This project was completed with the help of the Schwartz/Paddock Undergraduate Fellowship in the Visual and Performing Arts during the Tufts University Summer Scholars program. My excellent mentor was Charles Goss.
 

Dild-O’s is a cereal targeting adults that has all of the fun parts of kids’ cereals. It has a colorful box, a prize, and marshmallows, while focusing its marketing on the pleasure of eating rather than manipulating people’s body image (think Special K's "Pinch Test"). All of this, and it addresses the sex-shaming views that cereal was founded on.
