Low created the flavor coating for Cap'n Crunch, describing it as giving the cereal a quality she called "want-more-ishness".

[26] It wasn’t until the mid-1990s that the Cap’n finally had teeth added to his grin and branched out to become a voyager at sea, on land, and, as seen in the commercial above, even outer space. His most recent makeover in 2005 featured a slightly slimmer Cap’n in commercials and on cereal boxes, joined by his pirate nemesis from the 1960s Jean LaFoot. Chocolatey Crunch: Introduced in 2011 and consisting of chocolate-flavored corn squares, Chocolately Crunch was discontinued in July 2016 due to poor sales.
