Calling 90s cereal boxes "design gold" feels like a stretch. Those loud colors and weird fonts were mostly just marketing to kids, not some deep art. Like, Count Chocula is fun to remember, but is a cartoon vampire really better design than what's in a good app today? It seems like pure nostalgia talking.

Never realized they were containers, that explanation totally changed how I see it.
