Randomly thought about this cereal today.
This was one of my favorites as a kid. Mom didn’t usually let us have sugary cereals.

The kid in the commercial looks a young Josh Peck. He was born a year before the commercial aired so it’s not him, but still…

Those cereals would not get soft in milk. No matter how long

This is the one cereal I was allowed to have at Nana and Grandpa's. We could basically have unlimited Ovaltine though. With from what i learned was raw milk she got in the mornings from the dairy a bit down the road.

I wonder if cereal makers and pet food makers buy the shape extruder from the same place.

Pet food makers and cereal makers used to be the same thing sometimes. I remember a few cereal boxes with Purina logos on them.

I feel like this was a cheap one to buy because we would have a ton of it.

These were so boring, hard and dry. They could sit in the milk for like 30 minutes before they started to soften up. My mom loved buying these, they made me beg for kicks they were so bad.

Between this, and the Punky Brewster cartoon post I saw earlier, I'm going to have dueling repetitive theme songs in my head all day. Fuck you, OP.

I don't remember this! I'm kinda surprised, I take myself as a bit of an 80s/90s cereal connoisseur.
