Cereal Killers

It’s another episode of all 3 listener supplied cereals! Danielle joins us again as we try 2 more cereals from Aldi. One is a Millville and one is Fit & Active! Then, we’ll scoot across the pond and dive into a box of Jordan’s Country Crisp with Flame Raisins. What is a Flame Raisin? Beats us…but they’re big!

We really can’t wait to be back together in the studio…this Zoom stuff sucks. But…we carry on! Today we will try some really bland puffed corn from Arrowhead Mills, and 2 varieties of Honey Bunches Of Oats that somehow, we haven’t had yet.

In this episode, we’ll continue our investigation of fake mascots on boxes of Millville cereals. Danielle is back, and her son Spencer pops in to agree with Scotty (yay!). Cereals include fake Honey Smacks, fake Cocoa Puffs and fake Lucky Charms…led by a past-his-prime old wizard.

In yet another wreck of audio from 3 different locations, Scotty, Andrew & Danielle will try a trio of listener supplied cereals from Aldi’s brand, Millville. All 3 have an inferior mascot as compared to the one from the real name brand cereal. But how will the taste compare? Pete the Parrot knows…but he’s not talking…so listen!

Soooo…another episode where Andrew simply didn’t have the time to record. It’s OK. We know he is busy. There really should be a sarcasm emoji. Anyway…thankfully Nate was around to sit in. In this episode, we will take a look at 2 Kashi Cereals, and the Bonus Box (bag) is back as we dive into Malt-O-Meal’s Frosted Flakes! Andrew would have really liked those!!

After Scotty goes through the entire list of every variety of Cheerios ever made, Andrew gets antsy and dumps nearly his entire box of all-new Cinnamon Cheerios all over Donna’s pristine floors. Luckily, there is just enough for one bowl of this 5-bowl reincarnation of its former self.

In another all over the place episode, we’ll somehow get through checking out the listener supplied Cascadian Farm Dark Chocolate Almond Granola, plus Fiber One’s Honey Clusters! Andrew’s house if full of noise and Scotty’s blood pressure is high, as usual.

What a crappy time to have a birthday! Andrew is closing in on 30, and sitting in his parent's basement eating random cereal out of unmarked baggies for no pay. I'm sure Donna is thrilled that this is what her sweet boy has become. In any event, we'll try some Frosted Flakes from Annie's, and Scotty's mom's favorite...Kamut from Nature's Path.

While Andrew is off doing important producer-type things, the show must go on! So, Danielle sits in to co-host and we try some Berry Vanilla Puffs from Cascadian Farm, and Kashi really wants us to Go…so this time we will Wander with some cranberries and blueberries. We’re doing the best we can with audio, and since we all know Danielle is loud on her own, it took a lot of work to even this out!

We never will truly be happy with the sound quality until we are back in the studio together again, but we press on! Bringing back our friend Michele from Survivor to try out the new Spongebob Squarepants Cereal from Kellogg’s, then a re-brand of a classic Kashi Cereal, and we need the Immunity Idol for an international listener submission. Oh, Pico.

We think we have the audio issue solved. Well, maybe. Couldn’t find any new cereals for this episode, so we (well, Scotty) decided that we would check out store brand versions of Lucky Charms. One of them actual scored 5 Bowls! Find out which one in this exciting, yet annoying Andrew is still home episode.

This episode is terrible. As we still try to figure out the best technology to bring you new episodes, you'll see this isn't it. Scotty, Andrew and Danielle all join up on a Zoom call to try another listener supplied LIDL cereal, along with a Kashi By Kids and a new variety of Annie's.

Well…Scotty went and did it. The quality of the last episode with Andrew on the phone was unsatisfactory. So with Scotty the only one in the studio, he gives you an all-dead cereal episode! No trying anything here! To Andrew’s delight, all old commercials for cereals that no longer exist. Cool, huh? If you were a child of the 80s…this one’s for you!

Well, here’s the first train wreck episode as we figure out how best to record while in different locations. Andrew “phones it in” (as usual) and we check out some new Cascadian Farm squares, an unimpressive blueberry thing from Nature’s Path, and some listener supplied Nestle cereal from UAE, that implies it wants us to exercise.

In this final “normal” episode recorded in-studio, Mom will comfort us with her Crispy Cinnamon Rice, and we’ll head back to Poland for some nasty Cini Minis. Then we’ll try some really generic cereals from LIDL…one of them is really good!

Like we said, at this point…all we can try is whatever we have left in the Cereal Sack! So, in this episode we’ll get a really good cereal from Malt-O-Meal, another Quaker Simply Granola (with crispy raisins??) and 2 Polish Nesquik Cereals will jump into the ring, courtesy of our great listeners.

With the exception of that keto crap, this is the first episode without any major brands represented in our 3 boxes of cereal. All listener supplied, we’ll try some no name cookie cereal…a nasty box of Ezekiel…and kosher cereal that reminds Scotty of King Vitaman, which means we’ll hear an old commercial!

While everyone is doing their best to stay away from each other, we continue to eat cereal! Of course, this is pre-recorded, so, we are not actually together.  In this episode, we'll try yet another Great Grains from Post and Mom will save the day with her Safari Cocoa Crunch.  Then a listener submission that we think is called Corn Pleasure. Huh?  Exactly.  

Here to be your stupid cereal escape for 22 minutes.  In this episode we will check out yet another Cheerios variety…Banana Nut!  While Scotty is generally not a fan of banana flavor, he takes this one surprisingly well!  Then, we’ll head to Madagascar and try to catch some Leapin’ Lemurs.  Did you know they taste like chocolate peanut butter?? Plus, Passover is on the way, so we’ll visit Magic Max.  Oh…you’ll see!
