    As a kid, I loved the short-lived Krazy Kow cereal, where the round pieces made the milk turn chocolate; my favorite cereal commercial was Life cereal with Mikey - I could recite every line in that ad at the age 5!

    No sugar needed! You can't escape the sugar in our candy coated breakfast cereals!
    There's usually a character that the kids won't let in the clubhouse and won't let them have any of the cereal, so this character is reduced to having to try to steal it. If the kids would just share it would be a better world. But no, they have to bully this Shaggy guy or the Trix rabbit or the Lucky Charms leprechaun or whoever. Fred even tried to keep it away from Barney. What kind of lesson is that for children?
    On a happier note, isn't Dale Evans gorgeous? What a dream girl.

    These little boxes were perfect for Saturday morning cartoons. They were perforated so you could lay them flat and pour milk into bag in box.

    I didn't remember how good the Post cereal commercials were. Some of the ones shown here were before my time. I do remember that for a while they had bird characters as mascots and there was a good but short-lived animated cartoon series with those characters. Jonathan Winters did voices on it and after awhile, I believe, they stopped writing parts for him and he just improvised.
    As I remember it, it was short-lived because a bunch of do-gooders saw to it that the practice of using characters for advertising in children's programming was forbidden. There was some justification for this, but the do-gooders of the Children's Television Workshop (I don't know if there was any overlap) turned it around and made a fortune selling Sesame Street merchandise. Apparently, they didn't see anything wrong with that. Sesame Street was also endlessly long, which surely wasn't so great for other production companies whose employees wanted to make a living.
    Sometime during my childhood, I developed an aversion to drinking milk and after that, for me cereal was just dust glued together with corn syrup and covered with sugar.

    Just a thought: What would you do if you lived in a major city and you entered the Post "Name the Pony" contest and actually won one of the 25 ponies? Think of the monthly bill your parents would receive for boarding the horse, with the charges for feeding it or for vet bills and general upkeep. Kids don't generally think practically about the consequences of entering a contest like that one, like what to do if you actually, you know...won the damn thing.

      That was a crazy prize, thanks for watching!

    • @laurencefinston7036
      @laurencefinston7036 5 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      As I remember, you could take cash in lieu of a prize. Also, any contract with a minor was and is invalid. I doubt that many ponies changed hands. Even in rural areas, most people weren't going to have the resources to maintain a pony. It's also possible that this ad was only shown regionally. Even back then, I doubt that a reputable horse breeder would have turned over a pony to a place where it wouldn't have been cared for properly. Still, I'm sure that a lot of parents weren't too happy about this contest.

    Whoever discovered that you could eat cereals right out of the variety pack mini-boxes by cutting a cuckoo door in the front probably became rich.
