it is fun but at the same way pointless.

Its simple!
Design agencies like Landor need gullible companies to make money off, and as most big companies use the peter principle to promote their brand managers the synergies are obvious..

The original concept was the “kings new clothes”

Nowadays share holders hear the CEO talk of “Innovation” they expect a delivery, they get it! wrapped carefully in well worded BS… and every body goes “great” the stock rises a little (for maybe a day) and everybody agrees rather than risk appearing foolish

All this concern about waste of energy, what it they converted their plants to solar power. Would it still be a useless addition? I think it’s interesting, especially to differentiate between the “off” brands, but I’m not particularly sold on the idea…yet.

I think it would be time consuming, but at the end everyone would want to have a box, wich means their plans of selling more products will actually work. Although it would be easier if they did it just to some of the flakes not the entire box.

From a Graphic Designer’s point of view, it seems unnessesary. From an everyday guy’s point of view, kinda fun to see. Idk.

This would be great if you bought then in a shop with no packaging, you just scoop the product into your own box, pay per weight and take it home.

It’s a clever marketing ploy, it got lots of attention in the press. I don’t believe they will actually do it.

Don’t mess about with food! Leave the graphics to the packaging.

Looks like a cool idea to me. I don’t see why it’s a waste of money when it’s putting their name into your mouth… surely it’s not massively different to M&Ms, wine gums (before they got tight and stopped writing the words on them), or even those wee crackers you see with the names embossed on the back.

I agree with the point above that it sets them apart from other cereals on the shelf.

I’m equally aware it could be a hoax too.

Speaking of M&Ms. You guys do know that you can get custom ones with your logo on them right?

What would be really cool is if the logos turned red when you poured milk on them and got cold.

Just letter K on it would have been fine, but it’s still not necessary
