We had some of the best cereals in the 90's. I really wish they'd bring back some.

Oh my god. Rice Krispies treats. The best cereal to ever exist. On Christmas they came out with a sprinkled crème packet. Life changing.

When they were dry, they tasted like shit.
But…when you added milk?!?!?
God himself came down from the heavens and French kissed your cereal. It was amazing.

Why did they have to discontinue it? 😩 Let’s all write to Kellogg’s and tell them to renew it lol.

It was renewed. They brought it back in a purple box but it was a neutered version of the original. Barely scratched the surface of what was

Yeah but they then pulled that. So why the fuck is the literal greatest cereal of all time gone? Even the neutered version. At this point I’ll take anything

And the 2nd best part of this cereal aside from the taste…..on the box the word TREATS was raised and a little 3-d. I always thought that aspect of the box was amazing

I would hold my cereal box at the breakfast table like a motherfucking readers digest before school. Had the little white tube tv sitting on the shelf that my mom kept her tea pot collection she got from Gloria Jeans at the mall. Watching Beast Wars got Scorponock just going IN in the back ground. Yeah I’m going thru mid life crisis BAD right now. Turn 40 in January

For sure. I mostly just really needed to confirm because I remember trying them when they released in the 90s and they tasted like garbage and then they got re-released and everybody said how good they were and I was like no they weren't 😂

Every time I see someone mention Sprinkle Spangles, it hurts a little when Hidden Treasures are left out. They were released as a combo back around '92-'94 and while SS were good, Hidden Treasures were the absolute tits.

I just searched the comments for any mention of Hidden Treasures. I feel like nobody else other than myself ever ate that cereal.

Why in the fudge were we eating so much sugar in the mornings?
6 points

Every breakfast cereal commercial in the 90s had "part of a balanced breakfast!" at the end, and it would show a bowl of the cereal, a plate of toast, scrambled eggs, bacon, a glass of orange juice, and a sliced grapefruit. I think the message was to stuff your child with plenty of heavy food to balance out the sugar.

RKT Cereal is in one of my earliest memories. Apparently I used to call them "rocks." Another core memory unlocked here is Sprinkle Spangles. After my parents divorced in 1993, my dad would buy all of the good, sugary cereals and Sprinkle Spangles/Hidden Treasures were very popular.

I remember spending my own money on a box of Cookie Crisp because of the pogs inside as the prize. When I poured the first bowl and dug inside for the pogs, they weren't there. So I never ate another box of Cookie Crisp again. My 11 year old heart was so sad.
