but post said they were sending them to us, but
we hadn't received them yet and we needed to record
an episode, so I did buy it. That episode got postponed.
So you know, now I have three boxes, and I'll
tell you why because here's the one that I bought

(02:25):

already had it. I did not taste it, but that's
why this is opening, okay, so interned down. Yeah, yes,

I noticed you hadn't tried yet, so I got you this.
He also got us the Wednesday cereal that we did
last week, but that's okay. It wasn't posted yet, so
he didn't know.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
Okay, all right, internedan, So sorry, we didn't like that one,
but thank you for thinking of us.

Speaker 2 (02:46):

funny when I was in the barbershop.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
It was mentioned specifically because they.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Brought I don't understand this whole story.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
So I was in the barber shop getting my hair
done before I was going on this trip, and somebody
brought in a whole, like Costco size box of the
Three Wish of cereal. Yes, So they got to talking.
My barber was talking to me and I was like, Oh,
do you get that cereal for free? And the guy
was like, oh yeah, my wife is like the head
of marketing for Three Wishes. And I was like, oh, well,

(03:30):

Speaker 2 (03:31):
We do.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
I've had that cereal before because I do a cereal podcast.
They're like, oh, a cereal podcast. Oh is it that
one with the guys from Z one hundred and I
was like, that's me. They were like no way, wow, yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
That's pretty cool. Do you remember trying that cereal?

Speaker 1 (03:47):
I liked one of them. Yeah, I specifically remember saying
that this is the best of the healthy alternative cereals.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
We have a love hate with them. Yeah, we love some,
we hate others.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yeah, So I really hope they keep growing. They have
the new one with marshmallows.

Speaker 2 (04:01):
Cool, so marshmallows. Yeah, they have a marshmallow one coming,
kind of like a fake lucky charm.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
Yes, they're going to send it to us.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
All right, very good. So listen, here's my problem with
the Farmland Fresh Dairyes, fridge people around here just think
it's a free for all. Yeah, and I have been
you know, we're recording this episode right before the big
show is going on vacation. Yeah, so I've been rationing
the Farmland Fresh Dairies milk all week because I knew
we had to record this week. I came in this
morning and here's what's left of our two percent reduced

(04:26):
fat milk. There's very little in the jug here.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
So let that be a testament to how good the
milk is though, and how much we drink here.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
People keep swiping it exactly.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
Farmland Fresh Daies, thank you so much for sending us
the milk. But at the same time, people stop stealing
our Farmland Fresh Dairyes, milk, yes, please please. We had
chocolate milk in there too.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
Unfortunately, we're just gonna have to use a splash in
each coup.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
You know, I hate that word when it comes to milk.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
Hold on, splash of two percent. Splash of two percent.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
You don't have to say it. I knew what you
were doing.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
Yeh, take us foon. I don't want to touch it.
Ink you like Monifa?

Speaker 1 (05:01):
I know that one. No no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Do you really want to touch it?

Speaker 1 (05:06):
Oh? No, I got the wrong one.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
Ready, here we go. It's honey bunches of oats. Salted caramel. Hmmm,
I wouldn't. That was a little like it was a lot.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
I don't like salt of caramel, really, I don't.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
I don't taste of salt. Was that just a figure
of speech.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
I know this is gonna sound crazy, but it's a
childhood thing. I had a salted caramel things, but they
put way too much salt on it, and so I've
always associated it with like a salt brick, and I
hate it, like sweet salty brick, like a horse salt lick.
No disgusting. But this is the right amount of salt.
It's just a touch, just like or splash of salt,

(05:45):
and the caramel really comes through and it's delicious.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
I do taste the caramel flavor. I also wish that
it was a little bit sweeter. M m so because
of that three balls in a spoon.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
I give it four balls in a spoon.

Speaker 2 (05:57):
It's got the classic honey bunches of oats, taste, the clusters,
the flakes, with the hint of caramel paramel. However you
like to say it. I don't really taste the salt.
I just wish it was a little bit more sweet.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
I really like it. It's perfectly sweet for me. It's
not too much, it's not overdoing it. I give it
four balls in a spoon. Okay, yeah, that's like a dessert.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
Well, I mean, for the most part, ninety five percent
of the cereals we eat are like desserts. Yeah, just
saying yeah, like this next one.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
Yeah, you are the.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
Biggest, seriously, the biggest. Speaking of marshmallows. So, my friend
Mara Big listener of the show Loves It lives in
Kansas City, Kansas loves Hid Interesting went to the Price Chopper,
Oh love that, and sent me a picture and showed
me this. There was a whole aisle of Always Save cereals.

Speaker 1 (06:47):
Oh we've never had any of these.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
Now here's I had a crazy flashback when I saw this,
because when I was just a young lad the Wall
Bounds Supermarket, which is out of business for years now,
their store brand was all Way Save. Okay. I did
some investigating, and Always Save came out in nineteen eighty four,
about the time I was a young lad. So you
don't have you calling yourself that. So stores at the

(07:10):
time were using always Save as their store brand. Okay,
So I guess that's what Price Chopper is doing, and
maybe some other stores across this great country of ours.
But here we go always right, he's gonna tell monologues, okay.
So anyway I Always Save is the store brand or
the generic if you will? All right? And this is
a giant, massive box of marshmallow glitters and recipe on side.

