In 1977, I wrote to Kellogg's and asked that it be returned to the inventory. They advised that they had no plans to bring it back. Too bad. Today I can't have sugar. I would have loved to have it.

This was our favorite cereal in the 50s when we lived in the midwest. We never saw it again after we left there and came East, but we have never forgotten it. If they bring it back, I will probably eat cold cereal again!

It was a great cereal and definitely should be brought back in its original form. My impression was that it was dropped when cereal companies started pushing sugar coated cereals in fierce competition with each other. They wouldn't hang on to the 'tried and true' but sought to capture market with ever sickening, sugary sweetened junk.

My dad was very health-conscious. He chose Corn Soya for my first dry cereal. I remember sitting in my high chair watching my mom drizzle it with golden honey. I loved my breakfast! Can't remember exactly when it went away, but I have longed for it now for over 60 years! Please bring it back!!

In my eyes, Kellogg's would profit from making this cereal again. So many good comments here. We live in a world where everyone is interested in 'healthy'... So what is keeping Kellogg's from bringing back a winner?

I was a big fan of this cereal well into the 1950's, and all of a sudden it was no longer available. Still miss it today. I am sure that it just didn't make the "big seller" grade, and was just removed from their regular production line. Problem is for me, is that I can still taste it. Wish it was still available. MARK

My mother used to melt a bag of chocolate chips then add corn soya to it, stir gently then drop by the tablespoon onto wax paper. We could hardly wait until they hardened up enough to eat. They were a special treat when we found them in our tin lunch boxes.

My wife and I both remember this cereal as one of our favorites. I have pestered grocers to get Corn Soya back on the shelves again. I do not understand Kellogg's reluctance to reintroduce it. When I was a kid I would choose Corn Soya over Cheerios, Corn Flakes, Grape-nuts, Shredded Wheat, or any of the other cereals on the market then AND NOW. (I will have to admit I did choose Shredded Wheat a lot so I could collect the Straight Arrow cards in the packages!) I am sure the reason it was dropped had to do with the almighty dollar, but I do agree with "smurfswacker" that an even more basic reason it did not make money for them was probably a marketing issue. Would love to hear why Kellogg's is "not keen on a redo" I agree with all the other comments; it's the "best cereal I ever ate."

By smurfswacker

I never tasted the stuff, so I can't pass on its merits. However I'm pretty sure the product failed because of its name. Nobody knew what soya was, and in those days anything unknown was suspect. In an age of Krumbles and Jets and Smacks, the name did not fall trippingly from the tongue. And of course it wasn't coated with sugar! (just kidding) I think it was a major marketing mistake not to give the cereal a catchy name and mention the soya on the second line.
