It’s National Cereal Day, So Let’s Fire Up a Bowl…I Mean, Pour a Bowl. There, That’s Better
Seems there is a special day for just about everything nowadays. Well, today is no different, it's National Cereal Day today. Yes, that magical day we all celebrate to great contributions to our lives that breakfast cereals have made. I pretty much grew up on the standards like Cheerios, Rice Krispies and the occasional block of Shredded Wheat. Later, though I despise how some cereals have bastardized themselves, I moved up to Spoon Sized Frosted Shredded Wheat. Good stuff! Actually, I used to also eat Grape Nuts. Man, it was like shoveling gravel through my system but Grape Nuts spokesman Euel Gibbons said it was a very healthy cereal and that was good enough for me. Damn if Euel didn't keel over from a massive heart attack. So that was it for Grape Nuts. never got into the over sugared stuff. No Count Chocula, Lucky Charms, Fruity Pebbles aor any of that crap we feed our kids but that's a whole other article. Here are some Cereal Fun Facts (and I use the term facts loosely) compiled by our friends at Wise Brothers Complete Sheet.
