Let's take a trip through time with that crunchy breakfast treat that doesn't taste like apples: Apple Jacks! Everybody's favorite cereal that shares a name with Colonial booze.

Apple Jacks were invented in 1965. Mmmm-mmm, describing food as invented make my mouth water

In the 70's we learned what 'A' and 'J' stood for...did you know there's cinnamon in there?

In the 80s we had the rise of the cool kid in commercials, and scary clowns with Micheal Jackson stickers.

In the 90s everybody realized that it didn't taste like apples...and that kids are jerks.

In the new century Apple Jacks became jackless...or something. And Introduced a new disturbing mascot. Applehead and Jackson Clown must have retired.
