One of my favorite cereals, GM's Bran Muffin Crisp was discontinued in 1989. To this date, I remember by disappointment.

That is so funny. I was watching Manhunter, and was drawn in as the hero strolled past vintage 1986 cereal boxes. Saw my now defunct all time favorite, Fruit and Fiber, (tropical fruit variety), on the shelf. Then I spotted THIS oddball, "Bran Muffin Crisp". I knew it must be a fad product, long out of production. Bran Muffin Crisp. What were they thinking?

Too funny. I just looked it up because I saw it in between known cereals in a scene in the movie Manhunter! LOL

I think I remember this one. Admittedly, I might be thinking of a different cereal, but if I'm right, it had sort of a brown sugar and cinnamon flavor and a heavy bran texture. It was okay but not great.
