special k chocolatey bleh

I had a coupon for $1 off Special K cereal. I also enjoy chocolate, so I thought it'd be a good idea to get the Special K with the dark chocolate in it. Contrary to its description, it's not very delightful. They morphed the chocolate somehow so that it wouldn't melt in the milk, but it's just a weird taste and texture to me. I tried to fix it by using chocolate milk in the cereal. It kind of made it yuckier. Today, I just dumped a bunch of cinnamon on it, and now it's not bad. I'll probably just do this to all my bleh cereals. I think an overdose of cinnamon just reminds me of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, probably my favorite kid cereal.

If you know me, you know that I don't like kid cereal. Even when I was a kid, I'd eat Crispix and Just Right, which I don't think they sell in the US anymore (boo). I think Lucky Charms are gross, and those marshmallows are like eating sugared styrofoam. Fruit Loops are also multi-colored grossness to me, but Fruity Cheerios are not bad since it still tastes like human food. Actually, all of the Cheerios are good.

My mom was very anti-food coloring when I was a kid, so I guess that's kind of transferred onto me. Plus, the first time I had a blue Garfield fruit roll up, I crapped out blue. MMMMM yummy.

  1. What was that book - Chocolate Fever or something? That kid who ate too much chocolate and turned into chocolate. I didn't actually read the book, but I saw the crappy afternoon cartoon movie. He had to take a vanilla pill to cure himself, and then he started eating cinnamon.
