Post Fruity Pebbles 11 oz: version 1
Saved 2026-09-13 17:38 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added **Post Fruity Pebbles 11 oz** (UPC 043000129722), from the wanted list (old title "post fruity pebbles"). **Identity.** Open Food Facts, USDA, Open Library and Wikidata had nothing (MusicBrainz answered 503). UPC Database (upcdatabase.org, record added 2012-06-23) describes the barcode as "KRAFT FOODS, INC. 11 oz Post Fruity Pebbles". The archived 2007 Barcodepedia page gives the same name and size; it is used for identity only. Brand history comes from Wikipedia (Pebbles; Post Consumer Brands; Mondelez International). **Relations.** `brand_owner_at_sale` (sourced, ended) and `gs1_prefix_owner` (derived) both point to company/mondelez-international, because Kraft Foods Inc. was renamed Mondelez in 2012. Nothing names who holds prefix 0043000 today. **Successor and market.** USDA FDC 2469499 lists an 11 oz Fruity Pebbles box from Post Consumer Brands, LLC under GTIN 00884912129710. The item digits (12972) and size match. That link is only inferred, so `status: discontinued` / `superseded_by` carry a note saying so. The US Markets row is `derived` from the successor record. **Ingredients.** I found no label for the Kraft-era pack. The ingredient rows are the successor's USDA ingredient statement. They sit in the observation `succ-2023`, marked `unconfirmed` and explicitly not this barcode's label. Nutrition is left empty and recorded as a research gap. The archived Dec 2008 Post Cereals page shows its panel only as images and lists 13/17/34 oz sizes, not 11 oz. **Stubs.** brand/post, company/post-consumer-brands (gs1_prefixes 0884912, from USDA owner records), family/fruity-pebbles (two 11 oz variants), and ingredients turmeric-oleoresin, indigo-carmine (E132, per Wikipedia) and zinc-oxide. All other ingredients mapped to existing entities. **Unresolved.** Pack format, sale dates, a label or photo of this pack, and the current prefix licensee.. This is the current version.

## About <!--about-->
Post Fruity Pebbles 11 oz is an 11-ounce pack of Fruity Pebbles, the fruit-flavoured sweetened crisp rice cereal that Post introduced nationally in 1971 with characters from The Flintstones.[^wiki-pebbles] UPC Database lists barcode 043000129722 as the 11 oz Post Fruity Pebbles of Kraft Foods, Inc.,[^upcdb] and the 2007 Barcodepedia entry recorded the same name and size.[^barcodepedia2007] Post cereals belonged to Kraft Foods Inc. until the cereal unit was sold to Ralcorp.[^wiki-post] The 11 oz box that Post Consumer Brands sells today carries a different barcode, 884912129710,[^usda-succ] and Post still lists an 11 oz size.[^pebbles-site] The ingredient rows on this page come from that successor label, not from a Kraft-era pack.
Kraft Foods Inc. was renamed Mondelez International in 2012,[^wiki-mdlz] the year Post Holdings was spun off from Ralcorp.[^wiki-post] In December 2008 Post's own site listed Fruity Pebbles only in 13 oz, 17 oz and 34 oz sizes.[^postcereals-2008]
