    General Mills 50th Anniversary ‘Monster Mash’ Cereal

      This year marks the 50th anniversary of General Mills’ Monster Cereals lineup, which began with the launch of chocolate-flavored Count Chocula and strawberry-flavored Franken Berry cereals in 1971. The blueberry-flavored cereal Boo Berry followed shortly after, premiering in 1973. Fruit Brute and Fruity Yummy Mummy, which were introduced in 1974 and 1988 respectively, will make their returns in the Monster Mash cereal after both being discontinued in 2014.

      The brief history of the General Mills Monster cereals

        In March 1971, General Mills unleashed Count Chocula and Franken Berry onto breakfast tables with their sugar-laced cereals.
        In February 1972, Franken Berry cereal joined the gang of cereals. The three remained constant throughout the years.
        Fruit Brute joined the fold in 1974 but was discontinued by 1982 and replaced in 1987 by Fruity Yummy Mummy, which was discontinued in 1992.
