Description
Jackie O's cereal consists of pink cereal Os. The box has a pink-and-white color scheme and a graphic on the front promises "Free stretch-pants inside". The back of the box goes into more detail about the stretch pants.
Behind the Laughter
- The cereal's name is a reference to former First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis (1929-1994), wife of President John F. Kennedy. When she re-married (to shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis) five years after Kennedy's assassination, she was nicknamed "Jackie O" in popular culture.
- Both during and after Kennedy's presidency, Mrs. Kennedy was known for her independent and widely respected fashion sense (particularly for the pink suit she was wearing the day JFK was assassinated), alluded to by the cereal box's color scheme and promise of stretch pants.
