Dunk-A-Balls (Wheaties)

From: General Mills
Introduced in 1993

This limited edition cereal was described on the front of the box as "the breakfast of champions for kids... sweetened basketball whole wheat & corn puffs." The cereal pieces were round and striped to resemble little basketballs.

Upon the cereal's introduction, the back of the box had a cut-out activity where you could turn your cereal bowl into a basketball hoop.

For another basketball-themed cereal, see Kellogg's 3 Point Pops Cereal from 1999.

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

Wow, I loved these as a kid. They tasted so good. Cool shape too. I wish they'd bring these back. One of the best cereals of the 90's.

I remember this as a kid. I remember it having something of a Cinnamon flavor.

This wasn't bad but it wasn't that great to me either. I think I've eaten one or two boxes of it in my time. The concept and shape was fun as was the little way you could play with your cereal with the box in trying to shoot it in.

This was my favorite cereal as a kid. I remember eating a bowl for breakfast and dinner many times. I would love for it to be brought back. I'm sure my kids would love it too!!

I remember begging for this cereal. But once my parents got it for me I hated it and left the box in the cabinet until my mom threw it away.

Never tried it. Fun idea, although the name is a little suggestive. Wink.
