Cops Say Alabama Man Assaulted Roommate Over Stale Cap'n Crunch Cereal
IHeart Radio News ^ | 2/9/18

Posted on 02/09/2018 2:43:10 PM PST by iowamark

An Alabama man has been arrested after allegedly assaulting his roommate for failing to properly seal a box of Cap'n Crunch cereal, which had gone stale. Fifty-two year-old Duane Barry Smith was charged for domestic violence charges after he allegedly assaulted a man he shares a residence with in Moundville, a small town outside Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

Police say Smith got upset with his roommate after he discovered the Cap'n Crunch cereal had gone stale, blaming the man for failing to properly seal the cereal box. Smith was especially angry since he is missing teeth, making it difficult to eat.

At one point, Smith demanded the roommate remove his dentures to see what it was like try and consume the stale cereal. When he refused, Smith began hitting him with a laptop charger cord. Police say the victim suffered several injuries to his face, hand and arm. A domestic violence misdemeanor conviction in Alabama can carry a sentence ranging from a month to a year in jail.

You mean liquified McDonald’s french fries?

I refuse to get in an argument over which would are healthier. The French fries are mostly vegetable oil and the Captain Crunch is mostly sugar so combined they do go have two essential ingredients in the modern American diet.

These two guys are not Cap'n Crunch material.

Froot Loops is more like it.

BTW Cap'n Crunch is really just Commander Crunch.

Needs to get court-martialed for being an imposter.

Maybe bust him with the Stolen Valor law of W.

I heard a rumor that if you have a package of baked goods made without preservatives, you can put a McDonald’s french fry in the package to make it last longer. And by “longer,” I mean longer than mankind.

I was about to say, even with all of my teeth it seems at least once a bowl I’ll get one of those buggers up into my gums and it feels like its ripping a chunk out!

I was almost going to buy a box at Costco yesterday, but it was a three pack that included peanut butter Cap’n Crubch or something. Yuck! And they didn’t have Lucky Charms on the shelves now either!!!

“I could see it, if somebody ate all my crunch berries”

They actually make a Capn Crunch now called “Oops! All Berries”. You can use that to replenish the cereal when someone handpicks all the Berries. LOL.

Use your own ziplock bags and put them back into the boxes. You get several uses.

When we lived in Los Angeles cereal absorbed moisture and became stale without proper precautions. But bread didn’t dry out in the one minute or so it took to make a couple sammiches. Here in Flagstaff, AZ it is the opposite, you don’t have to worry much that your cereal becomes stale, but you better keep the bread wrapped up tight.

There is no expiration date on McDonalds French fries, but if I find one under the seat of my van I won’t eat it if its more than two years old unless I am really hungry. That is partially because I am a bit of a germophobe.

That’s understandable, but you could run them through the dishwasher on the sanitize cycle.
