Yeah I dunno. They've always been "Frosties" here. Maybe to differentiate them from "Corn Flakes", though surely people wouldn't get that confused? Mind you, we used to have "Sugar Smacks", then they became the much more risque "Smacks", and finally disappeared altogether. Damn it! I loved that cereal! Everything's chocolate nowadays: chocolate is fine, but I don't want it with my breakfast, curse you!
