[Continued…] I'm not so sure that THE GREAT AMERICAN CEREAL BOOK is right — I saw something (in Internet Archive) about this cereal having been introduced in the 1950s (which I find very plausible). I can say that this cereal's name didn't ring a bell with me — I've been hoping that I'd remember some long, lost wonderful cereal name — that I'd go, "Oh, yeah!!!That's what it was!!! I haven't thought of THAT name for FOREVER!!!!!" Tentatively, I believe that the cereal that Teri and Deb-6 and I so very fondly remember is or was POST BRAN & PRUNE FLAKES. I suspect that it was introduced before 1964 — my guess would be that it was introduced in the 1950s (just a guess, for now!). If it's the right cereal, then the raisin-colored discs that I definitely and distinctly remember weren't dried raisins — they were dried prunes (plums) — prune flakes (which, unless I'm dreadfully wrong, were flat like discs). And yes!! MrBreakfast.com's Cereal Project has a web page for this cereal!!! I'm not sure that I've come up with the right answer. I'd say that the odds are about 50/50. I'll keep (those of) you (who care) POSTed…. I hope that I've made at least one individual happy. Take care, Mark

Hi, everybody! I've been trying hard to identify the delicious cereal that Mom served us when we were little, in the early (and possibly middle) 1960s (Comment #953, below). Well…the book — THE GREAT AMERICAN CEREAL BOOK — that I've been waiting on finally arrived today!!!! I'm not sure, but I think that — at long, long last — I've identified the cereal that I (and Teri and Deb-6) loved so much. I think that it was POST BRAN & PRUNE FLAKES. However, according to MrBreakfast.com's Cereal Project, this cereal was introduced in 1970. If that's really true, then it can't be the cereal that I so fondly remember from my childhood. But, according to THE GREAT AMERICAN CEREAL BOOK, POST BRAN & PRUNE FLAKES was launched in 1964. If so, it could be the cereal that Teri and Deb-6 and I have been trying to identify!! (I think that it is.) There are a number of video-recordings of POST BRAN & PRUNE FLAKES TV ads in YouTube and in Internet Archive. I grew up in the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s (having been born in 1955). The TV ads that I've seen (and heard) so far are certainly of/from the early or middle 1960s — they're not from 1970. (I'd bet real money on it.) Still…I've always remembered eating this wonderful-tasting cereal when I was very young — no later than in the very early 1960s (1960, 1961, and 1962). [To be continued…]

Hi, everybody! Today is Thursday, August 13, 2020. This is Mark, who has pledged to identify a cereal that I loved and enjoyed in the early 1960s, when I was little. (Please see my comments, Comment #953 and Comment #2068.) Good news!! With any luck, I'll soon know the answer!! I just bought a copy of the book, "The Great American Cereal Book". It's my understanding that this book is encyclopedic. (I sure hope so.) I expect that I'll find the answer. As soon as I do, I'll (finally!!) post it here.

Hi. I'm trying to identify a UK cereal - it may have been in the US as well most likely. Can anyone remember this - would definitely have been 1981-83. The exact name eludes me - but I'm sure it had the word FLEET in the title. I recall the advert had some sort of nautical theme, with a captain looking at other ships through a spyglass - when the attacked the took the cereal as the bounty (naturally). I feel it's something like 'GOLDEN FLEETS' - pretty sure it wasn't golden nuggets. The cereal itself was like little golden pillows - think they were hollow. Damn.. .what was it???

Back in the 80's Kellogg’s had a Frosted Apple Cinnamon Mini Wheats with little pieces of apples on top. I know it was sadly discontinued. This was one of my favorite cereals growing up. I wish they would make this again mmm so good... It was not on your list of cereals.

One of my siblings' and my favorite cereals in the early/mid-1970s was Buc Wheats, which was a sort of honey-flavored version of Wheaties from General Mills. I may be missing it here, but it doesn't seem to be included and I'd love to see it represented!

