I remember. Then when they realised what a major cock-up they'd made, they held a phone vote so the public could 'decide' if the name should change back! With the millions that must have brought in through premium rate numbers, they probably made back the millions they wasted on the relaunch! Pathalogically evil - or devilishly clever?

And just for the record - they were originally called Coco Krispies (or was it Crispies?) and I have a Kelloggs recipe book to prove it.
