WEIRD but is it TRUE?!

A cereal killer in the making?

In the sunny, earth-quake prone state of California, a judge threw out a lawsuit filed by a woman who sued Quaker-Oats, the manufacturer of Cap'n Crunch with Crunchberries. Her complaint was she had been eating it for four years before she discovered that Crunchberries are NOT real fruit! (Huh?!)

The woman insisted she never would have bought the cereal if she knew that the Crunchberries are nothing more than tiny, colored, cereal balls.

Dingleberrie is more like it! :~o

In younger years I loved me some of da Cap'ns finest. Those little golden nuggets were damn delicious! The only problem was the texture of said nugget was so sharp, children across the USofA were constantly cutting up the roofs of their poor innocent mouths- mine included.

The trade-off was fine with me as the cereal's yumminess factor and toy surprise usually far outweighed the blood-letting and stitches!

Anybody got milk?! :-)

the judge should not only have thrown this case out, but he should also have sentenced her to a daily slap upside the head.... for life.

How does someone get that stupid?

I mean... seriously?
North Americans pride themselves on being 'advanced', educated, and we exist in such a privileged society compared to most of the rest of the world... that kinda stupid should be painful.

What a dumbass. How did this even make the headlines?

Cap'n Crunch will always be my favorite cereal. Trix comes in second. Oh, and I never was a fan of Lucky Charms.

Sigh... too bad I haven't had any of those in 5+ years.

Huzzah for organic oatmeal! Not...
