Not exactly BBs Cereal, but some of the delicious products they helped promo;

  Fleischman's Margarine -- 2 Ads 

       

       

  Snackin' USA /Krunchers' Potato Chips  2 versions 

       

     

     

Is that Michael Bolton sitting on the hood of the woodie?

I've never gone Surfin' USA but I've certainly been Snackin' USA many, many, many, many times.

This is the cassette featured in the Fleischman's ad.



That's a much different Surf's Up album than the one I know.  And the song "Surf's Up" isn't even on it. 

As a kid growing up in the late 80s and 90s, this and the Still Cruisin' cassette was my introduction to the BB's music, always had one in the Walkman!

Cartoon Mike was looking pretty buff here.

There was a BB Wheaties box, back in the '80s.

Holy moly. The things I learn on this board.

This page says it was "made by fans"...

I'm guessing this was just a jokey thing that someone made.

I think I had to mail order mine, but it wasn't fan made (unless the fans worked for General Mills).

Back in the late 1980's / early 1990's there were kiosks in shopping malls where you could go in and have your picture superimposed on the cover of People Magazine, The New York Times, Wheaties boxes, etc.  They would either take your picture or you could bring them a picture.  This is back in the pre-Photoshop days where you couldn't just to it at home.  There also may have been a promotion from General Mills where if you sent them your photo and some amount of money they would would do the same.  My understanding is that these boxes originated one of those two ways, and were not a product you could buy on store shelves.

What was on the rare live recordings cassette?  First I've heard of this.
