Our friends at Cinnamon Toast Crunch have had a few interesting collabs over the years, and this one is certainly one of them! This CTC is inspired by Hormel's Black Label Bacon. We'll try it so you don't have to! Then we'll travel to France with Andy's parents for Choco Crousti, and back to the farm for some not-so-sweet cinnamon apple cereal.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Nothing's going into your board.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
God damn it, I'm gonna do it again.
Speaker 1 (00:04):
No, No, we don't need to. We don't need to. We
don't know yet. Great, this is serial. I had caught
your error.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Listen, man, it's been a it's been a minute since
we recorded, even though we were on last weekend.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Really, that's crazy. I thought we were here for every.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Episode, so people know that we're recording ahead.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
When I say that it's Andy, don't well the show,
let me put on, let me put on this hat,
they won't know.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
No.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
And then when you say it's they know the listen
is a smooth The show was on you don't get
to tell and the dumb the show was on vacation.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Obviously, we had to record a couple of weeks in advance,
otherwise we'd have been on a break. And we don't
take breaks. Andrew, we're here every Monday.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
I remember once in five years that we took a break.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Yeah, it was literally one episode, but.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Then we placed, didn't we play like the first episode only.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Something something weird. I don't know it was, but once
I don't know. Our entire time, we've only ever taken
like one off.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
I think there's always been something on a Monday, always
for some years.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
I promise you it was one time.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Okay, in sync or the promise.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Yes, I'm sorry, but so same.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Promise, you promise you. That's when in Rome. Oh cool,
the promise. I wonder if they're on tour. No, certainly not. Hey,
welcome to serial Killers. We got some exciting cereal today,
at least one exciting one.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
All right, exciting cereals.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
So I got a direct message from our good friends at.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
General run or something. Why breath because this is exciting
to me.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
I got a direct message from our friend at General
Mills like two weeks ago, like hey, can we send
you something top secret? And I said, yes you can,
and they said okay, but it's embargoed until it is
It's embargoed until July eighth, which is when we are
recording this podcast. So I'm letting you know, behind the
velvet rope curtains everything, we're recording this podcast on Tuesday,
(02:03):
July eighth. So that's why I just I wish we
should have done like an emergency episode and played it
on July eighth. Yeah, we should, but let's not. So
here's the cereal that they said to listening on July. Well,
the problem is the problem is you can't get the
cereal as of today anymore. It's a limit. It was
a limited thing at Walmart dot com. You can only
(02:23):
get it, probably only on July eighth. Because I'm sure
it's good. You could check, but I'm sure it's only
on eBay at this point. Okay, So it's Cinnamento's crunched
bacon flavor. Andrew, what do you mean? Ew?
Speaker 1 (02:35):
And I thing ew. I'm I'm going in cautiously optimistic.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
They had the infuego one and then they had the.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Remember spicy it was?
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Did we try it?
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
We did. There was another one that we didn't get. Oh,
the pizza one. Remember the pizza one and we tried
to get. I was in the lottery and I never
got it.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
But now you have your in.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
It was the Totino's one.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
I love Totino's pizza rolls though, because.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
You know General Mills has a hand in Totino's. That's
why they them up. So this is Hormel. I don't
know this is it says inspired by Hormel black label bacon.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Which means they own it.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
That doesn't necessarily mean that they may just have a partnership,
because I don't believe that Hormel black label bacon is
you know, box tops, whereas all most General Mill's products
are you know, box tops at all.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah, kids, everything, one day, you'll learn one days.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
So we got it's it smells like a snack. It
smells like a snack more than it does cereal. I'm
not to that what like it smells like bacon. Its
if I was.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
You know, if I was like a bag of dog treats, Yeah, I.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Was gonna say. If I was a good host, I
would have got it's bacon. It's bacon, you know, the
for the bag and bacon strips. Does Luna ethos no,
no to not not classy enough for her?
Speaker 1 (03:53):
No, not with those precious paws. Well then now she
has basically balloons.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
She wears balloons.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Do you know? Why don't because when she runs around
she can't help herself around the water.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
I donuts she does.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
And it's sad because you really want to like support her,
but she's just so crazy around.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
The pool, I know. And they tear up their pads blood,
they're like like blood, like this blood everywhere the Angel
Muffin murder scene.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
But now she has balloons that we keep. Actually they're
called paws booties.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Listen. I can understand if that's a problem with the blood.
But the people that walk the dogs around New York
City with the little booties and the raincoat, I want
to punch them in the face.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Well, when it's the summer, I understand, because the pavement
is that hot.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
No, no, this is not for heat. This is just
to not get.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Goo on their feet, like rain goo aka also known
as water.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Yes, all right, Andrew, here we go.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
I actively don't want to act have this though.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
We're using two percent milk today.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
But what if I don't have it?
Speaker 2 (04:51):
You have to?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Is that an option?
Speaker 2 (04:53):
You ate twenty two year old cereal? Andrew? You'll just
eat it? Oh?
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Okay, wow, I have to bring that up.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Am I wrong?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
No, you're you're right?
Speaker 2 (05:00):
So again. This cereal was only available at Walmart dot
Com as a limited release. I don't know if it's
there anymore. You can try, but probably not. They look
exactly like cinnamon toast crunch because they are cinnamon toast
crunch and they are just blasted with bacon flavor. Give
me a sec what I want to move to garbage. Listen, man,
don't be so dramatic.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
It's gonna be bad. I know it, you know it.
I'm just preparing myself.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Well.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
I'm honestly, I almost choked on a vitamin today, so
my gag reflex is already not great.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Okay. So I taste the cinnamon toast crunch and I
taste the bacon kind of separately, which is weird because
I don't know how that works. But eh, it's smoky. Eh,
it's bacony.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
No, that is a dog treat in cinnamon. I am
so sorry, General Mills. I thank you so much for
sending this to us. We really appreciate it. It's not
for me. I'm gonna give this a one one spoon.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Hm.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
That is a dog treat. I can't get.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
I can't. So if you're a big bacon fanny, like bacon,
it's not bread like bacon. Oh it does it doesn't
you You said right away that it smelled like bacon.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
It smelled like bacon dog treats. There's a very big distinction.
Fresh cook bacon on the grill, delicious. Give me that.
This it's got like that peppery bacony scent that everyone
was going for in the mid two thousands or early
twenty tens. You remember when everyone was crazy about bacon.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Yeah, well, here's the thing. This is a savory cereal. Okay,
and generally you're not looking for a savory breakfast cereal. No,
I said so meat and cereal. I don't think we've
I actually kind of we had the other meat cereal.
I'm gonna give it two balls just for what it is,
(06:54):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Again. General, it's a novelty, for sure, a novelty at all.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
The rage because it's a limited release, so people are
going to be clamoring for it.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Here's the thing. What if you told me that I
had fresh bacon and then maybe crush this around it?
Uh huh, Okay, I'll be into it. I'll try it.
It says try it, but don't fry it. Okay, Well
there goes that idea. So just stop listening to what
I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
I always do. I don't even know what you said.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I was saying, this would taste good with actual bacon,
So so fry up some bacon and throw it in
the pan something like that, because I want to actually
enjoy real bacon now because that's not it.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Okay, so great, Yeah, so that's done. Okay bye, I
don't no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
I moved it.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
It's cute. I like it.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
I moved it. I like to be.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Oh it's artificially flavored bacon. It's not even real bacon.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Oh are you shocked by that?
Speaker 2 (07:46):
No? Yeah, there was real bacon bits. Oh really I did?
That would make it great bacon bits.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
What's he doing in there?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I don't know, but guess what Andrew what?
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Serial killers in turn national alway? Is it? From my mind?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
It is, you know, because you always get me that
anytime we bring cereal, and you never do it. This
was carefully curated. Thank you. You're welcome by my mom
and dad.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
From where from they went to the central France?
Speaker 2 (08:11):

