Shreddies had been a favorite cereal in Canada for decades, but it was virtually forgotten. This cereal didn't need innovation. Canadians love Shreddies “just the way they are” . The brand needed a face-lift and a radical marketing approach to break through the cluttered cereal category. We created a fake line extension: “Diamond Shreddies" . And executed the integrated campaign "launch" with a straight face. "Comparisons" is one of the virals created for the website in which our moderator talks to real participants in focus groups about the difference between ‘square' and ‘diamond' Shreddies.
