If we have to put labels on coffee cups warning people that the coffee is hot for fear of a lawsuit, I’m sure any hit that there may be “fruit” in a cereal when everyone knows there isn’t could also be a lawsuit in the making.

… like there would be any inkling of nutritional fruit-stuffs in the ingredients. (Even if they were, they would be overrun by the onslaught of sugary chemicals and destroyed prior to them being absorbed by your body.)

It’s a Frute Brute war in your stomach at the anatomical level! Now that’s scary … !!!

I just wanted to show off more of my cereal memorabilia. I have enough love in my heart for all of the cereals, regardless of brand or creed.

Nice “dis” (unintentionally, I’m sure) at Kellogg’s by featuring the hosted cereals served in the lowly Snap, Crackle and Pop cereal bowl …

POW … !!!

I figured they just wanted “Frute” to match “Brute.” :-)

Although the Yummy Mummy contains the word “Fruity” so I don’t really understand the difference. What I mostly love is the fact that both titles rhyme!
