Had Cheerios this am, myself! IMO, corn flakes are to crumble for chicken or pork chops...

Is there a large market for counterfeit cornflakes?

That's okay, I'll just pay illegal immigrant workers' kids money to paint upside down K's on them.
Please buy my CORN FAKES.

Hmmmm.....just goes to show you, never trust a breakfast food that doesn't involve bacon in some way.
You just never know what you're really getting.

The bad news for Kellogg’s is that the Kroger Brand Corn Flakes are just as good as theirs and cost half as much.
Laser etch that!

Yup... and chinese knock off Spam at that, delicately smoked in a variety of pier timbers, flavored with the finest local melamine laced soy filler and antifreeze. No preservatives! Proudly distributed in the U.S.A.

Bacon, nature’s most perfect food.I'm partial to bananas. They grow in the wrapper and ready to drop in the lunch bag. The wrapper is biodegradable.

Apparently they are assuming that the copycats can't do the same thing? They assume consumers care they are eating their corn flakes or generic, plus that consumers love Kellog branded corn flakes so much they would tolerate an increase in price over generic brands just to pass on the cost of the laser.
One thing is for sure, Kellog certainly thinks their customers can't taste the difference, which is a pretty damning admission.
