WFMU discovered a big gallery of vintage cereal boxes posted by the South Florida Sun-Sentinel that are so bizarre they might as well be plucked from an edition of Photoshop Phriday. Anyone ever enjoyed a box of Mr. T?

    Like every cereal company, they cut back on sugar and people quit buying them. Just like Coke & Pepsi won't listen to the customers that don't want corn syrup in their soft drink.

    I love the King Vitamin cereal with the dvd of My Favorite Martian. Nothing spells a great morning like vitamins and My Favorite Martian

    Qwisp and Quake were the same cereal. General Mills introduced them at the same time, and created a rivalry between the two characters - then made kids vote on who would win. Qwisp won.
