    This, again. Turn off the comments. Every. Single. Time.

    On the other hand, if you're in the camp of "all publicity is good publicity", I hadn't thought about Cheerios in years before all this. Not any more or less motivated to buy them, but it did get the name out there.

    So, if we had a black, lesbian, Methodist in the oval office we'd see some crazy shit?

    Yep, it brings out the worst in people. Methodist would be tolerable. Mormon or Muslim would not be. If there ever was an open Muslim elected president, he would be assassinated within a month. And the shooter would justify by saying God told him to do so to save America.

    That'd never happen in America, no way would anyone Muslim be elected. We'll have an Athiest as president before that happens which I don't think is a bad idea. I'd like someone in the highest position in the land who doesn't need God for guidance.

    Yet the GOP nominated a Mormon for President, who then lost, but it wasn't because of his religion.

    And Methodist is tolerable? John Wesley weeps.

    Just wondering. Was the ad for the multi-grain Cheerios?

    Imagine the Christian right's reaction if a Unitarian or Deist were nominated in today's climate.

    My cereal pantry, at the moment, is nothing but Cheerios. Multgrain, regular, chocolate, peanut butter multigrain. My 15-year-old, who generally does nothing quickly, can snarf down a box of chocolate Cheerios like Roy Hibbert sucking down Gatorade (if you don't know what I mean, google "Roy Hibbert Challenge"). Our box tops have played a critical part in allowing our junior high to buy exercise equipment.

    Cheerios are great, if you put enough sugar on them.

    Anyone actually seen these racist Cheerios comments?

    The aftertaste is horrible.

    Peanut butter multigrain is a gift from the cereal gods.
