It’s 1964 and Kellogg’s needs to sell some crisped-rice cereal. So, who better to handle the jingle duties, than the greatest rock band ever?
The Rolling Stones rocked out in this spot for Rice Krispies. Written by late member of the band, Brian Jones, the commercial only ran in England.

Would you like to take your cereal and/or ice cream-eating to the next level? What if those levels were beyond stratospheric… would that do it for ya?
Planetary Bowls are here to help, with each planet not only printed on the outside, but a full version is included at the bottom of each bowl. Of course, Pluto gets the shaft… again. But, you can still eat Cheerios out of Uranus.

It’s cereal monster season and, let’s face it, our current mascot trio is getting a bit long in the tooth. So, what if these outdated cereals were rebooted with a few modern-day monsters?
HalloweenCostumes.com is here to provide that visual with Cereal Killers. Imagine strolling the cereal aisle and not being able to decide between Friday The 13th-inspired ‘Machete Mateys,’ ‘Fruity Kruegers,’ or ‘Xenomorph Mallows.’
So, how about it, General Mills? Time for an update? Please keep Fruit Brute though.
The people have spoken, Lucky Charms… And they don’t want your annoying oat clusters getting in the way of their marshmallow eating anymore. Sure, those boring beige nuggets contain the only semblance of nutrition in your cereal, but there’s orange stars and blue moons to be had.
General Mills wants to give, at least a few people, what they want… An official box of Lucky Charms With Just Marshmallows. Although the cluster-less cereal will not be available to the general public — they’re actually part of a sweepstakes for only 10 lucky winners.
Those interested in their official box of Lucky Charms With Just Marshmallows can enter the contest by sharing a photo of yourself holding an imaginary box of Lucky Charms on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram with hashtag #Lucky10Sweepstakes. Do it… Biz Markie implores you.
