A look at some of the early ideas for the third monster cereal that became BooBerry

I think they should still make some of those flavors!

I think it would be fun. A new monster cereal every year. And maybe bring the monsters out earlier. Maybe June til December

Where can I see full size pics? When I click they're still barely legible.

Lost Monster Cereal

Spent some time looking at these images:

I loved banana flavored cereal back in the day with cut up bananas in it, and now you can have banana milk to add to it.

Thanks!

They really wanted to bring an Orange cereal to market.

If Applespider was anything like Apple Jacks, I would have been all over it!

Yummy Mummy was an orange flavored cereal, although I could not find it anywhere this year.

I definitely would have bought a box of the Anna Banana if it was around.

I never tried Yummy Mummy or Fruit Brute. I thought Mummy was cinnamon apple and Fruit Brute was the vaguely fruit flavor like Trix. The Carmella is a caramel apple and it’s ok. Pleasant. Not bad in any way. It is green and I felt it could have had some brown mixed in to represent the caramel visually. That might just be me. I don’t think an orange cereal would work. The milk and citrus combo is very offputting to me. I definitely think a vanilla and banana would do well. I would love to see an oatmeal type flavor. Make it oatmeal and maple and based off of Sasquatch and a vanilla banana with a yeti.

I guess Freddy’s RAZOR BRAN didn’t make the cut…

Yummy Mummy wasn't part of this year's Monster Cereals but Count Chocula, Boo Berry, Franken Berry and Carmella Creeper were released. There was also the Monster Mash Remix cereal, which featured all the monsters including Yummy Mummy and Frute Brute (his name was changed from Fruit to Frute when he returned in 2013) on the box.
