Can you tell the difference between classic psychedelic bands and breakfast cereals?

Try not to put Silver Apples in your mouth.

 
The late '60s and early '70s were a groovy time for both your taste buds and ears. Things were far more colorful and quirky in the psychedelic era — especially products aimed at the youth. 

Kids back then would pour a big bowl of sugary cereal and watch Saturday morning cartoons. Heck, you could listen to "Sugar, Sugar" on The Archies while shoveling spoonfuls of Sugar Smacks. 

The line between pop culture and breakfast was blurred so much that cereal boxes came with records on the back.

So, the question we're asking is: Can you tell the difference between a psychedelic band and a cereal brand from that era? Good luck!
  1. Was the Lovin' Spoonful a band or a cereal?
  2. Was Strawberry Alarm Clock a band or a cereal?
  3. Was Strawberry Kombos a band or a cereal?
  4. Was Sir Grapefellow a band or a cereal?
  5. Was Electric Prunes a band or a cereal?

The only one I got wrong was Mr. Wonderful's Surprize. I have never, EVER heard of such a cereal until now. And I was a child of the 60's, too!

Missed one. Luckily most of the bands were ones my dad listened to (just recently sold his Blues Magoos CDs).... and I LOVE "Incense and Peppermints"... good sense, innocence, cripplin' mankind.... that's gonna be stuck in my head all day... but that's just fine with me!

Wow, that made us hungry. But we're not sure if we're craving fuzz guitar or corn puffs.

16/17 Which begs the question, do I know my cereals or do I know my psychedelic bands?

15/17 Never heard of some of those bands/cereals so had to guess on some. Good quiz, though.

14/17; very tough quiz. Had to guess a lot. A lot of those names given were obscure lesser know bands and cereals.
