Toonfomercial: Winnie The Pooh gets his own cereal (1972)

 Here's another breakfast cereal that I don't remember seeing on store shelves in my area back in the day.

In 1972, Nabisco released Honey Crunchers, and contracted with Disney to produce an animated spot starring Winnie The Pooh (Sterling Holloway). Not sure if that is Sebastian Cabot (ex-Family Affair), who narrated some of those Pooh featurettes that eventually landed at NBC, as the announcer. Cabot would move on to his final series, Ghost Story, later in '72.

And 30 years later in 2002, we got Winnie The Pooh Hunny B's cereal.

And that didn't last long, either.
