Cocoa Pebbles (1971) vs. Cocoa Krispies (1958)

[@kevseb66]

Cocoa Pebbles stays crunchier longer. That alone makes it the winner for me.

[@Cacti88]

Cocoa Krispies is probably my #1 cereal of all time...great mouth feel and flavor

[@John_Locke_108]

There's nothing close to them. I'm 45 and I still love 'em. Cooca Pebbles, on the other hand, are just horrible.

[@fabienzaca]

Please don't say mouth feel..

[@serenafalcon2611]

This channel is making my bf have a dozen cereal boxes on the fridge and half of them are open at the same time...but i still have to make breakfast and dinner 😐. So...

[@CerealTimeTV]

Lol! I'm glad this channel is having an effect on your relationship.

[@TheRobobuck]

I was definitely more into Cocoa Pebbles, but like you said you can't go wrong with either.

[@SurfingPikachu17]

My Dad would always buy me and my sister Cocoa and Fruity Pebble's, though I can't get past how it seemed like I was eating fish flakes XD I wish there was actually more to those cereals. I have to go with Cocoa Krispies :)

[@RobertJRoman]

Ogg also had a wife named Kell. Kell & Ogg. The story of Snap, Crackle, and Pop taking over the complete Krispies brand extension is an interesting one in itself. It makes sense, allowing quick, familiar branding for short-term flavors, like Birthday Cake Krispies and such.

[@CerealTimeTV]

Ooh, is there any commercial with Kell?

[@RobertJRoman]

@@CerealTimeTV I don't remember. But you can see them both in figurine form, along with their son Marty, here: thumbs.worthpoint.com/zoom/images1/1/1216/13/vintage-1967-kelloggs-ogg-kell_1_59e3759088e7b6b495e12a35732a26b0.jpg

[@RobertJRoman]

That link works on my laptop, but not on my phone. Just googling "Kell and Ogg figurines" should bring it up, though.

[@lemonadesnake]

In the UK, Cocoa Krispies are called Coco Pops and we still have Coco the Monkey

[@Evenine]

Same with Australia! Must be a Commonwealth thing.

[@pennysanchez7656]

@@Evenine “We rather have a bowl of Coco Pops!”

[@randomcatonxbox]

Same in austira

[@MisterMikeTexas]

That was briefly George Costanza's nickname! 😂😂

[@lemonadesnake]

@@Evenine pretty sure it’s due to British and Australian culture being similar. It’s like how video games are in the PAL region over there.

[@gildersleevefan67]

I remember being with my mom at the store in 1971 when Pebbles came out. She bought one of each. The Fruity Pebbles were so good, and the Cocoa Pebbles never turned me on. Same with Count Chocula. The only cooca cereal my tastebuds liked were Cocoa Puffs.

[@Cheeky_moon]

I grew up with Celiac disease. My mom didn’t like the idea that there was malt flavoring in Cocoa Krispies so she always bought me Cocoa Pebbles. At 35 years old I still crave a bowl of Fruity or Cocoa Pebbles every now and then. 🦕

[@ozjthomas]

Interesting history lesson. I’ve only tried cocoa Krispies and was never a huge cocoa cereal fiend, but I think from a marketing perspective, the consistent mascots of pebbles helps it.

[@martincraw7698]

I love both cereals cause I love chocolate flavored cereal.

[@jaysonspears464]

Then you gotta try chocolate life cereal...most intense chocolate cereal

[@kaylemathewcomendador6964]

Last time I was in a grocery store (a week ago) that monkey was the mascot for Cocoa Krispies, and I live somewhere in Asia. So your right on him still being a thing in other countries. I never payed much attention to those brands. But this was a neat informative video still.

[@AaronCMounts]

Same for the Middle East; it's the monkey mascot. However, it's the three elves, when you see the cereal on shelves across North America.

[@therayvalenzuela8885]

Cocoa and Fruity pebbles share favorite #1 cereal of all time. So much nostalgia memories of me enjoying this cereal and still to this day until I’m gone from this earth! You almost had a fail pour from the cocoa pebbles pour. lol😄

[@xingcat]

OMG, I 100% forgot about Tusk until I heard the song, and remembered that ad!

[@brianbethel881]

I'd swear this guy has my entire music and NES collection in his videos lol

[@XjrhughesX]

I'm a Cocoa Pebbles fan myself. Growing up with the Flintstones, I never questioned it.

[@chonkokong513]

I like both, they have a great choco taste and makes delicious chocolate milk although choco pebbles have a stronger flavor to me.

[@matthewmensah481]

I've had these when I was young!

[@Zyztem300]

In indonesia we actually have coco cereal with coco the monkey They have two different coco cereal There's coco loops ( basically it's just froot loops but chocolate ) & coco pops ( basically it's just an indonesian version of cocoa krispies ) the cereal still available today though

[@grittyshaker]

Krispies is my “go to” although, I’d still eat Pebbles

[@RayOfHope612]

I'm a Cocoa Krispies man. Coco the monkey is my all time favorite cereal mascot

[@BugsyFoga]

Its honestly been a good while since I had Cocoa krispies , but I remembered liking , not sure which one I preferred though.

