Team Cheerios
From: General Mills
Introduced in 1997 This cereal was originally called Team USA Cheerios when it was introduced in 1996 as a limited edition tie-in with the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, GA. The name was changed in 1997 and the cereal was relaunched. Team Cheerios was described on cheerios.com like this: "3 delicious O's teamed up for one sweet crunch! "Nutritious whole grain cereal sweetened with brown sugar and frosting. Team Cheerios, three delicious O's that pack a sweet crunch. Pour yourself a bowl, dig in, and score great taste in every bite!" In May of 1997, a promotion took place where a helicopter dropped hundreds of boxes of Team Cheerios into a giant bowl in a football stadium in Lewisville, Texas. ![]() A 1998 television commercial showed various youth sports teams enjoying the cereal while the following voice-over played: "Who loves Team Cheerios? The Sting Rays were stung by them. Down south, the Barracudas are chomping them down. The Sharks are in a frenzy for them. Teams all over gave Team Cheerios a tryout and they loved it, because it's three awesome O's teamed up and sweetened up with frosting and brown sugar for an amazing sweet crunch your team will love. Don't forget the mighty Sandcrabs. Yeah, they dug right in. Team Cheerios. The taste your team will love." Click here to see all cereals from General Mills. Team Cheerios Cereal Theater

My son, who was 6 in 1997, says this is the best cereal he has ever eaten. He is always asking me to buy it for him but I can't find it anywhere. Does anyone know how I can order a case directly from the factory? Oh, usmcjedi, my son is now a marine too!

This cereal came out when I was 7 years old, I haven't thought of it for close to 14 years... I'm so unhappy that it is no longer available. And I shall have a special place in my stomach for this cereal for the rest of my life.

I'd love to watch skating and skiing with a bowl of special cereal. Signed, Sucker for limited-edition things. Comment submitted: 2/20/2010 (#1462) By brother
