In Battle Creek, MI, the cereal capitol of the world, a vicious killer is stlll on the loose following several murders here during the past three weeks. The victims include Tony The Tiger, Captain Crunch, the Lucky Charm’s Leprechaun and all three of the Snap, Crackle and Pop guys. The police suspect a cereal killer.
I agree to a point— you have to be careful how cheap you go, because you do ‘get what you pay for’. On the other hand, you can also overpay on brand names because you’re ‘paying for the label’. I’ve found that many of those store brand cereals taste no different than the brand-name ones, the pricey ones just have a better advertising budget.
cereals was about 25 cents a box until the oil embargo business in the early 70s, and the cereal people realized folks were eating cereal for dinner. they upped the price 4 to 8 times. the cereal in a box still costs them pennies.

There are some supermarket generic cereals where it is probably better to eat the box because it tastes nicer that the product inside.

Skip the cereal, just eat oatmeal, it’s healthier.