[@alexmoore4219]

Cocoa pebbles have a much more addicting texture imo. That light airy crunch does a lot more than the simple flake

[@Cleanframe]

You really need to get in touch with Matt Mcmuscles cause he's a real cereal head like you!

[@memesthatmakemelaughforhou476]

revisiting the first of your videos I ever saw. I love this channel

[@CerealTimeTV]

Thanks for watching! 🙌🏾

[@ambercrow5451]

My husband only likes the pebbles but I argue they tastes the same, but I love many cereals.

[@melissageiger71]

My affair with cereal is life long.🥣..and even before Seinfeld was a thing, I always had several boxes of cereal at really all times....in my early 20s girls would ask me, how do you stay so thin, I'd say cereal, three times a day...so this channel here is made for a girl like me!! ❤️ It!! As for Krispies vs pebbles.. Krispies all the way.. though I've definitely had my share of pebbles, chocolate and fruity, to me, they just turn to mush too quickly...good taste, and leave tasty milk..they, for me, just get too mushy too fast... P.S. love your bowl man!!

[@javianwilliams7463]

Just seeing the ending, your probably gonna get HBOmax when it comes out, right?

[@CerealTimeTV]

I think I get it automatically with my HBO subscription

[@javianwilliams7463]

This is great, I just picked up both to blind test both of these... I'm a Pebbles fan more BTW

[@bernardomarkuskampffdemelo4323]

Those Flintstones toys from the 70's look truly awesome!

[@rhondafurr7000]

I prefer Cocoa Krispie’s. I love your cereal bowl. Where did you get it?

[@CerealTimeTV]

Search “spilt milk bowl” on Amazon or Google and it should pop up

[@thomasb-o6j]

I agree with you about Cocoa Pebbles, I like the texture better as well. They’re definitely my favorite chocolate cereal.

[@JaniceCarter-ws7lu]

🤔...alot people went for the Flinstones, but the Rice Krispies were the best🙋🏾‍♀️ I like that bowl😊

[@Redkodiak1994]

Cant really debate which is better i like both

[@JohnPaul348]

*BARNIE MY PEBBLES*

[@hans4462]

Hans S. 1 second ago When I was younger, my sister and I liked Cocoa Krispies, but recently when I had a bowl full, they didn't have that chocolaty taste like I remember. So now I prefer Cocoa Pebbles that have a richer, chocolaty flavor. Yabba-Dabba-Doo!

[@CharlesBacho]

All the Cocoa Krispies commercials have really smooth animations and I love them. (Also Tusk is the best mascot)

[@eastcoastandloveit3857]

Thank you !. Stay safe

[@orangeandbluebook]

In truth, I like both because 2 reasons. 1. When my mom was younger she like The Flintstones a lot on TV. 2. I like both companys of these series and in the UK Coco the Monkey was the mascot for Coco Pops.

[@pinkarachnia1020]

Here in Australia, we’ve kept Coco the monkey to this day. Our version is also called Coco Pops instead of Cocoa Krispies. Thanks for the great video, Gabe!

[@realpsh]

Same in 🇬🇧 uk

[@MyMelodyOfTheHeart]

Between these two cereals, I think the Cocoa Pebbles tends to shout "CHOCOLATE!" while Cocoa Krispies whispers it. When I watch the Cocoa Krispies commercial with the Coco the monkey mascot, I get Froot Loop Commercials with Toucan Sam vibes from it.

[@back2s0ul]

Cocoa Krispies was one of my favorite cereals growing up. To me Cocoa Pebbles had a more interesting flavor, maybe because I had it less often or maybe it's whatever natural flavoring they use, while Krispies had a more neutral but still tasty flavor.

[@MisterMikeTexas]

I loved Cocoa Pebbles and Cocoa Krispies! And Cocoa Puffs, too!

[@bobpayne2726]

Omg... I'm so old I remember all those commercials. When I was a kid ,one of my favorite cereal was rice krinckles Do they still make them?

[@chonkokong513]

You didn't hear that pebbles cereal is rice krincles only flatten and with cocoa and fruity flavor, short anwser: no.

[@PACKERMAN2077]

Man listening to this vintage weird Fred Flintstone really reminds me of how Dan castellaneta was going for that when he was doing Homer for the first time.

[@HogBurger]

Eating a bowl of Cocoa Krispies. They’re delicious

[@k001daddy]

I have always preferred the Pebbles texture, but now I have to try the chocolatiness of Cocoa Krispies, plus that inimitable sound!

[@MoviemaniaNick]

Great choice! Cocoa Pebbles for me anyday. Lol

[@ambicmanching1970]

Cocoa Krispies (fun fact:in uk they call coco pops) Right Gabe (edit: Coco the monkey is my favorite mascot and in Uk He still the cocoa Krispies Mascot) And Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarney My Pebbles

Barney, my pebbles! 😂

[@kcfragrance3114]

Coco pebbles for sure loved the video

[@karameldreem]

Snap,Crackle, & Pop have been the Mascots for Cocoa Krispies for 20 years

[@Newbiegunsmith6]

This is the first cereal time comparison video I have seen

[@Dan-hc1ow]

I used to really like both flavors of Pebbles, but something happened to the texture that turned me off. If you ever find Mom's Best Crispy Cocoa Rice, I recommend giving that a try. Much closer to what Pebbles used to taste like, in my opinion. However, I am really liking both flavors of Pebbles Crunch'd!. Fantastically crunchy version with lots of flavor. I do like Cocoa Krispies but yes, you have to wolf them down before they turn to soup.

