Honey Nut Cheerios

For identifying fonts, the logo of Cheerios brand cereal, specifically Honey Nut flavor, seems to be most similar to ITC Garamond Condensed after uploading the logo to whattthefont.

This typeface family has several different weights to it and was first released in 1975 in Book and Ultra, only. Cheerios have a double lowercase ‘e’ that the Garamond condenses the eyes of, while the teardrop terminal and bilateral serifs on the bottom of the lowercase ‘r’ is are very short as well, along with the serifs of the lowercase ‘i’.

The lowercase ‘t’ of ‘Nut,’ and the lowercase ‘h’ and ‘i’ of ‘Cheerios’ have a lower angled serifs too. The ‘n’ and ‘u’ in “Honey Nut” have more condensed apertures much like the lowercase ‘e’s mentioned. There are also semi serifs on capital letters such as the ‘H’ in “Honey” and ‘N’ in “Nut.”
