	In 3/15/19, I met a man at a bar who developed this cereal. This man explained he was head of R and D at a cereal company back in the 1980's. He developed the Ghostbuster and Legend of Zelda cereal as well. He explained the reason this cereal did not make it to market was that the coating would fall over during the processing from the vibration on the convener belt. He explained the box was taken when the cereal was not going to make it to market.
