This is an perfect example of
bad publicity is actually good PR
Couple of days ago
the Cheerios FB backlash
which suddenly reminded me of buying one
let's summarize the issue
Cheerios came out with the legal term of
if you like the FB page,
you actually give up
your legal right to sue
Look, they have 1m likes on FB
hence someone started an
"unlike" drive which kinda hurt
and the snowballed effect of
non fans and organizations which
took this quite seriously
forced them to withdraw the statement
Haha interesting right
probably because I did a thesis on
crisis management and social media
these episodes never fail to interest me
Back to the story of the cereal killer
okay so I was reminded that
I have never tasted Cheerios
seriously, never ever
So I bought one
but I am sure it wouldn't taste bad
1/5 of corn flake
1/5 of rice crisp
1/5 of wheat ring
1/5 of roasted oat
1/5 of barley
Wait a minute
how does barley taste like actually
not the barley Asian boil as drink right?
Anyway
I still have some cereals actually
like another 1/2 kg?
because I was infected with the
compulsive cereal buying behaviors
not too long ago
It all started with this vintage tin
which i can’t resist and
i have missed a few rounds of getting
I found a healthier way to munch
Which is to
(i) mix corn flake with
Choc flavour cereal to
balance the sweetness
(ii) storing it in an opaque container
See no evil munch no evil
(iii) using a measuring cup
so that you can actually
set a limit to how much you eat
Instead of munching straight
from the cereal sea
before you know it
500g is gone in days
I have never eaten cereal with milk
a munch monster I am
the notorious cereal killer
so here’s my review for Cheerios
Erm
letting aside the dog-food-appearance
I actually like the taste of Cheerios
it tastes like Want Want Senbei and
also Corn-rice based Twisties snack
no joke
but of course the healthier version
keep calm and munch on
