Kellogg’s S’mores cereal and the threat posed by its creators–from the archives

If there is one thing I am absolutely certain of in this world it is this: Those people behind that whole S’mores Cereal deal, those good folks over at Kellogg’s, don’t give one whit about our waistlines.

These are the same good folks who said “Yes, Corn Flakes are good for you and can be a good part of a good breakfast, but when we dip them in liquid sugar, threy’re Grrr….” Yeah, I’m not even going to try that.

And now we get S’mores cereal. Oh, but what heinous villains they are to bathroom scales everywhere. If they had any common decency they would have pulled the punch on the flavor just a bit. But no, not these jokers; they hit you with it full blast.

They give you the delicious and crispy sweet, little graham crackers, and they hit you with crunchy chocolate balls, before they throw in the marshmallows for the trifecta.

But you can’t look at it like that, because this symphony isn’t about the individual pieces; rather, it’s the bursting of deliciousness that happens at their point of union. How can you not?

And everybody’s all worried about North Korea; maybe it’s just me, but when it comes to thoughts of who might present a threat to world security, I’m more concerned about people as crafty and callous as these.
