From: Kellogg's
Introduced in 1987


This cereal was described on the box as "flakes of corn coated with nuts & real honey". It's best remembered for a series of commercials where "Nut & Honey" was misheard as "Nothin', Honey". For example: If you asked, "What is this page about?" I would reply, "Nut & Honey". Misinterpreting my reply as "Nothin' Honey", you would ask me again, thus forcing me to say the name of cereal again and again.

The ingredients listed on the nutrition panel (in 1993) were corn, sugar, peanuts, corn syrup, partially hydrogenated cottonseed oil, salt, honey, malt flavoring and a sprinkling of vitamins and iron.





The box of Nut & Honey Crunch that we were lucky enough to acquire was from 1993 and featured "Free TV Song Cards (Collect All Three!)" with our particular box having a cut-out card with the theme song to the TV show Green Acres. Another box we've seen had a faux morning newspaper on the back called "The Daily Flake".

We've assessed this cereal's year of introduction to be 1987 based on the earliest television ads we could find.

Other Nut & Honey Crunch cereals from Kellogg's included Nut & Honey Crunch Biscuits and Nut & Honey Crunch O's.

It's back! However, it's been rebranded as 'Honey Nut Frosted Flakes' complete with Tony the Tiger on the box.

I want them to make this cereal again! I miss it so much. I do not know why it was discontinued? This was by far the best cereal. Please, please bring it back.

I've always loved the commercials for this cereal. My favorite was the one with the couple where the man is eating the cereal and the woman is playing the piano. 'He lies like a dog.'

I frequently look for this cereal at local grocery stores but haven't seen it in several years. Many years ago on the back of the box, it featured a recipe for Tin Roof Sundae Pie. The crust was made from the cereal mixed with light corn syrup and peanut butter, then filled with ice cream and topped with chocolate covered peanuts and chocolate syrup. It is the best ice cream pie ever! I haven't been able to find a suitable substitute cereal because this particular cereal had peanuts on the flakes of cereal. Would love to make that pie again for a summertime treat!

I loved this cereal. I used it as a must have ingredient for coating my oven baked chicken, pork chops, fish, etc... I really miss it.

This was my favorite cereal. Absolutely nothing tastes as good. Why was it removed from the grocery store shelves? Who makes these decisions, anyway? What kind of market research was done to render its removal? Come on! Reconsider and please produce this cereal, once again.
