Post Toasties
From: Post
Introduced in 1904


The complete name of this cereal was Post Toasties Double-Crisp Corn Flakes.

This cereal was described in a 1939 ad as "The Wake-Up Food... Tops in taste!... Low in Price!... Rich in Quick-Food Energy!"

This cereal is also listed in our database as Post Toasties Corn Flakes. Often times, "Corn Flakes" was incredibly small on the box in relationship to the word "Toasties". Other times, "Corn Flakes" took top or equal billing.

Company Description: Founded by C.W. Post, the company began in 1895 in Battle Creek, Michigan under the name Postum Cereals. Their first product was a coffee substitute called Postum. The first breakfast cereal to come from the company was Grape-Nuts in 1897... Read on and see all cereals from Post

With all do respect, I have to disagree with the others. I was born in 65 and ate my share of Post Toasties and found that Kellogg's Corn Flakes had a much better corn taste. Another long running cereal has just ended production... Alpha Bits is no longer around.

I am now 97. In my youth, I was a follower of Inspector Post and applied for all of the official badges. I was still with him when he was reported to have gone to South America on a case. I miss him.

LOVE Post Toasties, and have since a kid. I used to bake with them until they disappeared... now I'm disappointed. Would be ELATED if they were brought back on the shelves! So much better for you than those 'sugar-coated' cereals! And TASTE better too!

I, too, miss this cereal. The current corn cereals just do not have that great taste! - MHJ

I agree with some of the other reviews. Post Toasties corn flakes were much better than some of the other brands of corn flakes. By CJ

I loved Post Toasties. Why is it when they have a great product they quit making it and go with the yucky stuff ugh. I know they won't bring them back. That's the way life is with the people in power that run the show. Marjorie Merriweather Post is dead by now. I guess so goes Post Toasties.

Post Toasties had a much better flavor than that popular corn flake cereal that remains on the store shelves. I don't know when Post stopped making their cereal, I just know that it disappeared from the shelves a number of years ago. Too bad. If I could buy them again I would throw my current box into the trash.
