Blue Milk of Super Ilk

Having already tasted my fair share of Superman Returns treats, and receiving email suggestions from a bunch o' people, I broke down and bought a box of Cap'n Crunch's Limited Edition Superman Crunch. The only difference about it is that it comes with Superman shield emblems instead of the usual crunch berries. Here's the kicker though, the red shields turn your milk blue. SCIENCE!

Show me a cow that makes blue milk and I'll marry it.

As you can see, it's not the brightest blue out there, but it still gets the job done. Most importantly, however, it tastes as good as ever. I do have one question though, have they changed Cap'n Crunch over the years? I used to remember this stuff literally shredding the roof of my mouth after eating it. Granted it's been a good while since I've had the stuff, but it didn't even break the skin this time. Have they made Cap'n Crunch less destructive? I'm not sure if I should be happy or sad about it. On one hand, I'm glad my mouth isn't in pain. On the other, I always kind of liked that you had to endure the cereal. That was the trade-off for enjoying something so tasty. Well, I'll eat a couple handfuls of the cereal without any milk later on and see if that does the trick. Guess that makes me a cereal sadist.

And while we're on the topic of cereal, I just stumbled onto an old photo of me forcing McClain to eat a bowl of Boo Berry cereal:

I command you to eat Boo Berry cereal NOW MISTER!
One of my favorite photos for sure.

update: On another breakfast-related note, PickleMan's Breakfast Battle is now online!

Here In canada, the milk turns red... Maybe in canada we see Superman as a blood thirsty Maniac?
P'shaw, and you people say Canada's for pussies.

I can feel good that the last cereal that I have eaten in the past 4 years was Boo Berry.

Wow, I really need some Boo Berry...Anyone know where I can get it? (Besides the internet)

Darnin, Wal-Marts, though they may be evil, tend to be the most reliable places when it comes to finding Boo Berry cereal. I've had more people report to me that they found boxes of it there than anywhere else.

-RoG- as a fool who foolishly works for such an evil corporation, i do agree that boo berry can be found horded in the wal-marts around the country because it is made out of the souls of the assoiates who work there, wal-mart has a deal with GM. i have to go i have said too much

Hmmm... The Cap'n no longer tears the roof of your mouth off? ...but does it still leave your mouth feeling like you've been sucking on a wad of wax for an hour or two? ...*may have to investigate this possible sacrilege on her childhood eating hardships.*

-RoG-, now that you're in CA, you can get the same soft-palette shredding delight out of Peanut Butter Puffins (at your local Trader Joes). The cereal pieces are twice as big as the Cap'n's, and I'd venture to say, twice as delectable.

They're twice as organic, anyway.

(insert praising/super-positive comment about the new Pickleman Flash because it is super-awesome here.)

You'd be safer with a bowl of Broken glass and razor blades than cap'n crunch.
I thought of getting this but I was already getting some justice league dvds, and that was geeky enough.

Captin' crunch still cuts my mouth all to hell T_T

i love all that superman food! but then again, i had sex with a ninja, so im probebly just insane.

Bizarcane, as I do shop at Trader Joes, I might have to give those a try sometime. Thanks for the suggestion!

AngryHydralisk, thanks man, glad you enjoyed the PickleMan's Breakfast Battle movie! All the credit goes to Pox though cuz he put in all that time drawing and animating it... I just wrote the thing.

Orange, don't lie. We all know that ninjas, much like the praying mantis, kill their mates and eat them after sex. If you had sex with a ninja, you wouldn't be posting in the blog.

They won't turn your milk fabric-softener blue, though. This is certainly a drawback in the realm of entertaining breakfast foods.

Ha, look at that pansy! Boo berry is great.

I never knew that Cap'n Crunch tore up your mouth.... But then my mom never bought it for me (damn her for mostly buying Rice Chex!!!). ....Maybe thats why.



Guest

RICHARD (Guest) on 07/15/2006 7:16 pm

I'll do my best to get that cereal :o, MAKE LOVE TO ME

I busted out laughing at the expression on his face while eating those Boo Berries. Thanks alot, now I'll be laughing all day and end up choking on my lunch again!

....Maybe I'm weird, but I like Peanut Butter Crunch. I ate it without milk.
