I was looking up some old cereals and came across this website

[Topher’s Breakfast Cereal Character Guide](http://www.lavasurfer.com/cereal-generalmills.html)

There were a lot of breakfast cereals I never heard of. I also thought it was interesting to see how they modified the characters over the yeas. Such as Count Chocula became less vicious looking and in my opinon looks like a wuss compare to what he used to look like 🙂

I didn’t realize they had a whale selling Vanilla Crunch (A Cap’n Crunch type cereal)

The original Trix Rabbit was much cuter also.

So I thought I’d post the link and see what people think breakfast cereals of yesteryear.

Not really a question here but I thought it might produce some interesting comments

Thanks

Man, that site looks like it was made in 1997. Oh wait, it was.
