Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for June 26, 2021

Ew.

Exactly why I don’t eat Cheerios- or any other crunchy cereal like Captain Crunch. To each his own, but I think it was a real marketing ploy to convince people that soggy cereal was bad. Post used to make the most DELICIOUS oat flake cereal I ever tasted, but it got discontinued, maybe because it dissolved on contact with the milk.

Cheerios are even worse now that it is gluten free.

Five minutes in milk and that’s what you get from regular ones….

Oh gross!

My aunt used to work at General Mills and the whole family had tons of Cheerios. I hated them, they smell like feet. But boy, does it smell good down by the factory

This is why I prefer Joe’s O’s. They stay crisper longer. And actually taste better

Don’t mind how many teeth you lose, you still can gobble Cheeriooze

Reminds me of old Mad Magazine ads

O…OOZE…O’s!

I once considered starting a business that created cereals where you added juice instead of milk. I doubt I’ll ever do anything about it though.

Granola forever!!

All I ever got was Soggios!

Wouldn’t that really just be oatmeal?

Cheerios, chopped walnuts and a sliced banana with fat-free milk. Every morning.

Ick! No thanks, I’ll pass.

As a kid, I loved to let my Frosted Flakes sit in the milk for a while so that it got soggy…. on purpose. Hated crunchy cereal. Especially Cap’n Crunch. Tore the inside of my mouth up. LOL

None of you has mentioned the main reason for Cheerios: https://live.staticflickr.com/8440/7916889810_4edcb935b6_n.jpg
