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.

You're right floop, it wasn't Colon Blow. It was Quarry and it came way before Colon Blow.
Proving the worth of the internet, here's a 4 pages devoted to FICTIONAL cereal:

I vaguely recall the jingle. Something about "swimming holes" and "cereal made from stone." |

If cereal stays hard the whole time, then it's too abrasive on the roof of my mouth.
The soggier it gets...the better.

2. You must be wearing Zubaz, 'cause you're daring to be different.

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.

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