Cocoa Pebbles
Chocolatey breakfast bits
Cocoa Pebbles is a chocolate-flavored breakfast cereal made of small, crispy rice pieces.
Introduced by Post in 1971 alongside its companion Fruity Pebbles, both cereals are marketed using characters from the animated television series *The Flintstones*.
The name plays on the Stone Age theme—pebbles as prehistoric building material.
I used to eat Cocoa Pebbles straight from the box.
