PODCAST: The Monster Cereals
There’s a lot of history behind those colorful boxes, in 2013, when all five of our Monster Cereals were on the shelf at the same time. We recently produced a podcast dedicated to the Monsters: Boo Berry, Count Chocula, Franken Berry, Frute Brute and Fruity Yummy Mummy. We cover the nostalgia, and have interviews with fans, box designers and the voice of Count Chocula! Find it on iTunes or on our blog.
