Anyone remember Puffa Puffa Rice? I referenced that cereal when I saw my neighbor’s hand-made outrigger canoe. He thought I was crazy…

Yeah, QUISP!!

I remember coco puffs had a special box that the back popped open like a pop up book and had a game that you used the cereal to play. It was kind of a gravity fed pin ball kinda thing. Anyone else remember that?

I remember grins smiles giggles and laughs.
They were shaped like little happy faces. Sort of like eating a bowl of emoticons.

Fruit Brute and Quisp were my faves. then when they discontinued Fruit Brute, I settled for Boo-Berry.
And just eat Cap’n Crunch as my Quisp substitute. :/

It’s good to know there are a lot of other old people on Neatorama!

My favorite wasn’t listed and was very short-lived: S.W. Graham. Mmm..the brown sugar and cinnamon variety was like heaven.

there was one called…Circus? I forget. but the back of the box had stuff you could cut out, maybe multilayered? early 60′s. I don’t even know what was inside but i could never wait to get a new box home.

My family loved Grins, Smiles, Giggles and Laughs. We collected so many magnets we covered the refrigerator door with the magnets. We had eight children in the family and everyone eating a bowl of Grins, Smiles, Giggles and Laughs made quite the noise.

Omg. Sir Grapefellow! I remember eating that for breakkie. And yes, Grins, Smiles, Giggles and Laughs, Kaboom, Super Sugar Crisp and Sugar Smacks. Mom was pretty cool IMHO.

Hmm, can’t seem to find “Grins…”

But oh man, King Vitamin used to creep me out as a kid.
