Count Chocula Cereal with Monster Marshmallows, Kids Breakfast Cereal, Halloween Limited Edition, Family Size, 18.8 oz

I take a guilty pleasure in loving this cereal. I'm sure it has not much real nutritional value but I don't buy it for healthy benefits. I buy it for taste bud happiness and a nostalgic connection to my childhood.I'm old enough to remember when this cereal first debuted and it was around 1971. At that time they made only Count Chocula and Frankenberry. I was in grade-school and my mom didn't let us kids eat too much sugary cereals except for as an occasional treat. I loved these cereals because they tasted so good with their big chunky cereal and tons of monster marshmallows and it turned your milk into either chocolate milk or Strawberry depending on whichever one you had. Plus it was a special treat. They also used to put "prizes" in the boxes back then. It was always a stupid cheap little plastic toy but it was a treasure to dig for and fight over the thing with siblings.Skip ahead 50+ years. I still only have this cereal on rare occasions. Usually around Halloween time because it seems that's the only time it's readily available. Amazon has it at a very reasonable price and it arrives fresh and fast when I order it here.My new twist with the count chocula is to dump a few handfuls over some vanilla ice-cream as a topping. It's really good!! I also eat it straight from the box as a dry snack. I suppose it's a healthier choice than potato chips, given the cereal is low in fat and actually does have several vitamins in it. And besidesI'll go back to celery sticks again in January. Lol

This is still as delicious as I remember it being as a kid! My kiddo enjoyed it also. Was so excited to see this is still being made and enjoyed that it came in a family size.

Count Chocula is soooo good. I have loved it since the 1970s! There really is nothing quite like it, and it's pretty much the only cereal I actually love to eat. It is like a breakfast and a dessert both, and it makes the best chocolate milk ever - and yeah I love the vampire imagery that comes with it which is perfect for the Halloween season. I know there are other monster cereals that go with it, and I have tried them all, but Count Chocula is the only one I will eat and really seriously enjoy every single time.

Count Chocula;When asked to count, box of cereal rudely ignored me, and refused to answer. Tasted fine.Boo Berries;What plant are these strange berries from?

My favorite cereal--I can now get it all year 'round!

Count Chocula, you old charmer! Opening a box of this cereal is like unearthing a treasure chest full of chocolatey nostalgia. It's not just a breakfast; it's a morning adventure with the one and only Count himself.First things first, let's talk about the marshmallows. Whoever at General Mills decided to add those marshmallows deserves a cereal Nobel Prize. They're like little puffs of magic that turn an ordinary bowl into a breakfast wonderland. Count Chocula, you sly dog, you know how to make mornings more exciting.The chocolate flavor is so rich, it's like having dessert before 9 AM. It's the kind of chocolaty goodness that makes you want to high-five whoever came up with the recipe. I mean, who knew breakfast could taste like a cocoa dream?The cereal pieces have just the right crunch – not too loud to wake up the neighbors, but enough to make you feel like you're conquering the day. It's like a gentle morning victory march in your mouth.Now, let's address the elephant in the room – or should I say, the vampire in the castle? Count Chocula's gaze from the box is both charming and slightly mischievous. It's like he's saying, "Go on, indulge in chocolatey happiness, my friend. I won't tell."

Hasn't changed in years. Just harder to find this year.Came in a bag, so the box that i planned to keep for halloween decorations was beat to ... didn't care for that, cost a star

Not just for Halloween.
