Reader Dexter S. was watching TV when a commercial for the ‘Fruit Loops’ cereal flashed up on his screen.

Nothing unusual in that.

Except featured within the commercial was a rather familiar face…

Though fleeting, the gaudy spot for this overly-sugared cereal clearly shows Tux, the official Linux mascot, for a split second or so.

An intentional inclusion? Who knows. I’ve made a few enquiries but — call it a hunch crunch — I doubt I’ll hear anything back.

Wishing to confirm his sighting, Dexter hopped on to YouTube to try and find the commercial itself, and to see whether anyone else had noticed it. He was in luck, finding a video of the commercial — which we’ve helpfully embedded below…

Notice anyone familiar?

Did you spot the iconic Linux penguin?

Thanks Dexter S
