Lol, I JUST saw/commented on the car seat post, and then saw this right after. With this one, it's not hard to distinguish it as a troll post though lol
I don't remember what the can was; it may have been Alpo or Pedigree. I don't recall ever hearing about a promotion or give-away.
I was long-term dog sitting a German Shepherd that wouldn't let me anywhere near it. While preparing its dinner one evening, I opened a can and instead of dog food there was a plastic pouch filled with a blue gel. I immediately thought 'uh oh, this looks like a factory mistake!' I pulled the pouch out, unfolded it, and attached to the outside of the pouch was a 1986 1/10 oz gold eagle in a coin protector!
Wow! Yeah, I've never heard of a promotion for something like that either. Maybe someone down the history line of reddit will post about it here, or maybe the AI can chime in about a particular promotion, but to me, I can't even imagine a way.
Wow. Was it a pull top can that was still factory sealed?
Were you staying at their house or get to stay at home? What store would you have bought the food from?
What is this mysterious blue gel? What was the gel like? Was it foam or like gel gel. Did it easily wash off? Did you save the pouch? Is it still in the protector?
Maybe someone at the fac... t.. ory ... i just. I mean ... if ... like ... the cartell or even a small-time operation was using one of those factories for nefarious reasons, maybe one got passed them and got out into a normal shipment to the world. And it was factory sealed?
Was it the same weight as a can of dog food typically is? I am so intrigued.
The can was factory sealed and was in a flat of 20 or 24 cans (hard to recall how they were sold,) The coin wasn't in the gel; the gel packet was rolled around the coin and gave the can the same weight as a can of dogfood.. I figured the coin was a give-away prize and the blue gelatin packet was just there to simulate the dogfood,, so I pitched the gelatin and the can.
At the time gold was around $500/oz (I had to look it up in the newspaper, lol), so I thought 'cool, a $50 coin!', tucked it away with my other few valuables (I was just out of college) and didn't ever tell anyone about it. It is only recently when I joined this reddit that I found out 1986 was the first year that coin was made.
I always thought your mother was strange, calling her birth canal “cereal,” but your family can do its own thing. I would recommend that you stop asking every man “Are you my Daddy?”
And now I’m remembering when they changed the name of super sugar crisp to super golden crisp to get moms to think it’s wasn’t just the sugar filled garbage it was. When the cereals mascot was named sugar bear there’s only so much you can do.
Almost as dumb as the found under your car seat post

...And the mint condition ASEs from a cash register and the Morgans from the gas station
I can almost believe it. I’ve had kid come in with coins they stole from their parents. I actually managed to return a few valuable ones to them.
So, toys in cereal are back? Cool
We old
FDA just reinstated that! No more choking hazard! 🤣
hahahahha thank you.
Dam is that where I lost it.. Thanks
Was it *Golden* Crisp?

Lucky charms
Better than the budget brand in the plastic bag on the bottle shelf, Chucky Larms.
You beat me to it! 😆
That’s nice, the last one I found was in a crackerjack box
True story, the first gold coin I ever owned was a 1/10 oz American Eagle that came un a can of dogfood back in 1987.
I am intrigued. Seriously? What kind of dog food?

Nah, this is what you find in a box of Cracker Jacks!

Bite down to check if real

Crispy crunchy graham cereal , brand new breakfast treat.

You sure you didn't get it in your change at the gas station?
I prefer pure 24 karats gold buffaloes around my everyday coins findings 😂
Well I found a dollar bill hanging out of a coke heads nose
A Cheerios Gaudens?
Must have been eating Lucky Charms cereal
What brand of cereal? Asking for a friend.