Back in the 60's there was a cereal with sweet, flat, round discs. We called them 'smashed raisins' because they were with flakes like you would find in raisin bran. Does anyone remember this and have a name?

Apitezo, advertised in the early 1900s, here is a newspaper ad for it, came as both "biscuits" and "grains". Another possibly: "Nu-Life", from the early 1900s, see 1903 article "Simple Simon Down to Date", which mentions it as "whole wheat, twice cooked, and is ready to serve". It calls it a flake.
Also "IT" cereal - an ad from 1903 calls it "the new and better breakfast food", says "You will live longer if you eat It", and notes it requires no cooking. The ad appears February 5 1903. It seems the cereal was introduced in 1903.

Hi, Mr. Breakfast! I'm not seeing Maltex, Cream of Rice, or Cream of Wheat in your (awesome) list. All three are/were hot cereals (as you know). Also, in the 1960s (and probably before) there was a flake cereal that had lots of small (1/4"?), raisin-colored discs (which were basically flat and circular). I'd think that these discs were made from dried raisins. For the life of me, I can't recall the name of that cereal! I'm confident that it was made by one of the huge, well-known cereal companies--maybe Post, Kellogg's, General Mills, Nabisco, etc.

A cereal which may be of interest, "Jersey Jems" from circa 1928. They are described in an ad as a "delicious new breakfast dish" and as being "golden-brown kernels of toasted rice and other grains". Since there is quite a bit of interest in the Jersey Cereal Company, I feel they may be eligible to be listed on here.

I am glad I found this website. I am looking for the name of a cereal from the 70's that was a brown disk about the diameter of a penny, but about as thick as three pennies. I remember the commercial... it was animated and they would stack the cereal like coins, but they didn't resemble an actual coin they looked like they would be chocolate but they weren't. I have searched the Breakfast lists but can't find the name.
Note From Mr Breakfast: I thing the cereal you're looking for is Wheat Stax from General Mills.

Back around 2000-2002 or so, there was a cereal I believe was called "Krunchin' Rice Krispies", but I can't seem to find it ANYWHERE on the Internet. All I really remember where that the cereal pieces where large chunks as opposed to flaky, and the commercials for the cereal involved Snap, Crackle, and Pop standing on a Billboard and the police telling them to get down.

Do you have a page for Cera Nut Flakes? I don't know when they were sold from, but they appear in ads circa 1902-1904. One of these ads describes it as being a product of "National Pure Food Co. Ltd" and describes it as "made from wheat and nuts - crisp and delicious"

I haven't tried them myself, but there was a cereal in the early 1900s called Voigt Cream Flakes by the Voigt Cereal Food Co. Ltd. Advertisements for them appear in several 1903 newspapers. I don't know when they were introduced, but the earliest ads I came across come from 1903 and the latest come from 1911. I hope this information is useful, and that the cereal is eligible to have a listing on this website.

After searching the database I found an unrelated cereal from Post called Cranberry Almond Crunch that appears to have been discontinued, so maybe this kind is a rebranding of sorts?

I remember a wheat cereal from a major cereal company called Stax, or Staks, something like that. Thick roundish disks about the size of a quarter and thick as 2 quarters. Not solid, it was honeycombed inside. The gimmick was how many you could stack up. Late 60s up to maybe early 70s. Stayed crisp in milk, maybe too crisp, they could shred the inside of our mouth.

Why did Post alter the taste and texture of Post Grape Nuts? Add milk to a bowl of the same and it turns into a soppy mess. It wasn't that way before; when milk was added, the cereal remained crunchy and delicious. I think they ruined a good thing, like so many corporate decisions do these days!

Hi to Divemaster109 (comment 189). I loved that cereal too and I'm thinking it was maybe Kellogg's concentrate cereal. It was supposed to be used as added protein like wheat germ. It came in a small gold box with a metal spout on the side. Let me know if I'm correct. All I know is that the box barely lasted 2 days and it cost a little more than regular cereal.

