Good Ol’ Days
I don’t know about you but, have you ever wondered about the good ol’ days when you would wake up Saturday morning, run to the kitchen and grab the biggest bowl in the cabinet, then proceed to pour your favorite sugar-coated, marshmallow filled, artificial colored, cereal. Then sit down in front the T.V. to watch “One Saturday Morning”. I sure do. Now what I’m wondering is where has all the good un-nutritious cereal gone. Feels as if my childhood memories disappeared with the “Good Ol’ Days” cereal.
Everything was simplier then & I believe that it was portrayed in the cereal of the time. Now everything is over complicated and difficult for no reason. What happened to my toy being in my cereal box. Now kids have to collect 5 box tops to send in (don’t forget shipping + handling little ones!) just to get a stupid Batman launcher that breaks after 3 days of playing, or gets lost in the sea of box tops needed for the kids to get their other “FREE PRIZE”. Every cereal on the shelf now is ‘Whole Grain’, ‘Organic’, or ‘Sugar Free’. Who ever said kids wanted that. I know I don’t. Give me back my marshmallows and sugar injected flakes and puffs of grains. You need the sugary goodness to cover up the nasty and slightly disturbing taste of whole grain oats and bran (WTF is bran anyway?!?!). WTF is Splenda. It taste like real sugar, try it. LIARS!!! The american government, parents and nutritionist are evil cereal killers (pun intended). Tricks are for kids, so everyone else should just butt out. You have now taken the joy out of cereal. You have now taken the joy out of life.
Whose idea was it to interfere with the simplicity and slightly innocent form of cereal. As a kid cereal was probably one of your only options you possessed. Do you want the Fruity Pebbles, Captain Crunch, Apple Jacks, Cookie Crisp or Cinnamon Toast Crunch? You didn’t have any other choices, so the ones you did where important. Kids now have to endure, the pain of ” I bought you Honey Bunches of Oats”. More like Honey Bunches of Crap. The name tricks you to think your in for a treat. Mmmmmm Honey!!! More like eeeewww soggy (dam thin flakes). I think I need a lawyer, suing them for false advertisement.
Bring back my original Golden Krisp, Smacks, Kaboom, Frosted Flakes (with all the sugar not that 1/3 less sugar nonsense), CoCo Puffs, Lucky Charms, Rice Krispie Treats (yes they did have a cereal), Count Chocula, Honey Combs, Fruit Loops, and Corn Pops .
FREE MARSHMALLOWS!!!
