The Buckets by Greg Cravens for May 31, 2020

Would you buy a box of cereal with only black and white printing the says Artificially Fruit Flavored. I didn’t think so. Put a colorful Toucan on the label and you have a delicious addition to your breakfast.

Every color in Froot Loops is the same flavor.

Yet neither of them stops to wonder about the actual content of fruit in the cereal, or the spelling of froot

I’m so old, I remember when the “different” flavors had different shapes.

Whenever I see a Toucan I think of Guinness. There’s a great advertising story about that relationship.

Toucans like fresh fruit, that’s the only connection.

Stop picking on your brother Toby

Now ask Mom about tigers.

let’s not get started about the Nesquick one with the bunny cereals that LOOK LIKE BUNNY “DROPS” hehe

What if Toby actually believes that Toucans actually have something to do with the cereal?

fortunately for the both of them and those who eat the cereal the Toucans are just the spokesbird for the cereal; they have nothing to do with the making of adding to the tasye of the cereal….thank goodness.

Toucan play at this game.

Kellogg’s has gone off the deep end in regards to the new Toucan Sam design in recent TV commercials. He doesn’t sound like he used to, and has a static beak with a regular mouth on it.

All froot loops taste the same, regardless of color. And there’s a reason why they call it "froot’ instead of ‘fruit.’

My sister is 5 years younger than me (and the one after her is 7 years younger than her).

Either of them would declare they wanted some cereal and mom would buy it for them. They would like it and mom would buy lots of extra on sale with coupons. Then they would decide they hated the cereal. Guess who had to eat it until it was gone – yep, me and dad.
