Breakfast of the Gods

I'd like to see Quisp and Quake in there, too.

Who here remembers the battles between Quisp and Quake, and the postcard vote that decided it?

(Boy, I am really dating myself now...)

Cookie Quisp?

In other words, no clue.

Quisp and Quake were breakfast cereals.

Link.
Link.

I was 8 when the contest started, and, according to the Wikipedia article, I must have been 8 or 9 when it ended. The way it worked was, you sent in a postcard voting for either Quisp or Quake. I'm fairly sure I voted for Quisp, budding SF fan that I was.

Had they done it 15 years later, it would have been a 900 number, like they did with deciding if Robin should die. Ten years after that, it would have been e-mail, and if they did it today, it'd be text messaging. But I remember the postcards.
