Where Did Wheaties Originally Place The Photos Of The Athletes And When Did That Change

Wikimedia list article

Some Wheaties boxes with athletes or teams on the packaging, from the tardily 1990s.

In 1934, the breakfast cereal Wheaties began the practice of including pictures of athletes on its packaging to coincide with its slogan, "The Breakfast of Champions." In its original form, athletes were depicted on the sides or back of the cereal box, though in 1958 Wheaties began placing the pictures on the front of the box. The tradition has included hundreds of athletes from many different sports, and also team depictions.

This article lists the athletes or teams depicted on Wheaties boxes, along with the year(s) of depiction and sport played. This list is non all-inclusive, and athletes may take been shown together with teams and groups, or on the sides, back, or front end of the box. Virtually athletes appeared on the standard Wheaties box, while others appeared on the Honey Frosted Wheaties (HFW), Crispy Wheaties 'n' Raisins (CWR), Wheaties Energy Crunch (WEC), or Wheaties Fuel (WF) boxes.

Around 1990, Full general Mills did a promotion called "Moving-picture show Yourself on a Wheaties Box," in which, for a fee, they would brand a custom Wheaties box from one's own photograph that was sealed in articulate acrylic. Kristi Yamaguchi, amongst other athletes, was featured in ad this campaign.
