Talk:Frosted Flakes

Article Title
Why is this article named 'Frosted Flakes' when its only called that in one country when the rest of the world call them 'Frosties'? Shouldn't the title be the most common named used? "Frosties (or Frosted Flakes in America) etc."


 * Quick Google finds

Frosted Flakes : USA Frosties (Germany) Frosties (UK) Frosties (France) Frosties (Italy) Frosties (Spain) Frosties (Portugal) Zucaritas (Argentina and Mexico) Sucrilhos (Brazil) i like chicken So it's not a USA vs Rest of the world but USA vs Europe vs Some others ... anyway Kellogs is an American company so the USA title should be first (but not only) Jaster 16:36, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

vvvvv Can we get rid of the Frosties Kid comments now he has his own page ...

Frosted Flakes v Frosties
I think the common rule in wikipedia is that the Country of Origin rule always applies. (Frosties is a rare example because of US trade mark laws, but most other products have a standardised international name (unless the word is offensive in that language)). English articles are written in British English and American articles are written in American English. Kelloggs is an American company and must be treated as such, Frosted Sugar Flakes were first launched there. Mike33 01:51, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Cocoa Frosted Flakes
I remember them being available for a limited time in America from the early 1990s. Is this true? --Imax80 19:03, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

My revert
Complete accident - I was using Lupin's vandalism tool, which must have rolled-back a rollback. There is still vandalism present on the page. --Birdman1 talk/contribs 22:13, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

The Frosties Kid
Regular editors may be suprised to see the paragraph back here. In the recent Afd [Frosties Kid] 19 people contributed (6keep 5merge 7delete 1abstain). The entry on Frosted Flakes looks nothing like any of the article that went through Afd. I doubt that any vandalism incured on the site will be as a result of this entry. Frosted Flakes is known to 1/4 the world as Frosties and its removal on those grounds would be very bad faith. Mike33 06:40, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Trivia
The last piece of trivia does not seem to have a home ... can anyone assist ? lɘɘяɘM яɘɫƨɐƮ 13:45, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Voice Actors for Tony the Tiger
I found a serious error in the section where it talks about the people who voiced Tony the Tiger. It said in there that Dallas McKennon originally did his voice. That is entirely false. McKennon never did his voice; it was always Thurl Ravenscroft since Day 1. The Nostalgia Critic is wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Luckybolt (talk • contribs) 04:51, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Dubious Source
The source for the claim that "'Frosted Flakes' is a too generic a term to be trademarked' is said to be an article on Today, but actually it's just them quoting a seemingly random food blogger's instagram. Might be worth replacing that with a big ol' [CITATION NEEDED] sticker until a real source is found 90.243.14.81 (talk) 00:53, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
