I knew I'd find someplace else that remembered this!
My only memory of this cereal is the prize a sticker you put around your light switch and it glowed in the dark
I also had the Fruit Brute glow-in-the-dark light switch cover! I loved this creature and his cereal! He has retreated into the darkness due to humanity's ignorant selfishness and corporate greed! But he lives on in our hearts!
This was my Fav of all time! When It was out I only wanted this and King Vitamin when it was out. Those are the best Kids Sugar boxes ever.
AHA! Others who remember this cereal. My sister and I loved it. When they stopped making it we cried. It was a sad, sad day to be a kid.
I loved this cereal as a kid. I wish they still sold it locally. How about Frankenberry,Booberries, Count chocula? I recently tried some Frakenberry from Wal-mart, but it was nothing like the paste taste; they cut down on the sugar:)
i modeled a fruit brute cereal box the first time i used autodesk 3ds max loved this cereal as a child and even saved up the upc codes to get the soap towel and washrag
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i feel not alone!!!!!!!!!!! I too had the glow in the dark sticker....thought i was alone... fruit bruits, unite!!!!!!!!!
They made plastic squeaky toys of the 4 characters, about 9 inches tall, very good detail. Fruit Brute and BooBerry are harder to find than Chocula and Frankenberry.
