Last time I had cereal for dinner was when I was in college. I'm often wonder if the food at WV Tech was made from the chemical drums of Monsanto.

When I first heard this on the news, I commented to my wife: “It makes sense. cereal is a fairly low dollars per calory item to buy. That’s a good way to preserve cash”.

The lefties pushing a boycott clearly don’t understand the real world.

I have cereal for dinner sometimes with a banana. Probably cheaper than most meals. People need to get a live and look at the root cause of inflation. Look in the White House first.

Cereal is too expensive. The prices of those boxes of air are extreme.

I hope this boycott has some effect. We won’t participate ‘cause we just buy Brand X generics.

a boycott because he suggested breakfast for dinner?
That’s a bit much. sometimes i eat oatmeal as my last meal of the day. Nothing wrong with it.

It seems less like a gaff by Kellogg’s and more like our modern oversensitive society thinking they’re entitled eat whatever they want for any meal. Growing up in the stagflation of the 70s a lot of us did exactly this when required.

Kellogg is further left and more woke than Disney.

I use cereal as a vector for eating fruit - slice up some bananas or toss some blueberries in a bowl of Cheerios.

Healthier alternative than most other midnight snack choices.

I’ve worn the Libre series of diabetic glucose monitors, and I can tell you that NOTHING will spike your blood sugar like breakfast cereal does. It’s basically poison and should be avoided. I was sad to give it up, because it does taste good obviously with all the sugar, but combined with the grain it’s a nightmare for your blood sugar.

You can eat pancakes or waffles with light syrup and not get the sugar spike that most breakfast cereals will give you.

Fifty pounds of good quality oatmeal is about 18 dollars. A fairly good basis for a diet when pennypinching

When I saw these commercials, my first thought was, “That’s a clever marketing strategy. Get people to eat cereal for more than just in the morning.”

I still don’t think it’s as big a deal as all that.

Cereal is insanely expensive given what you get. Much better response to inflation is to not buy cereal.

Who would boycott over this? Three or four times in the past few weeks I’ve dumped some ricechex into a bowl out of sheer lazyness.

Stop buying cereal
Pay more for replacement food

Brilliant

What’s wrong with his statement? I ate cereal when I was in college. Big deal, one of my ex girlfriend used to feed her kids cereal at times. She worked, but her ex never pay her support for her kids and she made more so no EBT.

Cereal is pure junk food any way. Might as well eat a honey bun.

“We have to reach the consumer where they are. So we’re advertising about cereal for dinner.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hmmmmm.... could be the best marketing program since Real Coke!
