Ahhhh...Quake! If you're my age, you remember that both Quisp and Quake were introduced as a pair. They interacted in their commercials. A sort of rivalry. Quake lost.

At least we know what drove the Cocoa Puffs bird off the rails.

Back when they weren't afraid of the "s" word.

Of course now it's all made with high fructose corn syrup, (unless you are in the EU).

God, it's nice to have so many people chiming in about Quisp.
I thought I was alone.
QUISP!

I was surprised to see Quisp in a store within the last couple months. It was a Dollar Tree, Family Dollar, or some such discount knockoff place in Denver.

Then again, no telling how long it had been there.

The good news is it's available online. The bad news is it's $4.79/box.

I was actually a Quake man myself.

Hey, guys, time's up, we can't decide on a name for the new cereal, so we're just going to run our four top choices together. S'aright? S'aright.

The photorealistic illustrations of yore are quite unappetizing.
