From: General Mills


This cereal is alternately known simply as Twinkles. "Sugar-Sparkled" could have been a description, but it often appeared so large above "Twinkles" that most consumers would consider it part of the name.

Twinkles was also available in a Tutti Fruit variety.

Company Description: Officially created in 1928, General Mills traces it's history back to the 1860's and the ownership of two flour mills. Since then, the company has become the world's 6th largest food company - marketing to over 100 countries... Read on and see all cereals from General Mills

Twinkles was the first kid cereal that I remember. I loved getting it at the store.

I also remember the "book" idea. Sure brings back memories.

I remember my family had our first box of Twinkles cereal and while I was eating my first serving...(boy, that tasted good!) my sister picked up the box and it seemed to act like a book. I was about 3 years old at the time.

I seem to remember Twinkles as being the same as Alpha Bits.
