Kellogg's orange flavored cereal

When I had this at home, it was called OJ's. It was orange flavored cereal made by Kellogg's to get kids to eat healthy fruit flavored cereal. It was similar to Trix but it only had an orange flavor. It was available during the 1960s and then it failed, because who wants an orange flavored cereal? It was discontinued shortly.

OJ’s… didn’t even know this existed. I can see why it didn’t survive though lol. Let me go back to my Cocoa Puffs.

Had a box once back in the day. Nasty stuff. Hardly surprising it was discontinued.

Ever wondered why we never see any orange flavored cereal anymore? That's 'cos big cereal don't want us to remember their failures. They want us stuck in the sugary stranglehold of chocolate and artificial rainbow flavors. Wake up, people!

Orange flavored cereal? Yuck! Whoever came up with this idea must have been downing a lot of screwdrivers. 😆

Gosh, can't imagine kids trading their Froot Loops or Trix for an orange flavored cereal. Must've been like eating Fanta for breakfast. 😂

OJ's was a fascinating failed product of an era where cereal manufacturers were trying all kinds of wild things. While the flavor was certainly bizarre, it wasn't unbearable. Some may even say it was an 'acquired taste'. The real issue with OJ's, however, was that it simply couldn't compete with more familiar, comforting cereal flavors. It was just too far out of left field, even for the experimental 60s.

Well, you have to hand it to Kellogg's for trying to sneak some fruit flavor into breakfast, but seriously, were any kids ever really going to enjoy a citrus-flavored cereal? I mean, come on!

Man, I actually remember eating OJ's as a kid! It was a weird cereal for sure but the taste wasn't half bad once you got used to it. Truly an experiment from a different time lol
