Dino Pebbles
From: Post
Introduced in 1990


This cereal was described on the box as a "wholesome sweetened rice cereal with marshmallows." The marshmallows were purple, yellow, orange and green dinosaurs, ala Dino - the TV cartoon character from The Flintstones. Later, marshmallows shaped like suns, palm trees and surf boards were added. The cereal itself was vanilla flavored.

Dino Pebbles was described in TV ads as being "Marshmallow Dino-licious!"

In one rendition, the cereal was subtitled "Dino's Dinosaur Party" and the marshmallows were changed to be 6 different dinosaur shapes.

Known premiums: Dino's Hawaiian Fun And Games Book, Dino Stickers, a Color Changing Dinosaur and a send-away offer for Dinosaur Cookie Cutters.


Dino Pebbles Cereal


The following description is from one of the very first boxes:

    I used to get in huge fights with my parents about eating too much of this amazing cereal. It offered the sugar I craved with the decadent marshmallows, all while giving me wholesome rice cereal. Yabba Dabba doooo!!!

    I still scan the shelves every time I grocery shop in hopes that Post has finally brought back this pinnacle of cereal deliciousness.

    This one is better than Fruity and Coco Pebbles. I'd buy a box if it came back.

    Does anyone have color changing dinosaurs from these boxes by chance? I'm looking for pink and green pterodactyl and would gladly buy one.

    The best cereal when I was 6 years old was Dino Pebbles cereal. I wish it would come back to New York City because I miss it a lot so please bring it back. Thank you. By Bonnie.

    Does any one know when this cereal came out - what year - and when they stopped making it. I have had Fruity Pebbles - I like those, but not as much as this cereal.
