early history and influences
The lede and info box list the introduction date as 1987 but the text (and memory) recall it as 1963. The current owner is Quaker Oats which is indicated to have done the original marketing. Was there an earlier company and was a different company founded in 1987 to use the old recipe?
The Captain Crunch character was created by Jay Ward Productions, the creators of Rocky & Bullwinkle.
A notable influences is a toy whistle in packages allowed making free telephone calls as John Draper did using the nickname Captain Crunch after the whistle. Colonial Computer 03:05, 15 July 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 22yearswothanks (talk • contribs)
