  • THIS WILL BOWL YOU OVER
    This will please this gal, as only few things ever do.  I
    originally started this out as a "reward" for my excellent diet skills
    for the past couple of weeks by going from OK-but-healthy "Basic 4:
    Whole Grain" cereal to yummy-but-not-as-healthy "1/2 the sugar Fruity
    Pebbles".  I was shocked to discover this:

    1/2 the sugar Fruity Pebbles versus Basic 4: Whole Grain

    • Sugar
      • Fruity Pebbles - 5g
      • Basic 4 - 14g
    • Calories
      • Fruity Pebbles - 150
      • Basic 4 - 240
    • Sodium
      • Fruity Pebbles - 230mg
      • Basic 4 - 320mg
    • Carbs
      • Fruity Pebbles - 22g
      • Basic 4 - 42g
    • Total Fat
      • Fruity Pebbles - 1.5g
      • Basic 4 - 3g

    Whoever thought that a kid cereal would be better for you than one
    of those healthy cereals that's placed on the opposite end of the
    aisle?  However, a lady
    out in somewhere, California is suing the big 3 cereal makers for
    misleading nutritional advertising... part of me hopes she's right and
    really sticks it to The Man but the other part does not want to give up
    my good & tasty Fruity Pebbles.  Go healthy and yummy cereals and we all win out!

  • no no will. you definitely have integrity! that's why you can see the humor behind something totally untrue. right????

  • people are too sue happy. before i know it you'll be suing me for content stealing...oh right right though...you have too much integrity for that. though i am sorry, i hope you can accept my humble apology.

  • hay will...dude, what does this mean? "... otherwise you would have been on one of them like green on grass."?? They are all interesting to me, but maybe not interesting in the way you mean it. ha. I told my parents what you said about them. next time you go through c'ville, they will be happy to make you some huli huli!
