This post reminded me of my favorite part of Cryptonomicon, where the author dwells (for pages) on the correct way to serve and eat Cap'n Crunch. It's brilliant.

I once had a wildly irreverent friend who used to make Top Ten lists (ala David Letterman) in sacrament meeting at our singles ward to keep us all awake. My favorite was his “Top Ten Rejected Cereals” list that he made one Fast Sunday. Sadly I don’t remember a single one except the top cereal: Grape Ape Nuts. I never laughed so hard so quietly in my life.

And then there was that girl who got up and bore testimony about how awful we were for laughing at other people’s testimonies. I’m not sure if it would have made her feel better or not to know what we were actually laughing at.

The best part? That friend is now the principal of a Jr. High, and a Stake President. Grape Ape Nuts. HA!

The best thing about Honey Bunches of Oats is that you can call them Crunchy Bunnies and Goats, which I always do.

Same with GoLean Crunch, if you pronounce it Go-Le-An Crunch -> MONgolian Crunch -> Dried Yak Bits, which is actually fairly descriptive of their appearance.

I’m going to go eat some of each of these RIGHT NOW. I’m not even kidding.

Scott B. – Grape Nuts are neither grapes, not nuts. They are an abomination.

Cookie Crisp is the best sugary serial

Generic Frosted mini wheeties is the best mild cereal

Bananbix, made by the people who made wheetabix is the worst cereal, but only when you remember that grape nuts is not cereal. Grape nuts is Soylent Green.

Hey. Don’t hate the Kix. I love Wheaties. Except when I think how they’re made (goat vomit).

In order to both condemn myself and absolve myself, I will concede that whenever I go to Starbucks (I can see the masses calling for my burning), I get a strawberries & cream blended creme with toffeenut.

Tastes just like crunchberries but is fit for the mouth of the Pea Princess.

John Scherer–The Holy Trinity of Ghost Cereals on one dinner table is something few have dared to dream of. I weep bitterly for your unsuccessful attempt to provide such for the children. For the children!
