Introduced in 2002
This cereal was described on the front of the box as a "crispy, sweetened multi-grain bone-shaped cereal with marshmallow bits."
It was released in coordination with Cartoon Network who was airing reruns of the cartoon Scooby-Doo when the cereal came out. At that time, the popularity of Scooby Doo was at a relative high. A live-action Scooby Doo film debuted in theaters a few months before this cereal debuted in grocery stores.
As part of this cereal's introduction, Kellogg's held an event in Branson, Missouri called the "Kellogg's Scooby-Doo Cereal Sound-Alike Challenge." Participants were asked to do their best Scooby-Doo voice impersonation while eating a mouthful of the new cereal. Hundreds of people took part. The winner was Jason Merrick of Cabot, Arkansas who won a year's supply of Cinnamon Marshmallow Scooby-Doo cereal.
In a press release about that event, dated August 27, 2002, Kellogg's described the cereal:
"Now available at supermarket and grocery stores nationwide, new Kellogg's Cinnamon Marshmallow Scooby-Doo Cereal brings the fun of Scooby-Doo and all the gang, including Fred, Daphne, Velma and Shaggy, to breakfast tables nationwide. Fortified with 12 vitamins and minerals, the cereal features crispy, sweetened cinnamon-flavored multi-grain bone-shaped cereal with marshmallow bits shaped like Shaggy, the Mystery Machine and the ghost. The cereal also includes fun Scooby-Doo games on the back of the box."
The activity panel on the back of the introductory box was called "Searching For Shaggy". It was a monster-filled haunted house scene where you were meant to look for Shaggy hiding in 10 different places. Zoinks!
The first 9 ingredients listed on the nutrition panel were corn flour, sugar, marshmallow bits, whole oat flour, partially hydrogenated soybean oil, fructose, dextrose, salt and cinnamon.

Scooby-Doo cereal was the real deal. Tasted great and should have stayed around longer. Bring it Back!

Best cereal. I think this should be brought back but with a name change since Scooby-doo isn't as popular like it used to be. The cereal is amazing and should be brought back!

Wow I remember this cereal, it was so good. I really liked the taste of these cinnamon puffs more than current cinnamon flavored cereals, add some marshmallows to make it even better.

I loved this cereal. I remember searching for it in the grocery bags when my parents came back from Walmart as a kid.

Oh my... I just love these. I wish they still made these. Great childhood memories. I use to get 3 boxes at a time just for myself.
