I forgot they whitewashed the guy from the Apple Jacks commercials a couple years ago
but the whole joke was that he was Jamaican because he is Cinna-monwhere's the joke with just a cinnamon stick?
>>152147218Jesus, the new one straight up looks like a dollar-store level off brand design.
>>152147218>>152147247Did Jamaicans complain Apu-style or what?
>>152147354That’s the thing, no one was complaining
>>152147218coming here to say that Cinna'Mon was literally VOICED by a Jamaican, like my fuckin god
>>152147354I seriously doubt Jamaicans complained. I could be wrong but they don't seem the type
Focus groups thought the apple was too scary, so they revamped the both of them to be less "scary".
>>152147373>>152147380>>152147390Yeah seems like a case of focus groups and execs ASSUMING people were offended when nobody really was.
>>152147390they're too busy being violent and rapeycountry's a shithole only kept afloat by sex tourism
>>152147460Why are you like this, /pol/? Can you stop bringing in politics into literally everything?
>>152147460Too busy being high >>152147449Not really
>>152147247>where's the jokeHe's a sinna, mon. There's malice behind those eyes.
>>152147449They're not assuming people WERE offended, they assumed people WOULD BE offended. They were probably like, "This might cause trouble for us."
>>152147218I like when the cinnamon and the apple exist in conflict. Even as superheroes, they would insult each other. The new design makes it look like a baby cereal like how preschooler shows can't have conflict between characters.
>>152147218They also completely sandblasted Apple's character too. Guy used to look hyped up this new guy looks bland and nothing.
>>152147218>Cinna-Mon to Cinna-Gay>Bad Apple to Bitch Apple
>>152147218>>152147247>>152147354>>152147373We know EXACTLY who was complaining. White karens in HR.
>>152147218at least they changed both of them.
>>152147218Man, I remember really loving those commercials and seeing his rivalry with Apple develop into more of a friendship.I loved that era where mascots had lore.
>>152148766>that time cinna-mon and the apple became conjoinedthe fuck was with 2000s kids media and that trope
>>152147247There's no joke, anon. The cereal is cinnamon flavored so the mascot is a cinnamon stick. That's it.
>>152147218They might as well go back to those dumb live-action ads with the kids saying "we eat what we like".
>>>/mlp/
>leftA quirky antromorphic Jamaican cinnamon stick and a jerkass apple who get into shenanigans >rightA cinnamon stick and an appleI hate modern society.
>>152147218The apple also lost his methhead energy.
>>152148626The cracker barrel logo came back, does that make it logo Jesus?
>>152147218you had a cereal named after hillbilly moonshine and you had to make a racist characature to advertise it? jesus fuckin christ america no wonder the idiots took over why didn't you just walk around jerking off with your thumb up your ass while you were at it
>>152147218I have better things to do than get mad about cereal mascots but I will say it's a confusing move to take character designs that stand out and make them generic enough that they'd pass as clip art on google
>>152147218One of these commercials played when I got the news my first dog died. "Celebrate" is ruined for me
