Force breakfast cereal finished in 2013 - another link to the S&A era lost.
I cannot say it compared well with cornflakes manufactured by, say Kellogg's, which had a much more appetising colour and much more sugar.
Force had "descended" to being a top shelf food in Waitrose (an upper price UK chain store).
Hope to publish a few notes on Force and it's advertising in the S&A period.

Was always surprised the AR wrote about giving chocolate to William as he could have been poisoned by the theobromine therein. Perhaps AR did not really like dogs, I was thought he wrote less sympathetically about William than he did about Sinbad.
AR & Evgenia were cat lovers I don't think Sinbad was ever offered chocolate - which is also bad for cats although less so than for dogs.
Generally cats will not eat chocolate except when encouraged to do so.
