Fruit Brute, by General Mills. There was another relatively unknown one called Yummy Mummy. Up until now, the only ones I had heard of were Count Chocula, Boo Berry and Franken Berry.

Ecto Cooler /thread
This stuff was truely awesome... colored green, tasted orange. How can you get any better? Plus this was the time when slimer was king and the Ghostbuster rocked hard. I would love to have this childhood treat back
From Wiki
Ecto Cooler was product tie-in with the movie Ghostbusters. Hi-C struck a deal in 1984 to promote the movie by developing a drink. Expected to last only as long as the movie, the drink was successful beyond expectations and continued to be produced for the better part of two decades. The Ecto Cooler box featured the Ghostbusters character Slimer, as did the commercials. Slimer left the box sometime around 1997, but Minute Maid did not discontinue the product until 2001, at which point it was renamed Shoutin' Orange Tangergreen. Slimer was replaced on the packaging by a similar-looking blob of lips. Excepting the flavor, the only other unchanged aspect of the product is that it is still being noted as ecto cool on many store receipts.
In 2006, Shoutin' Orange Tangergreen was renamed Crazy Citrus Cooler.
Ecto Cooler is also the nickname of an alcoholic drink that is made by mixing a lemon-lime powder mix with vodka, sugar, water, and ice. [1]
Because of popular demand, mega retailers such as Walmart and Target have agreed to begin restocking this product as of March 2007.[citation needed]
I really want proof of that last claim... I f'n loved ecto cooler and if it comes back I may die.

Ah, ok, the post above yours was about a monster-themed cereal with a werewolf on the box if I remember right, thought you were commenting on that.

Does anyone remember those soft-serve ice cream cones that were dipped in some kind of chocolate that got crunchy really quickly? I haven't had one of those in years.

They still have this, it's marketed as 'Magic Shell' now.
