This Ad From The 1960s Is Selling Cereal, But Instead, You Just Get Nightmares

As silly as modern children’s cereal commercials are, at least their advertisements are positive. The cereal itself may be overpriced and filled with sugar, but the ads aren’t shocking.

But that’s not how it used to be. In the 1960s, innocent children were introduced to Krinkles. Krinkles was supposed to be a clown. Instead, he was some kind of hell demon that was hocking Sugar Rice Krinkles.

Needless to say, I’m super glad Sugar Rice Krinkles never took off. This only makes me love Snap, Crackle and Pop even more. They don’t haunt my dreams.
