Monsters at the Beach

If you’d had this rad canvas bag in 1978, you could have taken Count Chocula, Franken Berry and Boo Berry to the beach with you. We’re really diggin’ the Monster swim gear!

Boo Berry has been a spooky delicious favorite since 1972 when he joined the Monster Cereals family with Count Chocula, Franken Berry, Frute Brute and Fruity Yummy Mummy. Which Monster Cereal is your favorite?!

The Explosion that Changed an Industry

An explosion ignited by flour dust at America’s largest flour mill - our Washburn “A” mill in Minneapolis - claimed 18 lives in 1878. It led us, and our competitors, to pursue safer milling technology in those early days. A tribute to the victims of the explosion is in a Minneapolis cemetery. We blogged about the Millers’ Monument here.
