Slice ‘em if you got ‘em

Posted @ 2:08 pm by Dan

bananas

Breakfast time has always equaled fun time here at the CerealBlogger household. We start each day with 2 scoops of smiles and a cup and a half of 2% milkfat giggles. If your family has a tough time getting aroused in the morning, why not spice things up a bit with a little morning magic?

The following guide gives you step-by-step instructions on how to make magic bananas that are magically sliced, before you even peel them! All you need to perform this nifty trix are a ‘nana, a sewing needle, and some thread. Once you’ve spent some time prepping for breakfast, I recommend just sitting back, relaxing and letting your robot slave do the rest of the banana work for you.

I feel that this trick would also work well on expecting mothers who want a baby with a fresh new hairstyle.

Full guide here.

Cereious Download: Spy Fox

Posted @ 9:00 am by Pat

Spy fox

Soooo here’s the deal. Apparently old habits never die. Throughout much of high school and all of college I tended to leave work to the last minute. And of course this even holds true for my duties this very day at CerealBlogger. So here I am on a Sunday night trying to come up with a download and well, this is all I got. Don’t worry though I’ll make up for it next week!

This week its time to Spy baby Spy, Spy fox that is, in dry cereal that is. According to fact (aka anything in wikipedia) Spy Fox in Dry Cereal was made in 1997 by Giganto, oops i mean, Humongous Entertainment. It was distributed by Atari and designed as an adventure game for children. The game takes place on the fictional Greek island of Acidophilus, which coincidentally is the name for a milk additive. So the point of the game is to stop your evil nemesis from replacing all the great cow milk with terrible terrible goat’s milk.

The Bear of the Hour: Vitamins vs. Sugar

Posted @ 9:00 am by Elliot

This is an amazing video…but how well were you paying attention? Were you counting the number of times vitamins were mentioned? How about the word sugar? Well, if you didn’t you are in luck…I did!

Sugar(y): 12, Super: 8, Bear: 6, Crisp: 5, Vitamin(s): 4

Based on this data, Super Sugar Crisp should have 3 times the amount of sugar compared to the amount of vitamins…in each bite…right? The transcript has been posted after the jump for pleasure at your leisure.

The Vitamin and Mineral Minute: Niacin

Posted @ 9:00 am by Dan
Your day breaks, your mind aches. You find that all the words on the back of the cereal box linger on when you leave the table. It’s time for another day at the office.

Luckily for you, manufactured cereals are fortified with all sorts of nutritious vitamins and minerals. The bad news is that some recent studies have found that adding milk can actually strip some of these sprayed on nutrients from your cereal. All the more reason to drink your End Milk boys and girls. Stripping notwithstanding, I think its about time you learned a little more about what goes in your mouth every morning.

 

niacin

This week we are going to take a deep dive into the seedy world of Niacin, the nice guy of B vitamin gang. Niacin, or vitamin B3, is used by your body to help metabolize energy and assist with DNA repair. Niacin also aids in the production of several useful hormones, specifically those produced by your adrenal gland, including those related to stress and getting your swerve on.

A lack of Niacin in your diet can cause a low tolerance to the cold, and even lead to a pretty nasty disease called pellagra. This man did not get enough Niacin. Warning: this image may be too intense for younger Cerealites (that’s what we are going to refer to you as from now on). On the other end of the spectrum, too much Niacin in your diet can lead to blurred vision, flushed skin, nausea and headaches.

Don’t be a foolio now. This means a) don’t trade for Jorge Julio in your fantasy baseball league, the Ks are nice but the spotty ERA and WHIP will drive you mad, and b) try to ingest the doctor recommended dosage of between 14-20 mg of Niacin a day. As a reference, a hearty bowl of Cheerios contains approximately 5mg, or 25% of your daily value of Niacin.

In addition to delicious breakfast cereals and milk, Niacin can also be found in chicken, eggs, beef, nuts, mushrooms, broccoli, tomatoes, and leafy veggies.

In ‘G’ We Trust

Posted @ 9:00 am by Russ

 

dolla dolla Bee, yo!

Dial 9-1 on your phone and get that second ‘1′ ready. This deal is so smokin’ hot you might just die in a house fire.

With this printable coupon you can save $1.00 on any General Mills cereal. One dollar may not seem like much, but remember, the entire island of Manhattan was purchased from the Vikings for the price of one United States dollar back in 1770. Which is why New York is known today as ‘the city of the Viking dollar’.

Looking for something to do with that extra dollar burning a smokin’ hot hole in your pocket (of your smokin’ hot capris)? Well Elliot might just have a very good use for it soon so stay tuned!

This Weekend I got Kix in the Face!

Posted @ 12:00 pm by Elliot

totalparty

I know…it’s already Tuesday, but let’s face it, if you followed my advice on Friday then your weekend was probably a success. And that means Monday was a blur…and your friends probably all have photos of you involved in some sort of lowbrow high jinx. (see above) You know the sort: like this. And this. Oh, and this. And who could forget this ass!

If by some miracle you are still hungover today I have the perfect remedy: a sandwich…with a twist.
