Where's me lucky charms?
Seriously, whatever happened to it in this country? Do they still have them in other countries? I imagine they do in the States. I really liked them when I was younger, they were my favourite cerial.
I still have my Lucky Charms mug, though the 'magical' feature does not work anymore, sadly.

Well, apparently you've never tried preparing your cereal the night before you eat it. Good 'n' soggy then.

This sounds evil, and I must get it. Any idea what the brand is? I think I might be able to order it online...!
Yeah it sounds good. I might have to take a trip to Aldi just for that.

You're right floop, it wasn't Colon Blow. It was Quarry and it came way before Colon Blow.

Haha, that's a great one. It's still not as good as "Swill", though.
Salesman: [ seated at lunch counter ] As a salesman, I do a lot of traveling. And when it comes to lunch, I grab what I can, usually on the run. And when I want mineral water, I keep it simple, and I keep it domestic. [ places bottle on counter ] I drink Swill. The water that's dredged from Lake Erie.
[ voice over video of Swill being dredged from Lake Erie ]
Nothing's added to Swill. It comes straight from the Lake to you. Maybe you thought only European countries had mineral water, but let me tell you: we bottle some pretty special water right here in America.
[ cut back to Salesman at lunch counter ]
Yeah. America. Water with a character all its own. Swill's refreshing; it's low in calories; and Swill helps wash down a hearty meal like this that tends to just lay in your stomach. [ pours runny ketchup on his hamburger ]
[ Music Over: "Anticipation" by Carly Simon ]
[ Plays as Swill slowly pours into Salesman's glass, complete with sludge, dirt and a flip-top from a soda can ]
Salesman: I like mine with a twist. [ squeezes a lime wedge into his glass of Swill ]
Announcer: Swill. Everything you've always wanted in a mineral water. And more.

I was once addicted to that cereal. I used to buy a couple boxes when I'd see it on sale. I'd get one of the regular flavor and one with almonds. I think it might be laced with some addictive contraband. |

it doesn't taste as good.

Ah, you're wrong there. Chocolate graham crackers are good for this too, but they get soggy REALLY fast. |

Rice Krispies in chocolate milk,
its the poor man's count chocula ;) |
| darwin |
Posted - 06/21/2004 : 13:23:41
Yep, Rice Chex have to be eaten immediately. Rice Crispies are best eaten as half bowls with phone calls and distressed kids being ignored until the meal is complete.
Even a sugery cereal like Froot Loops loses alot if you let it sit for minute. |

this sounds like an excerpt from A CLOCKWORK ORANGE: "cereal is blurghy. it goes soggy fast like a horrible mushy" :)
yeah, all cereals have a window of time before they become too soggy. some more than others. Rice Chex for instance, go soggy VERY fast. you've gotta eat those things up pretty quickly. but then something like Coca Puffs or Cap'n Crunch, has so many artifical ingredients they almost never go soggy. the milk can't penetrate the artifical barrier surrounding them. |

By the way, Cocoa Krispies are fantastic. It turns the milk choclatey.

can't get into anything these days. Always on the peripheral. Always terrified, exhausted, annoyed, pissed, anxious, out of it-out of the loop, out of my mind, out of time.

I think there was a cereal like this once, like the "marshmallows" and not the other stuff. I can't remember the name, though. I think it flopped due to the negative total nutritional value. |
| floop |
Posted - 06/21/2004 : 09:48:58
the marshmellows are the best part though. Lucky Charms should make a cereal that's just the marshmallows, like how Cap'n Crunch made one with just berries. |
| The Calistanian |
Posted - 06/21/2004 : 08:34:17
Yeah, I never knew why they called them marshmallows. They're as hard as a rock, and don't look like a marshmallow. They should call them "sugar shapes".

They still have Lucky Charms in the States, but I've never actually eaten them, as far as I can recall. I never really ate cold cereal much. Probably largely because I don't like milk.
