Removed "Obsesity in the US

One sentence talking about a lawsuit is frivolous. Companies are sued all the time, most multinationals I'd be surprised if they *don't* have a lawsuit against them at any one time. Wikipedia is not a place to list lawsuits against companies unless they are important. IE They are won.

or if it is a notable case eg, the McLibel case etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.149.253.172 (talk) 19:38, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

What about Kellogg not using mascots to advertise thier cereals anymore? Maybe the lawsuit isn't relevant, but this certainly is, and needs the note on obesity to support it.

Most of Kellogg's cereals contain more than 40% pure sugar. http://www.cbsnews.com/2300-204_162-10010475.html?tag=page 24.225.23.147 (talk) 13:07, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

Added the first Google'd citation where a citation was needed. This article still needs some major editing. 68.82.155.232 12:31, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

What about Raisin Nut Bran? There is no mention of it in the article... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.198.94.1 (talk) 18:17, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

merge small cereal stubs

It seems to me that C-3PO's and other Kellogg's cereal stubs should be merged here. There isn't enough to say about them to warrant an article. Superbeecat 01:12, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

I disagree. Having a separate pages is helpful to users when they want to link to individual products.Bobomejor 17:40, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Certaintly not! What does C-3PO cereal and all the other stuff have in relationship with Kellogg's cereal? Nothing right? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.57.83.51 (talk) 02:36, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Unsure?

A few of the years and such next to products on the product list have question marks or "possibly" in the statement. This makes the article sound unsure of itself. Unless these facts (C3POs cereal being "1984?" and Pokemon Cereal being "possiby in Australia, the UK and US) can be backed up, they should be removed. Glassbreaker5791 16:44, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Pig and Horse

Does anyone remember the ads from 2000 with the pig with sunglassed and the horse? What were their names? Can we say something about them on the article? Ryan Holloway 12:48, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

cereal and milk bar mascot

I seem to remember the cereal and milk bars having a cow mascot who had a milk gun. Does he have a name and should he be mentioned? ahref (talk) 22:44, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

Re-directed?

I don't think this page should be re-directed from Yogos. Most of the other foods have their own articles. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SuperSmashBros.Brawl777 (talk • contribs) 19:32, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Small discontinued cereal articles merged here

These were merged, and their original pages changed to redirects:

C-3PO's: old talk-page is here.
Krumbles: old talk-page is here

These were proposed to be merged:

Bigg Mixx: seems big enough to be its own article
Cinnamon Crunch Crispix: merged into Crispix instead. Page changed to redirect.

Pollution

This section sounds a little biased and the link is not accurate...please either update link or re-phrase section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.197.12.183 (talk) 14:57, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Marijuana pipe? Come on, it was a Bong!

The NYTimes says Phelps was smoking a "marijuana pipe".

Nutrition facts

I remember when I was a child (in the UK), at least I think I do, Kellog's boxes were one of the few to have nutrition information on them-- so this would be 30 years ago, they must have been one of the first. I remember it said "Enriched with Vitamin B12 and Iron", and there was a little scroll that said "The original and best" that, if I recall correctly, varied in colour between the different products (it was about the only way to tell them apart when they were all sideways on the shelf). Is this worth mentioning-- not the stuff about the scroll that's just to back up my claim that I am not making it up, I do remember it distinctly.

My family didn't speak much at breakfast.

Nearly 40 years later...

I still miss Puffa Puffa Rice, and here it is nearly 40 years later.

Is there a source for this product anymore? Where can I download advertisements for Puffa Puffa Rice, and those World War II cannons the rice was blasted from? Dexter Nextnumber (talk) 04:11, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Potential fair use: 70s ad

If somebody wants to add the correct rationale, this is a nice image used in another article: File:KellogsAdFamily1977.jpg. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk to me} 20:36, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Problems in 1999

In 1999 Kellogg was bypassed by General Mills, due to the low number of successful new product introductions, high prices, and slashed advertising budget. The new CEO Carlos Gutierrez, who took over in 1999, planned to respond to the competition by rethinking their current corporate strategy. According to New Products Management, by Merle Crawford and Anthony Di Benedetto, on page 86 of the tenth edition. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.91.15.51 (talk) 07:11, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
