You are correct. My oldest daughter corrected me tonight. Also, the
name is Crunch'N'Munch, not Munch-A-Bunch. So I was mistaken twice.

Furthermore, of the five people at the dinner table tonight (not
including myself), one of them has never heard of Crunch'N'Munch, but
she detests Cracker Jacks. The other four people know both products,
and they prefer Crunch'N'Munch because its toffee coating is better, and
the Cracker Jack toys are of no value to them.

I hesitate to draw a musical parallel, but apparently 'tradition' loses
in this case.
