Thanksgiving Dinner - Rice Krispie Treats


We had a parade of Krispie treat ads during the Halloween season and the cavalcade continues right into the season of plenty. To be honest, I never thought of Rice Krispie treats as a Thanksgiving food, but in 1941 Kellogg's had a different idea because that year they ran this little turkey-day themed advertisement complete with a cliche Indian. Nothing like racial stereotypes as appetizer for the coming feast.

Halloween Candy - Marshmallow Treats


If Post can get into the cereal's for Halloween business, so can Kellogg's. In 1951 they came out with this celebrity endorsement of 9-Minute Marshmallow crispy squares for trick or treaters. Not sure how you're supposed to put those in your bag, but I can say I've never gotten one for Halloween - ever.
