I absolutely love Candy Corn! I get super excited when I see it appear on the grocery store shelf in mid-Septmber. Then by mid-October I'm super tired of it because I have gorged on it for a month. You'd think I could learn to pace myself, but.....
Sugar Bear originally appeared in the 1940s as the mascot of Golden Crisp (then called Sugar Crisp),[1] a cereal produced by General Foods Corporation under the Post brand. The original bear was designed by Robert "Bob" Irwin, a graphic designer for Post Cereal[citation needed] and voiced, in animated commercials, for 40 years by Gerry Matthews in emulation of a Dean Martin or Bing Crosby persona[1] – a shallow-eyed, easy going character who crooned his cereal's praises to the tune of "Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho".
