Kelloggs Chocos

Has anyone noticed that they re-launched this cereal as "Coco Pops Mega Munchers"? Why would they rebrand and relaunch a product if it did badly enough for them to have originally discontinued it? Not that I mind personally, I used to like these when I was a kid, they did my health a favour when they stopped making them, but I just wonder why they think sticking a different label on them will make them sell better this time round, especially if it's an established label which will just get people confusing them for their more successful product.

Were these coco pops? Some idiot PC ****** decided that because somewhere a black kid was being called a coco pop the fact it was also the name of a cereal meant the term was racist.

I'm Indian and even I think it's a bit barmy.

If it wasn't coco pops then I'm just chatting out of my arse. Next post is downwards. KThnxBy.

Pretty sure I bought a box of COCO POPS the other day. This must be something different.

*sigh* Coco Pops have always been called Coco Pops, and they're still on sale. The cereal I'm talking about used to be called Chocos. They stopped making it ages ago, and I've just found it again under the name "Coco Pops Mega Munchers", which is different than plain vanilla (err..) Coco Pops.

A few years ago they were rebranded Choco Krispies for a year or two, but then later changed back to Coco Pops.

These mega muncher things are proper gash. My mum bought some by accident and was severely reprimanded.

 

[manveruppd]

Ah, but have you never tried combining traditional Coco Pops with Chocos/Mega Munchers? A few Coco Pops at the bottom of the bowl and a layer of Chocos floating on top. It ensured the milk would go chocolatey while the Chocos were still crunchy!

I used to pour them over weetabix. Yum.

What name did coco pops change to a few years back, after a stupid tv vote in advert?

That sucked nuts. Glad they're back to coco pops now, saying that im a fan of 'Choco Snaps' from coop, thats my student budgeting tip!

 

[shaffaaf27]

i thought coco rocks were disbanded?

coco pops taste and smell like feet

Never really understood the point of this type of cereal tbh. If you want to eat chocolate for breakfast then eat some chocolate.

Don't kid yourself into thinking this crap is any healthier.
