Anybody remember, “come home when the street lights come on.”?
They must be talking about "Colon-Blow" cereal, brought to us by the folks at SNL.

I happened to be cukoo for cocoapuffs
I can remember when Kellogg’s “Corn Pops” cereal used to be called “Sugar Pops”; and when “Super Golden Crisp” used to be called “Super Sugar Crisp”
Wow, was I living too high on the hog for this..resident.
“In 2045, breakfast will be a rutabaga dipped in warm marrow. Maybe they’ll call them Root Loops. But it just won’t be the same.”
Organic Free-Range marrow, I hope.
Hilarious article, thanks for posting.
See Ag Secy. Tom Vilsack’s remarks to the Restaurant Association the other day.
“America’s tastes WILL have to be changed, and you WILL be our partners in helping to achieve this”.
What say you, Hermain Cain, former President of the aforementioned organization?
Is there a cereal without sugar, beside Grape Nuts? I did find Post Shredded Wheat without sugar. Instead it had butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) - a suspected carcinogen - added for preservation’s sake.
Who’s going to preserve our lives? BHT is in many cereals and other supposedly for-human-consmption foods. I bet the executives at the food companies don’t feed that stuff to their kids or themaelves.

Ping list for the discussion of the politics and social (and sometimes nostalgic) aspects that directly effects Generation Reagan / Generation-X (Those born from 1965-1981) including all the spending previous generations are doing that Gen-X and Y will end up paying for.
Freep mail me to be added or dropped. See my home page for details and previous articles.
I used to be a fanatic for Lucky Charms. Then I downgraded to Raisin Bran when I joined the military. Now that I will retire I absolutely love Cheerios with milk; no sugar!
Lileks ping! Dude’s a genius.
“...Captain Crunch, which had the same effect on the roof of your mouth as a spoonful of screws...”
Exactly.
Looks like James is back at the (Red)Star!
While I personally remember Sugar Jets, Puffa Puffa Rice, Kellog’s OKs and other brands my favorite is still Calvin & Hobbes’ CHOCOLATE FROSTED SUGAR BOMBS!
As kids, my mom made chocolate gravy for us at breakfast. then we were unleashed on the school system! WOW!
I love Grape-Nuts. If I drench them with enough brown sugar. Where is it written down you can’t sugar frost the stuff yourself?
No matter which cereal you choose, the results will be identical anyway.
Nobody makes it out of life alive.
Or in other words, life has 100% PK.
So pass me the Cap’n Crunch (let it soak a bit first), put on Sky King, and let me enjoy life.
