Unfortunately, because of this commercial, a thousand thirty-somethings now think there was a cereal called "Ice Cream Jones". There was not. There was only "Ice Cream Cones." I can't even call him a mascot because he was never on any of the boxes we bought, not even on the back!
Back when we didn't give a rat's nut about fibre, fat content, vitamins, or how much sugar was in stuff. And we didn't have fat kids then either! This cereal kicked butt!
grrr im getting jealous of those cereals back then that everyone had but me. but i bet they were GREAT by all the comments saying they can still taste it and they had it everyday and fell in love wit it
Never tried the cereal. Remember the commercial as if I saw it last week. Amazing how a jingle can dig up things you never knew you remembered in the first place.
The last time i have seen this commercial was when i was 9yrs old , never got to try it though i would always beg my mom, but she knew that kind of cereal was crack to kids
once at summer camp we were fed tainted meat for lunch and it tasted better than the box of ice cream crap cereal we had for breakfast no kidding this stuff was shitty to the 10th power
This stuff was SOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD!! I definitely preferred the Chocolate Chip over the vanilla. Then came the health nuts who moaned most of the cereal we grew up with was unhealthy.
ice cream Jones only came by my house after my dad took off for work. he would bring me cereal laced with "sleepy sugar". All day long mom would be humming the cereal jingle
I used to love this cereal! When I tell people about it now they tell me it must've been some generic cereal in a bag or that I dreamed it up. I was upset when they stopped making it.
damn i miss that fuckin cereal, they actually were selling them again back in 03 but under a different name for a limited time. thats one of the good things about working at a supermarket, you get to buy the new stuff before everybody.
I guess no one remembers this cereal because it was almost like they stopped making the cereal right after it came out. I remember my mother buying the vanilla flavor once. She went looking for it a few weeks later but, couldn't find. The cereal was pretty good. They tasted just like miniature vanilla ice cream cones. The one time my moms bought it, I fixed me a big bowl then turned on the tv to watch the Smurfs.
I KNEW I wasnt crazy!!!! I loved this cereal and no one else seemed to remember it!!! The chocolate chip was my fave:) I seem to remember a blue cereal boz with Ice Cream Jones guy on it
doubt this was better then the ninja turtles cereal, but i would definately like to try this, with it's 10010104891904 grams of sugar per serving :D looks tasty indeed.
Considering how retarded the commercial was, Ice Cream Cones were good. Now for Ice Cream Jones, I think his handle in the commercial was censored and changed for the kids. It was really Crystal Meth Jones (Ice); with a heavy emphasis on the "Jones" part. Only a jonesing tweaker would roll around in a getup like that trying to hit up little kids for cash
they need to re-release this stuff. i remember it back in the day... was good for its time... im sure they could make it even yummyier for now.... err i want my ice cream jones!!!
Never in my wildest did I think that youtube had this commercial. A straight up slice of 80's innovation combing cereal w/ ice cream n' kids eat up the advertising!!! Literally...
Holy SHHHTT. Yeah i forgot that too and you know what i use to slang i mean straight eat that faithfully. You da man for finding this one. MEga PRops. Hey i tell you what i make t-shirts representing this ceral and give y'all some free!! Bet i'm on it.
Thank you so much for adding this. I laughed myself silly then and now. DO you have the other two? the first one where the kid is waiting in front of his house at the crack of dawn and the third where Jones rides onto a hotel and manages to fall of the roof?
No problem, you're welcome. Kinda weird that it looks like I had one of the last surviving copies of this commecial floating around. Unfortunately, I don't have any other Ice Cream Jones commercials at the moment.
@inbhm I don't know if you know by now but, 2RadicalDudez has the one with the kids waiting on the sidewalk and babiesinthe80s has one with Ice Cream Jones stuck in traffic.
Thank you for uploading this video. That song has been in my head for like 20 years and I still sing it. I finally see the commercial again after so long.
This could be the catchiest jingle ever. Heard it probably no more than a handful of times in 1987 and not since--but it's played in my mental jukebox a few times a year ever since. No way that stuff was "part of a nutritious breakfast" ha ha! It was way too good for that!
I was about nine when these came out. It seems like my whole 4th grade class saw the same commercial the same day, because one day we were all singing it in class.
When you're a kid you can memorize a jingle after hearing it once or twice, and it can stay with you your whole life.
Man, I miss Ice Cream Jones cereal too. I can still remember the taste 20 years later. I remember it came in Chocolate Chip flavour in a brown box and a Vanilla flavour in a blue box
