I remember having C-3PO's back in the day, but does anyone remember what they tasted like?

They were, to be quite honest, the tastiest cereal I think I've ever had in my life. Kind of a vanilla-y, sweet flavour to it... very hard to explain.

Not only was the cereal good, but I used to love the cardboard cut-out masks they'd print on the back of the box (my personal favourite being the stormtrooper mask).

I'd go bananas if the put 3PO's back on the market.

I also have a set of 3PO's cereal boxes with the masks on the back. I especially liked the Luke mask.

I didn't care for the taste of the cereal- and I'll eat any kind of cereal, so that tells you something. After eating it once or twice, I actually took all of the cereal out of the remaining boxes, put it in a plastic bag and gave it to my nephews.

The flavor is hard to explain, I don't recall it tasting like vanilla. Maybe it was more of a honey & corn kind of flavor? (but not like Corn Pops) In any case, I didn't like it.
