I know that Fruit Brute and Yummmy Mummy is pretty much the same thing, but i want to know your favorite flavor. Tell about some memories you had eating the cereal or anything about it.

I'm partial to chocolate, but chocolate cereals give me a bellyache after a bit. It's a 3-way tie after that, but having to pick one, I went w/Frankenberry. I prefer them dry as  I find pink & blue milk repulsive.

 Frankenberry is my favorite, with Count Chocula a very close second.  Only every so often do I still eat Boo Berry.  Unfortunately Frankenberry has become very hard to find, so when I do run across it, I buy several boxes at a time.  As soon as the first commercials aired in the `70's us kids had to have it, although I was a more avid Freakies connoisseur than any other cereal.

 Yep slayergriffith, those were the commercials.  Been eating those cereals ever since, never out-grew them....never intend to.  Count Chocula and Boo Berry are easy enough to find, but Frankenberry has become a pain to locate.

Where i live you can only find Count Chocula. I can't find Boo Berry or Frankenberry anywhere. I've looked all over the place.

Here in Vega$, Count Chocula and his other General Mills fiends are only seasonal.
Halloween time is the only time C.C, F.B. B.B are on the shelves. Luckily, my wonderful Wife
purchases some boxes to last me a couple months.

I wouldn't eat this stuff if you paid me -- but I like the characters.  My pal Brent Schoonover, artist of the HORRORWOOD comic book has done some box art for these recently.....

I used to be a huge fan of BooBerry until General Mills changed all these cereals to a "whole grain" formula . . . effectively ruining them IMO.

The Creeper

I love them all but where I live you are lucky to find any of them only around Halloween.  It is sad because I would buy them often if they were here.   :(
Long live the UMA!
