Gallery of Vintage Cereal Boxes [PICS]
blog.wfmu.org — This gallery of retro cereal boxes is fun not necessarily because it's a reminder of all the crap I used to eat, but rather because it nicely highlights all the cereal ideas and kooky design ideas that didn't quite work.

- hollywoodphony, on 06/30/2008, -0/+6I feel pretty good about myself, because apparently I'm too young to have remembered these.
- Wolfghost, on 06/30/2008, -0/+1I was feeling bad about myself, because my childhood predates these "vintage" cereal boxes. Then I remembered I always have eaten healthier breakfasts. Feel pretty good now.
- Lawofnations, on 06/30/2008, -0/+8"King Vit A Man; have breakfast with the king, King Vit A Man..." What? You guys still don't sing that tune to yourself? Fine. I'll be over here in the corner shredding my gums on some Captain Crunch with Crunchberrie surprises. Just don't get kookoo for cocoa puffs.

- plainOldFool, on 06/30/2008, -0/+1Which one, the 70's cartoon or the old guy from Police Academy?
- edwartica, on 06/30/2008, -0/+2Yes! I think I ran down the aisle screaming when I saw that old guy on the box, circa 1980something.
- squishee, on 06/30/2008, -0/+3I bet his eyes follow you around the room.
- 2ptyou, on 06/30/2008, -0/+6That Brawny guy looks like he's about to punch you in the face with flavor.
- MaddieCakes, on 06/30/2008, -0/+5I remember King Vitaman cereal, that ***** was my favorite.
- franklymister, on 06/30/2008, -0/+3It looks like Howard Dean was King Vitaman in a past life.
- edwartica, on 06/30/2008, -0/+2No crispy critters?
- tj241, on 06/30/2008, -0/+2Crunchy Loggs! lmao Yum!
- staxofmax, on 06/30/2008, -0/+3I don't trust the Twinkles guy....
- hormel, on 06/30/2008, -0/+1OKs?? Really? Why would you give your product a name associated with mediocrity...looks like it comes with free scotch tape in every box too. The kids must have loved it.
- DeskFlyer, on 06/30/2008, -0/+2I'm still convinced that King Vitamin was actually Bob Uecker.
- SniperZ, on 06/30/2008, -0/+1Did people not know how to draw very well back then?
- Dumbledorito, on 06/30/2008, -0/+1"OK's" should (by the look off the box) be called "K.O's."
Or, since it has a burly Scottsman, they'd probably sell well as "EAT YER BLOODY CEREAL YA WEE JESSIE!" - diggB, on 06/30/2008, -0/+1I just had a "whoa!" moment. I fondly remember playing with the "Royal Racing Coach" as a kid, but I had no memory of where it came from until now. God, I feel old ...
- AlexanderZero, on 06/30/2008, -0/+2Dugg for Crunchy Logs.
- VyPR, on 06/30/2008, -0/+2Hey Crazy Cow! What's that stuff you're pouring on my cereal? Milk, you say? Well, where did it come fr --- OH GOOD LORD!!!
- suntzusputnik, on 06/30/2008, -1/+1mad cow lol
- borez, on 06/30/2008, -0/+2When I was a kid, I opened every box of Shredded Wheat ( UK ) in a supermarket to get the free 'Doctor Who' sticker cards, my parents and the supermarket management where not my friends that day...I can tell you.