(07:34):
Look at that.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
What Thank you so much Meyer for sending us these.
I ever meet you. I'm sure you're gonna be a
wonderful person.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
You've met her? I think, Oh I have yeah.

Speaker 3 (07:42):
Oh, hold, I gotta shake it, dude, shake I can wait.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
Well, you know people can watch me shake my box.
If one of these days some of these things go
up on YouTube. Oh they get a tight seal, I
tell you. Usually the generics are just like we can.
I'm gonna rip it. I know it.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
Don't you get cereal on me? Right now?

Speaker 2 (08:11):
There I go.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
Remember the one time that you spit milk out on me?

Speaker 2 (08:13):
I do? Wasn't it fun?

Speaker 1 (08:14):
That was? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (08:15):
Yeah, Farmland Fresh Air's milk is great anywhere on you
in a cup, in a bowl.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
Yay. Marshmallow glitters.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
The marshmallows are different than your lucky charms. They're interesting,
got stars okay, and weird looking horseshoe type things. Could
they don't list the shapes like no, no, no no, not
on generics andrew.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
Crowns, triangles and circles. Does it say that tied I
red balloons.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
Who would the generic mascot be for marshmallow glitters? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (08:46):
I feel like it's like a cow.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
I think it would be Lucy the Leprechaun.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
Oh yeah, Lucy. But Lucy is like a foul mouth
like British person like, Oi, you want me cereal? No
you don't.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
That's Australian in it? No Oi Oi? Yeah, vegem everything.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
Okay, Well then okay, she's Australian.

Speaker 2 (09:02):
Then do you think it's a vegemite cereal?

Speaker 1 (09:04):
Oh? Please God? No, all right, Australian would be like, Hi,
it's different.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
So the cereal the cereal pieces are just pretty much
all diamonds or squares, I guess, depending on how you
hold it. All right, let's just rush right through it. Good. Yeah,
it doesn't taste quite like lucky charms.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
Okay, So it tastes like cheerios with marshmallows. Yeah, I
could see that it's ceerials with marshmallows, which I actually
really like. That's that's a new interesting taste we haven't
had yet. It is.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
It's not quite as sweet as your lucky charms. It's
a good source of eleven vitarins and mental vitaarins and vitamins,
vitamins and minerals. I'm ready to go, Andrew Glitters. I'm
giving it four bowls in a spoon. I like it.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
I give it four bowls.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
The pieces themselves, like the cereal the cereal pieces. Yeah,
they're not coated with like sugar like a Lucky Charms pieces.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
The good they're not frosted Lucky Charms. They're just regular
Marshmallow literaist.

They're regular regular marsham March.

That's like literally the only story I have from a
big lots Now. I went there, and I don't know
how it was like impossible, Like I don't know where
that toilet paper came from Narnia, who Hogwarts wherever? But
that was. There is no shot that I bought that
much toilet paper that it lasted me a year and
a half.

around like I saw him today. It's like, hey, Scott,
how you doing.

Speaker 2 (13:58):
Huh?

Speaker 1 (13:59):

Speaker 2 (14:05):
Well, with no farm milk, we can't do the podcast.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
You were correct?

Speaker 2 (14:09):
All right, here we go. I hope these blueberries are
not all right? M not quite what you expected. I
don't taste a vanilla, really, I do taste of blueberries.
If you get one, no sugar added. It's sweetened with fruit.

Speaker 1 (14:28):
Yeah, grain tastes like a hand lotion, a little bit
of coconut that you would get from bath and body works.

Speaker 2 (14:34):
You eat that stuff.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
No, I'm saying it smells and tastes like that.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
Well, you eat that stuff.

Speaker 1 (14:39):
I'm saying it smells like it, and I assume that's
what tastes like. Okay, not eating an sanitizer, dry.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
Blueberries, coconut oil, sea salt, vitamini. Yeah, I mean it's
look it's good.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
I don't think so.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
This might be something to throw on top of yogwit.

Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yeah. Maybe Nate would like it for his Icelandic yogurt. Yeah,
let me tell you something. I don't know what they're
doing with those Icelandic cow I do not like that yogurt.
I actively dislike it. It is too strong. I am
not a fan.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
Maybe should try the Farmland Fresh Dairyes, yogurt.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
I would love to try to pick it up for you.
We can put some of this on top of it. Yes,
I would love that.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
There's a store right on my house that has it.
I'm gonna get it for that.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
It's so funny. Every time my mom is in the
grocery store now she takes a picture and it's like.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
It's Calfey's Yeah, that's right. Next time you're staring at
the milk case, look for the face. Yeah. Yeah, anyway,
would you give that because I'm just gonna give it
three ball spoon and a spoon.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
It's really let me down. It feels depressing to me.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
They are creating a wave of cascading change. Though with
the bees and the butterflies.

Speaker 1 (15:37):

was missing.
