Fruit & Fibre: Dates, Raisins & Walnuts
From: Post
Introduced in 1982


This cereal was introduced at the same time as Post Fruit & Fibre with Apples & Cinnamon. A magazine ad introducing the cereals described them like this:

"Introducing Post Fruit & Fibre. It tastes so good, you forget the fiber. People are having trouble remembering the name of New Post Fruit & Fibre cereal. It's so delicious, they recall the real fruit - dates, raisins & walnuts or apples & cinnamon - but they forget the wholesome fiber. Remember to try it. Then try to remember it."

Company Description: Founded by C.W. Post, the company began in 1895 in Battle Creek, Michigan under the name Postum Cereals. Their first product was a coffee substitute called Postum. The first breakfast cereal to come from the company was Grape-Nuts in 1897... Read on and see all cereals from Post

My Mom introduced me to this cereal years ago. She just passed away and we were talking about all the good things she gave us and this cereal was on the list! I went thru a box a week and really wish it would be available once again here in Canada!

Why not bring such an awesome cereal back? People are searching the cereal isle for a fruit and fiber cereal but not finding one that compares with Post Fruit & Fiber. Please bring it back asap!

I would like Post to explain, in detail, why they stopped production of this cereal. It was a very good seller. I wish they would produce it again, with no changes whatsoever. I would buy it on a weekly basis, as I did before.