[@GenoCuddy]

I'm a Pebblehead from wayback so bigups for making the right decision, lol.

[@carolinecampbell7998]

I have definitely never had cocoa pebbles (or fruity pebbles either) and I do not think I have had Kellogg's cocoa Krispies. My mom refused to buy anything with more sugar than original Life when I was growing up. However, I have tried Whole Foods cocoa rice crisps and I really like them. I would think they taste more like cocoa Krispies than cocoa pebbles, though they have less sugar than either. I find it fascinating that while Rice Krispies had Snap, Crackle and Pop before there were cocoa Krispies, cocoa Krispies didn't always have Snap, Crackle and Pop. I guess Kellogg's originally wanted to market cocoa Krispies independently from Rice Krispies and then changed their minds. By the way, I will have to send you some Coco Pops shells (which you can only get in Europe, interestingly enough) next time I go to The Netherlands.

[@otletekmobile7210]

Cocoa Pebbles Extreme Chocolatey Blast!, with Bamm-Bamm on the box.

[@YMPictures]

I’m not a fan of Coca Pebbles, I always thought it tasted more artificial.

[@maxduran6042]

Gabe, i need to ask, did you drom some cereal off the bowl at 3:42?I benn having this doubt whit any other pour clip in ceral time videos

[@CerealTimeTV]

Yes, I definitely dropped some

[@billruppert5483]

I love Cocoa Pebbles but I don't think I've ever had Coco Krispies. Well I guess I will have to remedy that, thanks Gabe.

[@brittneyhall2829]

I don't know which 1 I like best

[@PrincessPerfectMe]

In the UK we have cocoa krispies but they're called coco pops and it's the most popular chocolate cereal. Coco pops has a bunch of variations (coco pops porridge, coco rocks, coco pops chocos, white chocolate coco pops, etc) and is in every kid's kitchen! It's crazy to me how unpopular cocoa krispies are in the US when coco pops are so popular in the UK.

[@moreedcola6837]

I think it’s because of the fact that Coco is kinda the only mascot that still regularly appears in advertising, Frosties hasn’t had a proper ad since 2007, Tony is basically just a mascot for the box only, and Snap, Crackle and Pop are basically irrelevant, they haven’t had an ad since the mid-2000s so kids are more likely to identify with Coco and his cereals.

[@COMPFUNK2]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who was disappointed when Coco the monkey disappeared. I would pick Cocoa Krispies over Cocoa Pebbles, but not for that reason. Don’t sleep on Dino Pebbles though (I mean, Marshmallow Pebbles are CLOSE, but...).

[@moreedcola6837]

He’s still around in the UK, and was still singing well into the 2000s, the jingle stopped being used around 2007. We had him even before ‘91, Coco began advertising the cereal in 1963 and went through a couple design changes, evolving into his final form in 1986. They dropped the 2D style in 2011, and he’s been a 3D character ever since.

[@OsakaJoe01]

I ate both, but IMO, Pebbles was more chocolatey. Cocoa Puffs was my favorite chocolate cereal though...

[@tncookies]

I prefer chocolaty cereals to fruity cereals, and Cocoa Pebbles has always been one of my favorites. That Snagglepuss commercial was awesome, though.

[@Fireflyanimations299]

I remember having a cereal bowl with Coco the monkey on it, the bowl also had a built in straw to sip the milk.

[@salvatoredangelo7026]

Hands down for me will be Cocoa Pebbles thanks for posting 😀

cocoa krispies is by far my favorite

[@the1magageneral323]

Needed more milk just to handle Cocoa Pebbles.

[@AndyEinstman]

Happy Saturday

[@crystalgrose]

#TeamCocoaPebbles They make a deeper chocolate milk in my opinion, and I also like the texture of Pebbles over Krispies. Both very good cereals though. I grew up eating both. One day, I may make a BIG BOWL 🥣 of a combination of both 😁🍫🥛

[@MochaMoonpie]

"Barney, my Pebbles!" "Barney, my Pebbles!" "Barney, my Pebbles!" What's up cereal-heads, today we're gonna talk about ~ M Y P E B B L E S . ~ Personally, I am more into the Pebbles. I do put Coco above all other Krispies mascots. I didn't experience him too often - I know you did, you lucky SOB (I was but a baby in 1991, and most of my kid memories with the brand are with the three little ear specialists.) It's probably because it was a more upbeat ad campaign and I would have mostly remember that, with the song, colors, movement, and humor. I was that kind of kid, anyway. 😛 But still, my Pebbles. I am sliiightly a cocoa cereal person, yet haven't eaten anything of that nature in forevers, but yes, I really like the rice-based cocoa cereals the best. 🙂
