But if he’d endorsed Fruit Loops, he’d have been hailed as a paragon of tolerance who appreciates diversity.

I’d like to see an athlete endorse packaged chocolate donuts.

Your wish is my command... After John Belushi won the Olympic Decathalon...

What is all this yip-yip-yapping about breakfast cereal? Breakfast cereal is for kids. Real people eat real breakfasts like eggs, sausage, bacon, buttered toast, grits and flapjacks.

That cigarette reminds me of a You Tube clip I watched today of Dean Martin singing while smoking a cigarette. Plus he was drunk. Those were the days, huh? By the way, that guy really has an amazing voice. Who knew? I’ve heard people talk about Sinatra, but not Dean Martin so much. He’s good.

Yikes! All that fiber sure hasn’t helped Ms. Solomon.

Maybe if she indulged in some Frosted Flakes with cream once in a while, she’d be happier and not such a party pooper.

"I would rather see him promoting Fiber One. I would rather see him promoting oatmeal. I would even rather see him promoting Cheerios."

Yea, but first, tell us what your offer was.

For enough dough, I'll endorse these. I've never competed in the Olympics but I've watched some. You could state that right on the box in tiny little print in Chinese. I'm also pretty sure that I've eaten most of these at some point in the past.

"I would not consider Frosted Flakes the food of an Olympian," said nutritionist Rebecca Solomon of Mount Sinai Medical Center.

An Olympian eats Frosted Flakes, but Ms. Solomon wouldn't consider them the food of an Olympian.

Quiz time:

Which reality exists?

A) Frosted Flakes are the food of an Olympian.
B) Frosted Flakes are not the food of an Olympian.

If you are a liberal, it is "B", because an expert said so. Facts do not matter.

At the old folks home maybe. But Frosted Flakes are for kids. They burn up the sugar in ten minutes. (At least mine do)

There are more great smoking ads here.

Santa, most doctors and your baby say, “smoke ‘em if you got ‘em!”

Yeah, but we were all outside playing burning off all those Frosted Flakes and Sugar Smacks back then. Now they go from the kitchen table to the couch ~ if they’re not already eating on the couch to save energy!

Lucky Charms, a close 2nd.
The winner by a landslide, has to be....Cap’n Crunch!
