Now what connection does this have to Mexican food? Not much except that the commercials for them were animated in Mexico by the same studio that animated the old Rocky and Bullwinkle show.

Sweet. Too young to have eaten them growing up, I think I'd vaguely heard of this stuff before.
But this makes them sound pretty awesome : ) I think I'm definitely going to have to purchase some if, as a colleague of mine at SqueezeOC attested, its just like Cap'n Crunch except that it doesn't jack up your gums.
That was always my main gripe w/ the stuff... eating captain crunch was a pleasurably painful experience. Of course, Quisps don't have crunchberries, so there be tradeoffs all around.
You're absolutely right about the shape of Quisp being more gum-friendly than Cap'n Crunch and I was going to mention that in the main body of my entry. Good call.
Don't forget Quisp's (almost) twin cereal Quake (same taste different shape)---Some ads of the day had them together in the same ad
I just found your blog today through a link on Elmo's page. Why is the food we grew up with so nostalgic? I'm cracking up at this Quisp page. I loved that cereal as a kid, and had heard it's available online now.
I'm enjoying reading through your reviews and having a lot of memories too. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for all the comments you have left, Blossom. You need to order some Quisp!
Quisp used to be available in a bulk bagged version which went under a different name. Sadly, I haven't seen it in a long time, and I forget what it was called, but it was the only way I could find Quisp out here in the LA area. Nice photos of the box, thanks. I'll have to order some soon. :)
Heh. I bought a box in October 2010 with exactly the same cartoon on the back. Now I'm a little concerned.
I would guess it had a much newer batch of cereal in it. But it's cool that you got some.
