I tried cocoa puffs about 6 weeks ago and they seemed to taste pretty good still.

Being an animator and wanting to maybe get one day into animation, I just realized how much of an impact this could have on me. CartoonNetwork, Disney and WB toons rely very heavily on snack and cereal food moneys. You make some valid points and I’m curious as to how your cerealise me series will turn out- part of me is convinced its unhealthy, but cereal, even Cookie Crisp and Cap’n Crunch are probably 100 times better for you than eating at McDonalds or eating some of the other processed junk that line our supermarket shelves.

I don’t think any changes have been made yet… although I’m sure that General Mills has been preparing for this for awhile ever since Kelloggs sold out Snap, Crackle, and Pop.

I miss Pixie Stix.

You make some very valid points here. When I was growing up (a long time ago), my sisters and I ate all kinds of sugary cereals for breakfast. When we could scrape enough of our allowances, we would walk to the little store not far from home and buy candy. Pixie Stix were a favorite. We drank Kool-Aid and ate Popsicles. My sisters and I were skinny little kids because we played outdoors when we got home from school. We had recess outdoors a couple of times a day. We walked to school because we only had 1 car and Dad needed it to go to work. Nowadays, kids get hardly any physical activity at home or at school. My sons never heard of “recess” at their school.
