Subject: Donuts/Donutz cereal

Written By: Kessa on 08/17/05 at 12:18 pm

Hey everyone,

For the longest time, I thought I remembered a cereal called "Doo Donuts".  I have a vague recollection of commercial that sang, "Doo donuts! Doh-licious!"  However, I can't find evidence of "Doo" Donuts cereal anywhere, and now I'm starting to think perhaps the simply "Donuts" cereal is the one I'm thinking about.  It's was little powdered sugar donuts, but where am I getting "doo" from?  Does anyone else remember this commercial?

It was early 80s I believe.

Thank you.  :)

Hiya.  Firstly, I just surfed in, having done a search. I was just eating some small powdered donuts (yum) and the term 'dinky donuts' popped into my head, and I began to think it was a food item from the 80's, a breakfast cereal no doubt. (I was born in '70, btw)

It was: http://theimaginaryworld.com/box408.jpg

However, what popped into my head next was a distinct memory of little powdered donut cereal, which I went on a search for too. Donutz.

Seen here: http://www.lavasurfer.com/cereal-generalmills5.html

While searching further I found the Donutz jingle in the form a of a WAV file, and sure enough it's the song in your head. :)

I'm so excited I found this bulletin. I've asked so many people about this cereal, but no one ever remembers it. I described it exactly like that. Check out this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8a8IQBzXf4
