Retsy Series 1 · Card 0113 · 80-BRK
Same crunch. Different, confused mascot.
A giant plastic bag of off-brand frosted puffs from the bottom shelf, starring a cartoon animal nobody could quite identify.
The story · 1986
Bottom Shelf Mystery Bag came in a crinkly sack the size of a pillow, sealed with a twist tie that was always missing. The mascot was either a dog, a bear or a very confident muffin. Kids complained loudly in the store, then ate three bowls at home, because honestly it tasted almost exactly the same.
Kids held long debates about what the mascot actually was, and the leading theory was a beaver in a sweater.
