Summer holidays are a much-awaited time for students as it offers a break from the regular routine of school. These holidays are a time to relax, recharge and indulge in various activities. One of the most exciting parts of summer holidays is the opportunity to go on vacation and explore new places. During the summer holidays, students have the freedom to spend their time as they please. Some may choose to go on family vacations, while others may opt for summer camps or classes to learn something new. These holidays are also a chance to catch up on hobbies and interests that may have taken a backseat during the school year.

Did You Know Apple Jacks Will Not Be Sold To Bullies

Friends, I talked a bit about this with my article on the Hostess Twinkie and Fruit Pie mascots – but it is true that I do more than my fair share of thinking about the various characters that act as spokesman for food products. For example, were you aware that the very first mascot for Kellogg’s Apple Jacks showed up in the mid to late ’60s – and he was known as the Apple Guy? In fact the character is made up of an apple, wearing pants, gloves, and even a hat and bow tie. Not only could he sing and dance but as the fruit produce spokesman for Apple Jacks cereal – he could also deny the sale of the cereal to bullies!

While I am not 100% positive on this I believe the animation for these animated commercials were handled by the DePatie-Freleng animation studio – the same folks behind those great Pink Panther openings and theatrical shorts. The comments section for this particular ad state that is was Paul Frees (The Haunted Mansion, The Hobbit) who voiced the Apple Guy – considering the iconic actor’s vast amount of voice work I have no reason to doubt it. In addition just like with this second television commercial for Apple Jacks cereal – one of the bullies is most definitely voiced by the legendary Mel Blanc.

As I understand it, the Apple Guy acted as the mascot for Apple Jacks until 1971 – when he was replaced by The Apple Jacks Kids – a boy and girl who looked like they had been doodled by a child. They would appear as mascots in commercials and even show up on the boxes of Apple Jacks cereal until 1992 – it would be 12 years later after focusing on real children – when two new mascots would show up. These were a cinnamon stick known as CinnaMon and an apple called Bad Apple – although to my knowledge they have yet to deny sales to bullies.

The Pop-Tarts Bowl will have an ‘edible mascot.’ We’ve got some important questions.

Winning players will reportedly celebrate by taking bites of the mascot. Will that hurt him?

Every year, bowl season gets zanier. The Duke’s Mayo Bowl and its postgame “mayo bath,” the french fry bath after the Idaho Famous Potatoes Bowl, and the Cheez-It Bowl’s Cheez-It themed hotel rooms are just a few of the ways that college bowl games are trying to set themselves apart from the crowd.

Having a bowl-specific mascot is nothing new. But in its first year on the scene, the Pop-Tarts Bowl is changing the game with a new, edible bowl mascot.

According to The Athletic’s Nicole Auerbach, the winner of the bowl game — between an ACC and Big 12 team in Orlando, Fla. on Dec. 28 — will get the opportunity to take a bite out of the mascot in celebration. Literally.

But we still have a few questions .

Is the mascot sentient?

Most mascots have eyes. Even the ones meant to represent inanimate objects, like the Syracuse Orange, have a face. The Pop-Tart, too, will have a face based on renderings.

Will it scream in peril as it is broken into hundreds of pieces and consumed by the winning team? How much of it is even edible in the first place? Is it like a plant, bearing fruit but continuing to grow?

What would Gritty and the Phanatic taste like?

Let’s face it — if there were two mascots most likely to be cannibals it would be Gritty and the Phanatic.

The Pop-Tarts Bowl photos make the Pop-Tarts Bowl mascot look like a strawberry Pop-Tart. But if you took a bite out of Gritty or the Phanatic, what would they taste like?

In Pop-Tart terms, the closest thing to the Phanatic (in that both of them are green) would be the Apple Jacks Pop-Tart. The only orange Pop-Tart is the Pumpkin Pie Pop-Tart, but that feels too basic for Gritty.

Is there a similarly large toaster mascot?

Pop-Tarts are at their best after they come out of the toaster. The winners of the Pop-Tarts Bowl deserve the best, so they should bring out a comically large toaster for the mascot to make sure it’s hot and ready.

What happens if it rains?

No one wants to eat a soggy Pop-Tart, and Florida’s known for rain. Is there a backup mascot Pop-Tart waiting in the wings in case of a rain delay?

13 cereals we loved as kids and 13 we absolutely hated

Nowadays, we’re all about nutritious breakfasts: whole foods that are high in fiber, low in calories, and full of vitamins, minerals, healthy fats, and antioxidants. But back in the day, breakfast was just various kinds of cereals, and we generally only enjoyed the unhealthy ones. The following statements are overly opinionated and immature, and our evaluations are mostly based on bright colors and high sugar content—but hey, that’s what being a kid is all about. Here are 13 cereals we loved as kids and 13 we hated.

These holidays are also a chance to catch up on hobbies and interests that may have taken a backseat during the school year. Summer holidays are the perfect time to take a break from academics and focus on personal growth and development. It is a time to engage in physical activities like swimming, playing outdoor games or going for hikes.

Loved: Cap’n Crunch

Did eating Cap’n Crunch destroy the roof of our mouths? Yep. Did we still beg our parents to buy it for us? You betcha. And honestly, we didn’t need Crunch Berries or peanut butter or chocolate or any of the other newer varieties—just give us the OG Cap’n. (Ever wonder what Cap’n Crunch’s full name is? It’s Horatio Magellan Crunch.)

These activities not only keep students fit but also provide an opportunity to spend quality time with family and friends. Apart from physical activities, summer holidays also offer a chance to explore creative pursuits. Many students choose to enroll in art workshops, music classes or dance lessons to enhance their creative skills. This helps in nurturing their talents and broadening their horizons. Moreover, summer holidays are an ideal time to catch up on reading. Students can choose to read books that interest them and expand their knowledge. It is also a good opportunity to pick up new hobbies like gardening, cooking or painting. These activities not only help in personal development but also provide a sense of accomplishment. In addition to all the fun and relaxation, summer holidays should also include some time for academic enrichment. Students can utilize this time to revise the topics learned in the previous academic year or explore new subjects of interest. This ensures that they stay ahead in their studies and are well-prepared for the upcoming school year. Overall, summer holidays are a time of freedom, fun and personal growth. It is important for students to make the most of this time and engage in activities that contribute to their overall development. Whether it is exploring new places, learning new skills or pursuing hobbies, summer holidays offer a world of opportunities..
