The History of Licensed Breakfast Cereals - Documentary

[@MrDo-ww5cy]

🤣 The PAC-Man cereal joke caught me off guard. I’m loving all the videos. I wish I had time machine. So I could go back and buy all the boxes I could carry of TMNT cereal.

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

LOL, thanks :-) so many great cereals that will never be around again

[@alftanner866]

That tmnt cereal was terrible but the bowl was cool

[@cyrus2546]

@@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961 thanks for the video, I’m an adult who eats cereal for dinner more often than I’d like to admit.

[@RetroPlayer4000]

Just gimme the Nintendo cereal system and I'm good

[@johnlouisgood]

I used to love the Spiderman cereal. I sent away proofs of purchases to get a cereal bowl. Still use it! Lol

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

LOL, that's fantastic

[@spineknife2386]

Morning funnies was my favorite for awhile. The fold out readable box was a nice touch.

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

Yes it was!

[@nobodyimportant8859]

Will there more videos on this channel?

[@MattyHervey]

Will you make more videos on this channel?

[@evilsdemise1287]

Happy little cereals . . . . . . I just had to pause the video and get myself a bowl of Cinnamon Cpt. Toast Crunch (my own concoction). Never too old for cereal! The warcry of an 80s kid haha

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

Glad you enjoyed it. So many memories

[@douglasmcfarland9040]

Great job lived them nostalgia. Surprised you did not mention ghostbusters or He-man breakfast cereal.

[@ninjaturtlepies]

Ghostbusters is one of the longest-lasting licensed cereals of all time!

[@thewestvirginian6902]

This brings back a flood of memories! I had so many of these over the course of my childhood, and was so disappointed so many times lol. I had the Strawberry Shortcake, and while not horrid, I can safely say you didn´t miss much :) Thank you so much for posting this. The commercials really hit my nostalgia button this morning!

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you

[@shareofmoney]

Man, such great memories, not to mention the commercials! Never knew about the Urkel cereal!

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

Absolutely, I was getting the warm fuzzies while making this video

[@zartan138]

I won 3rd prize on Cookie Crisp. It was a fortune cookie that was at the bottom of the box. I won 25 icecreams from Baskin n Robbins. Once i was with my mom and dad in Galveston Tx. My dad was diving and bitching about something. I saw a Baskin n Robbins and as we passed by , i said “ can we use my coupons?” As i knew the coupons were in the glove box. My mom turned around and “ shhhh’d” me. I never got to use one coupon. But i did win 3rd out of a cereal box which to me is “ unheard of” I still have a fridge magnet of the cookie crisp “ cop car”

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

That's awesome, I don't know of anyone was ever Won anything in a contest like that

[@EugenioAngueira]

Very cool video! I loved getting the toys inside the boxes! Though not cereal, I still have the Quick spoons that you could mail order! As for my favorite cereal growing up, Cocola Pebbles with Quisp coming a close second!

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

Man I sure loved quisp breakfast cereal. There was a chain of supermarkets where I grew up that had a generic version of Popeye cereal that was identical to it

[@EugenioAngueira]

@@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961 They still make Quisp! You can find it on Amazon

[@cheekyphuzz_thegod8558]

I remember when Urkel-Os came out, but also being too afraid to ask my mom for them cause I knew she’d tell me nobody else in the house would eat it

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

LOL

[@anthonygiovanni8434]

The Strawberry 🍓 Shortcake cereal 🥣 part…! Haha wow I also wanted to try those back in the day. My cousin who lived with us for a while when I was growing up, would always smash the whole box before I could sneak some to try them out!

[@evilsdemise1287]

You know how they all say "its the best part of a complete breakfast", has anyone who's ever had cereal for breakfast ever eaten anything else to go with it? If I was having cereal for breakfast I was having cereal and nothing but cereal until I couldn't eat no more.

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

I tried it once but we didn't have any orange juice. My mother then said I was wasting food so I never tried it again

[@daerth4423]

Wow, that brought back some memories. From the time I was a kid to when I had kids of my own, the list of these that I haven't tried is much smaller the those I have. My favorite of the licensed ones would have to be Pac-man. I was obsessed with everything Pac-man in the early 80s and ate many a bowl of those back in the day.

[@MrTikbik2000]

I remember running this Cereal idea past you some time ago. Glad you took it and ran with it. VERY WELL DONE! However I have NO idea how I missed this 8 months ago and I’m just now seeing it!! 😅

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

Thanks for the tips!

[@brianacebedo2636]

Another great video by Patman. Did you know that Ralston Purina re-released the "GI Joe Battle Stars" as "WWF Superstars" cereal? Now you know!

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

I did not know that, thanks :-)

[@BlackArroToons]

The earliest Cereal I can remember was called General Mills' Kaboom (Cartoon Clown on the front) Cereal. With fruity flavored crunchy circus face pieces with different colors and star shaped marshmallows.

