    It's funny as a kid most of us hated when commercials came on, but now as an adult we look for those old commercials to have those nostalgic memories.

      They had style, unlike modernists today. As a man in his early 20s I can't recall any notable memories involving commercials. They are the thing you ignore that have little thought and effort put into them, except on the Superbowl where you watch for the commercials. Though the ones featuring music by Sammy Davis Jr. and Opera music are nice, the first being for a shaving commercial, though the latter is for a European or non-American brand (because our car designers can't create anything good anymore, and their advertisements (except for a TRUCK advertisement with WEST VIRGINIA)). The sleekest looking cars are the Hyundaes and Mitsubishis, the Chevy Camaro is the affordable exception and superior to both of the prior brands models. Ask about Cadillac in a racing game and you'll get a weird look from most children. America is in decline because our Car industry pros have as much brain power as a flea, our commercials pull off psychotically senseless commercials for legitimate products, or are medicinal infomercials that are selling pills that I don't need, or cheapo-gimmicks which 2-3rds of the time turn out to work not as advertised.
      If I could mass murder all modernist artists and psychologists and architects like the ones that built the cold unfeeling purpose-built Boston City Hall and made current 2008-2019 commercials... without repurcussions... I might've just chose to do so - and viewed it as a favor to humanity, rather than dispassionate immoral action. I hate millenials.
      I watch Japanese Anime, read Japanese porn, if they aren't science books or collegiate textbooks or unique UA-cam videos. I go on 4Chan's politically incorrect board, while going to college for a STEM degree. I avoid the hyper-sensitive pseudo-religious SJW hawks that have substituted meaningful insightful fulfilling purposeful religious charity and organization for self-gratification perverted extremes of moral crusades on Facebook, or giving a d*** about what any of them think.
      The reason I watch Japanese anime, is because if American shows aren't full of explosions, they're full of unrealistic impractical bs or real-life disturbing incidents about some disturbed people, or about some callous people's "Beverly Hills" lives that make you want to see them jump off a cliff of how entilted and utterly spoiled they are and how utterly poor excuses of influences they were on their children who curse like sailors instead of speak like human women. Rarely do American shows use gorgeous symphony pieces in any shows that draw attention to themselves as well as enrich the emotional moments they heighten after 8-9 episodes of build-up, and in Japanese anime it's an 80% chance if it's a serious Anime.
      Sometimes Japanese Anime even provoke philosophical inquiries like those of Full-Metal Alchemist, albeit not the historically accurate use or goal of the philosopher's stone in the West. "As in the manga, the series follows the adventures of brothers Edward and Alphonse Elric, who are searching for the Philosopher's Stone so they can regain the bodies they lost in a failed attempt to bring their dead mother back to life."

    I'm guessing the Boo Berry got laid off back in the 80s due to the recession at that time and hasn't appeared in commercials since. I hope he at least gets royalties from the few boxes of his cereal that he sells during Halloween. Fruit Bruit was fired, Yummy Mummy just didn't have the charisma that the others did. Frankenberry is reluctant to appear in public. Kind of like a cereal version of Dorris Day, without the love for animals. Count Chocula's career was boosted by Anne Rice for a bit.

Back in the day, the cereal was lightly flavored chocolate oats and CHOCOLATE marshmallows in the shape of little squares. NOW the oats in the cereal are glazed over and taste like Cocoa Puffs, and the marshmallows are WHITE.

    I got Fruit Brute in 2013 (I think) and thought it was awesome they were adding a new monster to the line up, then I found out it existed in the past and they actually rid of it, I liked it so I was extremely disappointed it was a limited time thing. I tried yummy mummy as well, but I didn't care for that one too much tbh. Still would be nice if both came back though.

    As part of the Quisp/Quake family, an orange-flavored cereal was introduced for a short time called "Orange Quangaroos." It, too, had a chalky orange taste (like Yummy Mummy and St. Joseph's Children's Aspirin) and I absolutely loved it.

      Count Chocula and Frankenberry have always been on the market all these years...they brought back Boo Berry because it was off the market for awhile and people wanted it back. Fruit Brute and Yummy Mummy were never brought back and have been off the market for decades.

    This is how I make my Count Chocula meal: Cereal in bowl. Add thick chocolate milk. Add chocolate cookie dips. Add bits of Areo bar with crushed pure milk chocolate bar. One tea spoon of sugar. Mix all contents with a spoon and only drink the milk along with the tiny soaked cereal & bits. Finish off by adding a heap of chocolate ice cream topped off with chocolate syrup. Eat slowly while watching your favourite TV show.
