Talk:Cheerios
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Does anyone else remember that Cheerios' slogan in the early 90s (maybe late 80s) was "The Unsinkable Taste of Cheerios" or something like that? I notice we have a huge gap in the slogan list after the 60s and am wondering if this can be added to fill part of it. But I can't remember clearly enough. Jwrosenzweig 16:00, 16 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Is Australian Cheerios "Multi-Grain" Cheerios?
The article says, 'In 2005, Cheerios was introduced to Australia through Nestle and has been marketed as a healthy cereal containing four whole grains; oats, wheat, corn and rice. It comes with the slogan "Four things are better than one." It is also marketed as "Four good reasons to love Cheerios." '
Cheerios in the US is well-known as an oat cereal, precluding the other three grains. However, one of the spinoffs (listed on the chart) is "Multi-Grain Cheerios," which indeed has all four grains. It isn't bad, actually, I've had it, but I wonder if General Mills and Nestlé introduced "Multi-Grain Cheerios" in Australia simply as "Cheerios?" That's the only way I can make sense of the slogans reported to be in use in OZ. Lord Geznikor 13:13, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] I don't think Fruity Cheerios had been discontinued.
I saw an advertisement for it during American daytime network television on July 13, 2007. I also saw it during the local morning news in Vancouver, British Columbia on July 30, 2007 (which is today when I posted this note). That note of discontinuation may need to be deleted until confirmation. -—Preceding unsigned comment added by 154.5.181.164 (talk)
- Fruity Cheerios is still listed as a part of the Cheerios family here. Also, General Mills has a product locator (here). I searched for Fruity Cheerios within 50 miles of my location and found dozens of stores that carry them. As far as I can tell, they haven't been discontinued. -NatureBoyMD 16:28, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Merge into one Article
I do not think it is necessary to have five articles on Cheerios. One is sufficient 212.43.71.31 17:44, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
I don't think that the articles should be merged. Cheerios is a type of cereal and then the others are spinoff cereals. Its like tv shows: you have an article for the first show, and then articles for all the spinoffs 69.157.62.49 (talk) 00:05, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
