Hold the crunch berries

Do you miss being back in college and surviving on nothing but Cap’n Crunch for three meals a day? If so, have I got the restaurant for you! Via WebMD:
A restaurant that serves nothing but cereal? It may sound like a scheme from a Seinfeld episode, but the concept is now a reality — a cereality, that is. Diners at the Cereality Cereal Bar and Cafe in Philadelphia can feast on their favorite flakes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. As if ordering a sundae at an ice cream parlor, patrons choose from more than 30 brand-name cereals and a multitude of tempting toppings, including fruit, nuts, cookies, and candy. Pajama-clad “cereologists” prepare the custom blends in a homey kitchen setting.
If they’re serving Cinnamon Toast Crunch, I’m so totally there.
Hat-tip to my wife, who actually reads WebMD on a regular basis — unlike her husband, who’s more likely to be found pouring over page-six celebrity gossip in the online edition of the New York Post.

No, Jess — NOT Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
The correct answer is Fruity Pebbles.
Don’t make me warn you again.

Cereal’s a killer on campus
The breakfast food is king anytime of day or night at CSU-Monterey Bay
By BRENDA MOORE

Rachel Petlowany and her roommates at CSU-Monterey Bay are cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs. And Cocoa Pebbles. And Cap’n Crunch. And Special K. And Raisin Bran. And just about any other cereal they can find.
“It’s so good,” said Petlowany, munching on her third of bowl the day.
“And it’s easy,” said Christina Morley.
“And it’s quick,” said Shalin Cooney.
And apparently it’s common, this love affair between college kids and their cereal. Children 12 and under are by far the biggest consumers of cereal. But anecdotal evidence suggests that growing up doesn’t mean growing out of cravings for a bowl — especially among teenagers and those just out of their teens.
I heard about this place. Now if only I could get a soup and salad bar installed in my house, I’d be all set.:)
