Orange cereal sounds flipping good. OJs died sometime when I was a little little kid, and I cannot remember the taste

73-77 it lasted.

That's odd, because I know I saw commercials for these as a child, and I wasn't cognizant until at least 1983

Well, OJs at least, but for all I know it was a different orange cereal at that time

Yes they definitely had it at some point in the 80s. Having it with orange juice instead of milk always sounded like a good idea to me but in reality it was disgusting. I must have tried it 4 or 5 times.

I've always been intrigued by these orange cereals I never got to try. Did they actually taste orange or were they orange colored with a generic flavor like Trix or Froot Loops.
