Old Enough To Remember?

I'll have to ask "Anoyne".

We had a similar cereal assortment called "Variety" - in fact it is still going today, although you now only get 8 packets rather than 10.

There were always two packs of the least interesting one (Corn Flakes) and one each of the tastier ones....

Necker knobs, milk in glass bottles (delivered!), free puppies/kittens, rabbits foot, coaster brakes, bee hives (hair), Aunt Bea, spud guns, $3 Christmas trees, bottled pop machines, real ice cream - everywhere, the only people with cell phones were 007 and Maxwell Smart, the only person with an Apple watch was Dick Tracey and when you were off work you were Off Work.

I believe you can get them at some of the finer motels across the USA that advertise free breakfasts.

And they had the little perforations that opened up down the middle so the whole box became your cereal bowl. That's why they were great for road trips and camping.