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

I completely forgot about that one

[@5HlNOBI]

OMG! C3PO's were awesome. I would still be buying them if they still made those. Very vanilla flavored with just a hint of hazelnut is how I remember them.

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

I had them but I don't recall what they tasted like

[@bigbossman2810]

Some of my favorite cereals when I was little was: 1. Pac-Man 2. Kellog's Big Mixx 3. Nerds 4. Cracklin Oat Bran 5. Pro-Grain 6. Mr. T Cereal

[@whiterabbit75]

0:07 I see my three all time favorite cereals. Smurf-Berry Crunch, G.I. Joe Action Stars, and Nerds.

[@TheCreapler]

Miss Pacman stop'd letting Pacman in her box the day after they got married that's why you never see them together.

[@orinoco500]

Like the episode. can you do one about cereal toys?

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

That's a good topic, I'm sure I can at some point thanks

[@BlackArroToons]

Great video on candy cereal/junkfood! My favorite is Cap'n Crunch Peanut Butter Crunch. But the worst cereal I ever tried was Star Wars C3PO's cereal. Something went wrong at the factory for my box, as it tasted really gross and bitter. Barely sweet.

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

Peanut butter crunch is really good but my favorite would have to be oops All berries

[@mackieken]

oh man Ioveed this video! thanks a bunch =D

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

Thank you so much

[@seanmyster6]

I never heard of Cracker Jack cereal before, but I'm guessing that they were corn puffs with a mix of caramel and peanut flavor. 😋

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

That actually sounds pretty good :-)

[@skiprockjr.6881]

So Clark Kent changed into Superman in order to shoplift a box of Corn Flakes? There's no way he could have waited in line and paid for it that quickly.

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

Good point, perhaps he use the express lane? :-)

Here's a little QC nostalgia for you: I have a daily tape from 1984 of cartoons on WQAD, and there's a Mr. T cereal commercial on it 🙂

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

Very strange, thanks for watching though

[@jameswayland2339]

Patman, I can guarantee you know what “strawberry shortcake “ cereal tastes like without eating it . It’s made by General Mills , same company that makes “Frankenberry “ . I’m pretty sure it’s the same cereal , without marshmallows.

[@gregturnbow6776]

I never cared one bit about the character or cartoon of Rainbow Brite, but I sure made mom get a couple boxes of the cereal every single week. I loved the fruity flavor and mom would buy it because I would actually eat breakfast. lol It was the exact same with the Strawberry Shortcake cereal.

[@Djclyve]

E.T. and Gremlins were really delicious. Wish they were still around. Ghostbusters 2 Cereal was good too... it had chocolate, fruit flavor, and marshmallows. There was nothing like it

[@theflyingninja1]

Sadly Gavin O'Herlihy, who played Chuck from Happy Days (and the main villain in Death Wish 3) died last month.

Smurf berry crunch is the best cereal ever created. I was also a fan of pac man and tmnt. Somehow I don't even remember there being transformers cereal, though it seems obvious that there would have been. Another great vid. 👍

[@JW666]

We didn't really have licensed cereals but there where licensed cereal toys such as Spider Man: The Animated Series & Space Jam. I even remember Batman & Robin collectable pogs 😜 The most common cereals I used to have where either Kellogs Frosted Flakes (or Kellogs Frosties as we call them) or Cocoa Puffs, but sometimes when I'm in a mood for some cereals today I either have Rice Crispies or Nesquick. I actually did get to try a more common american cereal back in 2004, which was Fruit Loops & they where pretty good. Never got the chance to try the other brands such as Captain Crunch, Count Chocula, Trix, Lucky Charms or Cookie Crisps (we don't have does brands here in Sweden).

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

Those are all excellent choices and I have tried everyone

I don't know if anyone's mentioned it, but I know of two (one that may or may not qualify) you missed. The Swedish Chef's Croonchy Stars cereal (you can find commericals on youtube of course). I loved that one and the TMNT cereal. There was also Nerds (based on the candy, though I don't know if it counts) cereal... it was... less tasty.

[@KasumiKenshirou]

IIRC, Croonchy Stars was the exact same cereal as the G.I. Joe Action Stars, just in a different box.

[@Mousie10]

@@KasumiKenshirou It wouldn't surprise me any. I never ate the GI Joe Action stars (That I can remember), but remember loving Croonchy Stars.

[@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961]

I liked the Ghostbusters cereal. At one point they had holograms on the box.

@@patmanqchistoryofeverythin2961 oh man you missed out! it was during that era in the late 80s when boxes had split flavors going on like the mario and zelda cereal. this was cool because one side was grape and the other was raspberry. i think there were different flavors too. it was cool!

The Transformers cereal was never actually released. Only a few test boxes were made before the idea was scrapped.