In support of comment 204, as a child in the 1960's, I ate a cold cereal that is like crushed Wheat Chexs. It came in a paper bag with a resealable metal strip at the top that you rolled down and bent the tabs. I remember that it was bought at the local feed mill located in Cattaraugus County in NY. I remember it being called Sheddies but this is unlike the Sheddies in your databases which were squares.

There is one cereal that I remember, although I can't be sure of the name, I believe it was Old Fashioned Apple Raisin Crisp. It had flakes that were not flat like Wheaties (I believe they were made with oatmeal) and there were dried apple bits on them and I believe there were raisins in it. I can tell you the year (time frame) I know I had them was around 1986/1987. Beyond that, I don't remember anything other than I loved that cereal. Hope someone can remember something about them. :)

I didn't see any of the Little Bites Frosted Mini Wheats (honey nut and chocolate, I believe).
Note From Mr Breakfast: Hi Sarah. They're both in there under "F" for "Frosted". Bet you were looking under "L". I should consider moving them there. Thanks.

In addition to HONEY Almond Delight by Ralston, which you still have not added yet, you are also missing Honey Nut OAT Chex by Ralston. It was made for less than a year in 1990 and then it was not until 1999 that they reintroduced Honey Nut Chex - but it was not OAT it was and still is CORN. This is the box - it is American and needs added to your Chex Family ....

In 1991, Ralston made a new variety of Almond Delight Cereal called Honey Almond Delight. I have been to all Ralston pages and cannot find it on your website. Picture is attached showing the difference between regular flavor Almond Delight and HONEY flavor. The box pictured is the only example I have ever found.

In 1950s, my mom fed me a warm cereal, similar to Cream O Wheat, that was brown in color and she served it to us putting butter on it. Was much more flavor than C-O-Wheat. Decades later I asked her what it was and she says Grape Nuts. Might be having dementia setting in. It was not nugget sized like current GN, but again more like C-O-Wheat. Came in a box similar to C-O-Wheat. Have hunted sites like this, but no clues yet. Tried Wheatena, it is definitely NOT it. Thats very nasty stuff. Pored it out in the flowerbeds...

Double Chex... I have 1988 not 1992. Also 2 versions; Rice+wheat, Corn+Wheat. I Heart Double Chex: same 2 versions
Dates: frosted mini 2001....sugar frosted 1968...bran 1977....honey graham 1987....super sugar 1974
Wheat Chex began as Shredded Ralston... like tiny shredded wheat pillows... name changed around 1950, couple years later, shape changed to criss-cross like rice & corn...
I would add from 1966 Mr Waffles, regular and banana... these were Chex-shaped and no doubt lead to sugar frosted, sugar, and super sugar...
Finally, I have a question... random references here and there to an Oat Chex in the 1960s... I've never seen it... you?

I'm looking for a fruity cereal with marshmallows in a blue box from the early 70s. I believe it was only around a few years. I loved it and it was quickly gone from shelves. It would have been like fruity alpha-bits with marshmallows, but it was not a variation of alpha-bits. I know the answer is out there somwhere...!

In the late 1960's there was a cereal available in the Niagara Falls region (NY side) that came in simple brown bags with a kind of "Ralston Purina" checkered label. The cereal could be eaten cold or hot, and was a malted-wheat; the consistency was that of 'shreds' but these were a bit thicker than if you had crumbled a shredded wheat biscuit, and they were darker -- more like the color of Wheat Chex. The cereal seems to have disappeared, though it had a flavor and texture that rivaled anything else, hot or cold, on the market. Anyone else know more about this?

I was born in 1966 so I think it was maybe '72. The cereal were very tiny round flat discs, golden colored. I just remember it was yummy. Does anyone remember that cereal?
Also Buckwheats. I LOVED that cereal too.
