I admit I have a problem. I can't go to the grocery store, even if I'm just running in for milk, without scouring the cereal aisle. I fear the possibility that Freakies or Dinersaurs could come back and I wouldn't be the first one to know. Most companies don't want to fork out the money these days to strap a giant plastic Batman bank on the front of the box, but I still have to scope out what freebies are being offered instead. While I'm not too interested in what MP3s Post wants me to download, I am interested in a new cereal Kellogg's is offering.



I'm all about cereal laden with crap that's not usually good for you like cookies, chocolate, sprinkles, and marshmallows. I've been scratching my head for weeks now trying to figure out why Wal-Mart had no monster cereal during the Halloween season even though I SWEAR I saw it over the summer. Bitch wants her Boo-Berry.

No size comparison is given on the box, and in my mind I was forging an idea of a Cookie Crisp and Oreo O's mix. Unfortunately the "Fudge Shoppe" pieces are more like Cheerios with some chocolate stripes and the "Chips Deluxe" don't pack nearly the punch of Cookie Crisp. They're not terribly unworthy, but I think I'd have to mix in some Teddy Grahams to really be impressed. The elves are really slipping on this one. Maybe they should have gone for Magic Middles cereal instead.
