They still make Quisp
I was always a Captain Crunch guy myself.
“I know nostalgia, but as a kid I remember the cereal(basically sweetend Cheerios), the cereal was at least basically teaching basic english grammar.”
You only had cheerios?
Meant to say - “I found this in the grocery store a couple months ago. Something I haven’t had since the 1970s I think”
Quisp was the best.
Alpha Bits….meh.
The link has a video of some old AlphaBits commercials with the Jackson Five. They feature a young Michael Jackson with black skin and his real nose.
We can still buy it in Canada, so they are making it.
And Lucky Charms and Honeycombs.
If you can’t buy it, it’s probably a local decision by your supermarket.
Crunch up some Cheerios and you’ll have Arabic Alphabits.
You can get an empty box in ebay for $100. Plus shipping.

Oh, I forgot Lucky Charms.
the bitcoin industry has trademarked the phrase “bit” when used in commerce.
Alpha-Bits can no longer be marketed by that name.
Don’t forget his partner Quake. Capt Crunch on steroids.
Why are the Capn's eyebrows on his hat?
I’ve often wondered what a Chinese version of Alpha Bits would look like ... it would be interesting, for sure.
