Robert,

Thank you for contacting us regarding our Kellogg's® Froot Loops®
advertisements.

I appreciate your interest in our products. The penguin used in our
commercial is not the mascot of another company. We do recognize that
the appearance of the penguin is very similar to "Tux" the penguin but
the resemblance is purely coincidental. I hope that this information
has been helpful to you.

We appreciate your interest in our company and products.


Sincerely,


Andrew De La Luz
