Lol name brand cereal? In this economy?
Get you a 25lb unmarked box to last the year.
Keep eating it well after its gone stale.
Shit, is that an option? Do they sell ultrabulk economy boxes of cereal? Preferably without sugar??
Apparently, Amazon does have it. Can't speak to the sugar.
~~Jesus, sometimes you forget how calorie dense seed oils are. Hilariously, adding more sugar to the recipe would actually reduce the calories/serving.~~ turns out it’s 3/4 cup
So you're saying I should go back to being a kid and scoop three spoons full of sugar on this cereal?
I once heard a nutritionist say it was better to give your kid an unsweetened cereal and a bowl of sugar and just let them go nuts, because the vast majority of kids aren't going to spoon enough sugar on it to match what comes in the sweetened stuff. The equivalent of seven spoonfuls, if I remember right.
Wow what kind of rookie kids were they surveying?
Was he taking into account whether or not said kid would shovel up the sugary sludge at the bottom of the bowl when all the solid stuff was gone?
Pretty sure he was counting on it. I sure as hell did it.
Or just eat pure sugar and take a multivitamin.

It’s for a 3/4 cup serving which doesn’t seem all that unreasonable.
I’m sure you can see how I could make that mistake. My bad
My expectations are that the 1% will genocide the working class after full automation. They literally cannot go lower.
My hopes are the reverse happens after they fire everyone in favor of automation, the working class eats the fucking rich.
Numerically the odds are in our favor.
Yeah but we don't really have the best track record
Letting us all die is cheaper than the cost of the bullets
Exactly. It will be genocide by unemployment.
i remember this from tv
I can still hear the jingle in my head

Lowered expectations? Hah!
No expectations, no disappointments 👍
But, the boxes contain half the weight, are twice the price, and contain next to zero nutrient value.
Plus they're made from free prison labor farming the ingredients.
Do lower your expectations.
Don't forget the market capitalists are the ones that both fed you those expectations through their media machines, captured government, and influence on education, and now expect you to work just as hard if not harder with no expectation of retirement or even enough to indulge personal hobbies or experiences as you subsist creating value for them, more and more likely than ever to death.
Also don't forget whenever you're pressured by their captured society to feel guilt for being lazy for not working even harder to enrich them in exchange for a tiny sliver of the value you generate them, you know the "you're poor because you do the minimum at work and don't also have 2 side gigs, sleep when you're dead get that grind brah" crap, that the owners live their lives on vacation, barking mandates, layoffs, and activist shareholder threats via email that subordinates will have to entirely plan and execute while buzzed and high from some elite club, resort, penthouse, yacht, or wherever they feel inspired to vegetate that day on your back.
Oh yeah, that's the stuff.
Holy crap. That upscaling...wow.
Not upscaling, direct 35 mm print transfers.
If your tight on cash stop buying low grade food like anything kellogg sells.
This is a let down in comparison with "let them eat cake"
Curb your enthusiasm
Cereal is $7 to $11 per box at my grocery store.
Then after a few weeks they go on sale down to $2-$4 each as long as you buy 3 or 4 at once.
Infuriating shit.
Kellogg's cereal is over-priced. I know some of the off-brand cereals can suck but the ones from ALDI (and probably most of the great value knock-offs) taste about the same as the original for 1/2 to 1/3 the cost these days.
pfft. those born in the 60's and seventies actually got to experience the 60's and 70's. a bit anyway. those nineties almost fooled us though.
Not me, I'm a guy and I just travel overseas.
