November 17 2005 -- Size (doesn't!) matters.
|
When it comes to cereal yogurt is the new black. It's showing up everywhere, it seems like all the makers of breakfast foods want to get in on the action. Well, as to not miss out on the fun our good budday's at Life cereal have decided to get in on the hype and release their own stab at grabbing a share of this market.
(woo my camera works again!)
Yup. Life Cereal with vanilla yogurt crunch. Life cereal has been a part of American culture for a very long time. Ever since Mikey hit the scene in 1971 people have been eating Life cereal and thinking about how it's good for you (eh, at least better for you than Halloween Lucky Charms) and how kids like it (although Kix has taken over that title too. Oops). What ever happened to good wholesome pleasant commercial experiences like that? Today it’s all about boobs and sex.
So yeah, they've updated themselves with sleek new box art and tossed in some yogurt with hopes that people will see it in the isles and jump at the chance to try it. Well, it worked, at least for me. I saw it while walking around the new Stop and Shop on Easton Ave in New Brunswick, NJ. What a nice store. Brand new joint with a very nice salad bar. You should check it out if you are ever in town. Unfortunately for my ego I was beaten to that store by 78west's polls own Ryan. It was a devastating blow when I heard that he was at the store over the weekend. There I was, all proud that I had gone to a brand new store only a few days after it had opened up. So proud was I that I even went and bought some new cereal at this new store. Then came the phone conversation last night.. Ryan had been there 3 days before me. I was crushed. This "new" store was already old news. My manhood was gone and I was a broken boy.
Sadness.
 But the cereal, at least that is still new, I think. Pouring it out I was at first a little let down by the lack of the yogurt crunches in there. Just look at how small they are! Anyone who tells you size does not matter is lying to you. I should know. I've been there. I've complained about people's sizes all the time. And by people I mean men. And by men I mean Jason, man, how gay is he? But then I filled up the spoon with the white goodness and shoved it in my mouth (once again I am sure you can all relate to that statement). Ooo, what a pleasant surprise! It actually tasted good! Too bad that statement can't really be related to by you ladies out there. It seems as though for once quality makes up for quantity. Eating the cereal was a nice pleasant experience. The yogurt worked will with the Life.. um.. things? What do you call them anyway? Cereal pieces? Life pieces? How long has it been since you played Life? Been a really long time for me, years in fact. Perhaps a decade? Oh how the years have gone by, it really was a pleasant time playing that game with the family..
Oh wait, sorry, sidetracked. Back to the cereal.
After the cereal sits for a while the milk also becomes a pleasant vanilla as well providing for a nice drink when you are finished for your meal. After having a few more bowls of this stuff during this week I must say that its a very nice addition to anyone's cereal collection.
4 cheeses. I am sure Mikey would like this one too. And just to let you know, Mikey is not dead.
Special prize for the first person to count the number of times I used the word pleasant in this review.
