Countdown to Halloween 2023 Day 16: Monster Mash Remix Cereal Box

Carmelia Creeper takes center stage on the box of the Monster Mash Remix cereal. She is joined by her cousin, Franken Berry, along with Count Chocula, Boo Berry, Frute Brute and Yummy Mummy. I missed out on the Monster Mash cereal that was released in 2021 for their fiftieth anniversary. The berry flavored cereal was a litter better than Carmelia Creeper's caramel apple flavored cereal and disappeared a little faster. This might be another one that I may not pick up again next year. I'm currently in the middle of the Count Chocula box and still have Franken Berry and Boo Berry to go. Yes, it takes me a while to finish off five family size boxes of Monster Cereals.

You can listen to the Monster Mash Remix at official Monster Cereal site.

Kaws Monsters Set

I might not have found all the monster cereals this year but I did manage to get a set of Kaws Monsters as an early Christmas present. The figurines arrived in the mail on Saturday from General Mills. I'm not planning to take them out of the plastic yet.

Christmas 2014 Haul: Monster Cereal Hot Wheels

In addition to the annual receiving of boring gray socks, multicolored boxer briefs and white t-shirts, I received two Monster Cereal Hot Wheels from 2013.

One is Boo Berry's Mig Rig:

The other one is Frute Brute's Smokin' Grille:

Here is what the backs looks like and this is actually the third wave of General Mills Hot Wheels made in 2013 but released in 2014. Shown are Frute Brute's Smokin' Grille, Cocoa Puffs' Texas Drive 'Em, Lucky Charms' Ford F-150, Boo Berry's Mig Rig, Count Chocula's '59 Chevy Delivery and Trix's Custom '62 Chevy (sorry for the blurry picture):

Countdown to Halloween 2013 Day 28: The Return of Frute Brute

I didn't spot the monster cereals at the local Wal-Mart Super Center until October 10th this year. They were on an endcap and had all five of the new boxes. I grabbed Frute Brute because I was looking more to his return than Yummy Mummy and I'm more partial to the werewolf. I figured I could pick that one up when I finished eating the Frute Brute cereal. It took my two weeks to finish the cherry flavor frosted cereal with spooky-fun marshmallows. Yeah, they didn't taste anywhere as good as I remembered them being when I was a kid. The local Wal-Mart Super Center still had a full endcap of the monster cereals on October 17th so I didn't pick any up since I still had half a box of Frute Brute. Big mistake for they were all gone when I returned to the store on October 24 (they weren't kidding when they said that they were only available for a limited time). I ended up getting Cap'n Crunch Halloween cereal instead (I still have half a box of that to finish). Anyway, here are scans of the return of Frute Brute cereal box:

I love the "Strange Things Happen Once In A Fruity Moon" cartoon on the back of the box:

The left side of the box has five Mega Monster Trivia questions (yikes, I only knew one):

Nutrition facts are on the right side of the box:

You can eat about half the box to get your recommended daily dose of whole grain:

The Frute Brute 2013 box is made out of 100% recycled paperboard:

I always liked the fact that the cherry flavored cereal is paw shaped. I should have taken pictures of all the cereal shapes but this was the only one that I didn't wolf down:
