Now as gunshots echo across the windswept, snow-covered reaches of the Wild Northwest, Paker Puff Wheat, and Paker Puff Rise, the breakfast cereal shot from gun. Yes! Present the challenge of the Yukon. It Yukon King, swiftest and strongest lead dog of the North West, placing the trail for Sergeant Preston of the North West Mounted Police,

Back to the days of the Gold Rush, with Quaker Puff Wheat and Quaker Puff Rice, bringing you the adventures of Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog Yukon King as they meet the challenge of the Yukon.

Mmm, just take a luscious mouthful, taste the nut-like flavor, the special Christmas that's yours only in Quaker Puffed Rice and Quaker Puffed Wheat. Because they're shot from guns!
