I remember this cereal well. They were flat wheat squarish shapes, sort of like brown wheat honeycombs and had lots of crannies to hold milk. Closest modern day cereral in taste and appearance would be wheat chex except stax was an imperfect square shape. And you could stack them. Very tasty - never understood why they vanished.

I agree with Keith! I truly liked Stax and miss this novel cereal. I especially like the ad line. "Stax, the cereal that is toasted in places where other cereals don't have places!" Perhaps the manufacturer should reconsider re-introducing Stax or be satisfied being associated with those remanufacturing sugar for children and disguised as nutritious cereal.

Stax - my all-time favorite cereal. Some dumb advertisements killed a good product.

This had to be the 60's. I remember it as a kid, and then it was gone. Good tasting cereal.

Yes, this was a GREAT after school snack. I'd buy it today if available. Man...the MSN article about products pulled too soon was a trip back down memory lane!!!

CAMPFIRE, where is the MSN article?? Can you please post a link?
