Visit the Cheap-Ass Cereal Hall of Fame

Mashmallow1On the heels of Cereality opening its third location in Chicago, and Wheaties' first television spot in nearly five years from Saatchi & Saatchi, the breakfast staple is gaining new cachet. But before you go shelling out the extra dough (and at Cereality that's not just a reference to food product—it’s nearly four bucks for a bowl for a name brand), be sure to check out some of the knockoffs you can get for a fraction of the price. A helpful guide can be found at the Cheap-Ass Cereal Hall-of-Fame, which will educate you on cereal varieties such as Silly Circles (i.e., Froot Loops)  Apple Yos (a hip-hop version of Apple Jacks) and Marshmallow Magic (Lucky Charms). However, if you’re a Harvard student, no need to visit the site. As we’ve already reported, you’re probably already familiar with these brands.

You should give credit where it is due. I submitted it to Fark, by the way.

I speak only for myself and not Fark. I don't care who gets credit. I'm drunk. Sorry.
