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.

*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.

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!

They're not that bad really.

Compared to Crunchy Nut:

Yeah it always amuses me that their so-called "healthy option" cereals are just as bad as the normal stuff. Take Special K - higher calorific content as normal Corn Flakes!
