Tony the Tiger beat a kangaroo for the cereal box

HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART

Tony the Tiger had to actively crush his competition to survive. When the sugary cereal launched, the company created four distinct mascots, including Katy the Kangaroo and an elephant named Elmo, letting consumers vote on the packaging. The tiger easily destroyed the marsupial in the polls, permanently securing his spot on the cardboard box.
