Yummy Mummy
 Yummy Mummy 
From: General Mills
Introduced in 1988 Yummy Mummy was a "fruit flavor frosted cereal with vanilla flavor marshmallows". The yellow marshmallow pieces seemed to resemble the shape of a head. On some of the cereal boxes, they were referred to as "monster mallows". The other cereal pieces were red and orange. They may have also been intended to resemble heads, but the primarily circular nuggets with two slits in the center looked more like colorful little pig snouts. Yummy Mummy cereal was the last of the General Mills monster-themed cereals to be introduced. The cereals began with Count Chocula and Franken Berry in 1971. Boo Berry and Fruit Brute came out in 1973 and 1974, receptively. Then more than a decade later in 1988, Yummy Mummy appeared. Shortly after it's introduction, the name of cereal was elongated to Fruity Yummy Mummy. While most cereal enthusiasts group Yummy Mummy with the other monster cereals, Cereal Mascot Expert Topher Ellis notes that General Mills never officially declared Yummy Mummy to be part it's monster cereal collection. At MrBreakfast.com, we've opted include Yummy Mummy in the monster cereal classification. Yummy Mummy was advertised in commercials with Franken Berry and Count Chocula. The boxes of all five monster-themed cereals shared many similar characteristics. Unfortunately, Yummy Mummy had the shortest life of any it's monster associates. The cereal only lasted until the early nineties. Click here to see all cereals from General Mills. This cereal belongs to the following Mr Breakfast Cereal Families: Featuring:

I would definitely buy a case of Yummy Mummy! It's tough for me to find any monster cereal where I live in Baltimore, MD. Comment submitted: 9/24/2012 (#9210) By McFlyJr1979
Everyone thought I made this up... that I was nuts. Now I can prove Yummy Mummy was real. Thanks! Comment submitted: 5/2/2012 (#7507) By ChewChew
I thought Fruit Brute tasted better than Yummy Mummy. I would buy both if they ever decided to release them. Comment submitted: 12/1/2011 (#5856) By correction
General Mills absolutely DID say that Yummy Mummy WAS a Monster Cereal. Every box said so on the bottom flap 'Monster Cereal' and every box from series 1 thru 5 showed the other monsters introducing themselves on the back panel. Yummy Mummy is and always was a Monster Cereal. Comment submitted: 11/12/2011 (#5731) By J-Tube
Good cereal, but terrible for you. Have you looked at the ingredients on those things? Look up "Count Chocula Ingredient List" in YouTube to get an idea of what you are dealing with. Comment submitted: 10/24/2011 (#5561) By Mark

Come on General Mills... don't you get it? You created an icon and now you deny us your gift. I love Boo, Frank and Count, but PLEASE just for one Halloween, let the Mummy come out and play. Limited edition... just one month... whatever... I'll buy 100. Comment submitted: 9/1/2010 (#2775) By WakeUpU
