Is Frankenberry Gay??

I mean, c’mon…
Anyone remember the commercials? He was pink, he had that effeminate lilt, and he was always submitting to Count Chocula’s meanness. I have to say that of the three, Booberry was my favorite. Lurking in the shadows, eyes half shut, half-grin on his face, he always reminded me of a satisfied jazz musician.

Yes, and at one time the same company had another gay cereal “Fruit Brute.”

I called General Mills to inquire, but like all generals these days, he invoked the “Don’t ask, don’t tell” policy. But I thought there were actually 4 halloweeny characters in the early days. IIRC (and, God forbid, I’m not claiming I do), there was a short-lived werewolf who hawked a fruity cereal. I searched the Web based on the Count (I always saw him as the Moe of the triumvirate), but that got me nowhere. Anyone else having these hallucinations?

And speaking of cereal reminiscence, does anyone remember Quisp’s arch nemesis. I remember (again, not necessarily correctly) some battle between Quisp and some other character, but for the life of me, I recall not who.

I think I’ll throw down a whole box of Quisp, catch a nice sugar buzz, and ride the Web until my questions are answered.


Mmm, sure…listen…
Do you think I could interest you in a pair of zircon-encrusted tweezers?

Thanks, MJ, that’s exactly what I was thinking of (obviously not as quickly as you)

It was Quisp versus Quake.

Quake originated as a miner character, a big burly sort with a jackhammer and a hardhat with a lamp on it. He dug his cereal from the very bowels of the earth.

Marketing research proved that hardhats were not the best image for selling cereal to kids in those days (late 1960s, when hardhats were beating up their big brothers and sisters on college campuses across the country), not to mention the “bowels” thing, so Quake somehow became a cowboy.

Then he disappeared altogether.

For those of you beyond me who care about this issue…

I seem to remember a short-lived addition to the trio (this was during the mid-80s) named ‘Yummy Mummy’.

I never tried it. I was a Frosted Flakes kind of guy back then.

oops damn ubb. I miss HTML.

Oh boy, I think I’ll go out and get me some delicious, syrupy Maypo? WTF kinda name is that for a cereal? Nasty…the things people eat, I swear. Maple oatmeal?
Cream Farina? Blech!

Sorry SB, but if any of the three were gay, it was definitely Booberry. What’s up with that corny ass smile?

Don’t you think Frakenberry and Lucky from “Lucky Charms” would make a cute couple?

Like I said- HE’S HIGH AS A KITE!! I want that flavor!!

RE: “Always after me Lucky Charms!”
I think Father Francis Mulcahy must have been the voice of “Lucky”…

Frankeberry gay? Let’s see:

Pink?
Elton John glasses?
Buttocks-shaped cranium?

I’d say that’s an “affirmative.”

I bought my first box of Quisp ever the other day!

I remember all the Quisp & Quake commercials from the Saturday morning cartoons. But my mom would never buy it, even though she did buy the Capt. Crunch cereals (whose most abundant ingredient was sugar).

The Q cereals disappeared from stores. Then the other day, Safeway had a display of them, so I picked up a box.

Tastes just like Capt. Crunch. shrug


Wrong thinking is punished, right thinking is just as swiftly rewarded. You’ll find it an effective combination.

No! No! No! The greatest and gayest cereal was Nintendo Breakfast System! Three guys Mario, Luigi, and Link sharing the same box. The only way to get three guys in yer mouth at the same time! Incredibly gay!

(Sung to the Mario Brothers theme)
Nin-ten-do its a cereal now
Nin-ten-do its for breakfast wow!
Shove-three-guys into yer face
theyre-the-best youll ever taste!
Put-yer-dong into the bowl
en-dan-ger youre Godly soul


Kisses!
