3 Iconic Cereal Mascots That Take You Straight Back to Childhood

 Introduction

No matter what age you are there is nothing quite like getting a bowl of cereal in the morning and being greeted by a familiar, smiling face. For many of us as children cereal mascots weren't just a marketing strategy, they were a constant during commercial breaks during out favorite shows, a character we always knew would show up. In the blog today I am going to list the top 3 most memorable cereal mascots that were always there even when we didn't realize.

The Crazy Squares

The crazy squares are one of the most iconic mascots, even though they are better known as the "Cinnamon Toast Crunch Characters". The Crazy Squares had a special way to make even commercials entertaining, with their crazy mischievous acts and over-the-top antics. Thanks to their playfulness, the Crazy Squares helped breakfast become less of a routine but more as a time to use imagination. Overtime, they’ve become a staple in advertising, proving that even newer mascots can earn a nostalgic spot in people’s hearts.

Tony the Tiger

Tony the Tiger is one of the all-time greatest cereal mascots, instantly recognizable by his boisterous voice and catchphrase: "They're grrreat!" Tony brought a special talent from the start of filling each commercial with excitement and enthusiasm. His saying and energy really brought kids from all over to copy and have fun of their own, especially while eating breakfast. Over the decades, Tony has become more than just a mascot, he’s an icon that shows some things never go out of style, proven by the fact that his famous slogan is still repeated by generations.

Trix Rabbit

The Trix Rabbit pursued his favorite cereal for decades only to be greeted with the classic line: "Silly rabbit, Trix are for kids!" His stubborn persistence and goofiness made him immortal, transforming every ad into a ridiculous short story. Never winning the prize, the Trix Rabbit is one of the most memorable mascots, proof that hard work never loses its appeal.
