After I hit the submit button, it occured to me that the reference to Tony the Tiger and "That's GRRREAT!" may not be familiar to some people who live outside of the USA and perhaps some Americans who aren't in to sugary breakfast cereal or tv commercials.

Here's some information from Google:

"Sugar
Frosted Flakes

In the Sixties and Seventies, cereals were proud of their sugary content, and many cereals featured the word sugar prominently in the product name.

That practice went out with the health conscious Eighties, the word sugar was replaced by words like 'golden' or just dropped entirely. Not that the sugar CONTENT dropped any, just the wording.

Today, Sugar Frosted Flakes is known simply as Frosted Flakes and Tony the Tiger is suing the Exxon Tiger for copyright infringement.

Tony the Tiger has been a cereal pitchman since 1952, the Exxon tiger has been around since '64. They peacefully co-existed for decades, but it's a problem now because Exxon recently brought the tiger back - and they're selling food in station convenient stores."

Here's another website on television commercials that I found via Google:

"Frosted Flakes (1984, video)
"Show 'em you're a tiger." I'm not sure if this was a source of inspiration to any of today's female athletes, but that was the goal of this spot. Kellogg's stopped focusing its Frosted Flakes marketing effort on kids in the late '80s, with the 'taste adults have grown to love' campaign. They bolstered that in 1999 with a series of clever spots featuring neurotic adults obsessed with Tony the Tiger."
