    I can still taste this cereal when I think about it! It was not as sweet as some others, which made the chocolate flavor much stronger. It was my favorite as a child, and if I had a time machine, I'd be grabbing a few boxes to bring back with me. Actually, I'd probably just stay in the '70s, come to think of it.

    Tried it when I was a kid. I loved it but my mother said it was too sweet for us to buy another box.

    I loved this cereal and no one seems to believe it really ever existed. I consider this the forerunner of Chocolate Cheerios!

    I loved this cereal! I too thought I had just imagined it because everyone always looks at me like I'm crazy when I mention it! Anyway Kellogg's, can you bring it back?

    This was perhaps my favorite cereal. God bless The Internet for confirming its existence because I felt like I had imagined it.