Speaker 2 (08:35):
That's good? Do me fair? Throw these out because I
don't want the bacon spoon.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I totally agree with you. So yeah, this is what
my parents bought me. They went to the south of France.
Oh my god, my battery is about the time on
my laptop. It'll last. We're fine, okay. So yeah, that's
the cereal chocolate granola.

percent less sugar in here.

Anyway, this looks like this looks like a mashup of chocolate,
granola and cocoa crispy.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Yes, thank god, I didn't say what I was thinking. Okay, okay, hmm.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Chocolate in different countries just tastes different and not as sweet.
I would call this cocoa rather than chocolate.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Right, that's actually not bad. I don't mind this.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Can you talk while I try to find this? I
can't do two things at once. Mmmmm what m come on? Dude? Speak? God,

Speaker 1 (11:08):
I'm gonna give this three balls in a spoon.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
You didn't even describe it or nothing.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Oh okay, let me, let me go into rich detail
about it. Yeah, it's delicious. The chocolate's really good. I
would actually love to eat a chocolate bar of this.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
They have them.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
It's really good. And the granola just gets flaky enough
mixing with the chocolate. I give this. Yeah, three bowls
in a spoon. That's delicious.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Yeah, so chocolate urry that's not quite as sweet you
would expect. Yeah, it does make chocolate milk, but it's
not sweet chocolate milk. I'm going to give it three balls.
It's pretty good. You'll never see it anywhere unless you
go to France.
Speaker 1 (11:43):

Speaker 2 (13:22):
Oh, you know what's gonna be awesome? Yeah? So I
think I told you a couple of weeks ago that
I started the iHeart a Media Cereal sampling station. Yes, so,
I brought those cereal dispensers up front. There's four of them,
and I fill them almost daily because people are just
they're going, it's amazing. So I'm gonna put the cinnamon
Toad's crunch bacon in there. They're gonna think it cinnamon
(13:44):
Toad's crunch and go everything, and they're gonna vomit, so destinedly.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Your master planet work.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
I'm gonna set up a hidden camera camera and everything. Yeah,
we're gonna get views.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
I would. You're gonna ruin it because no one's ever
gonna go why, because they're gonna be like, what the
hell they put dog treats in the cereal dispenser?
Speaker 2 (14:04):
No, they know it's all right. Look, I think Greg
t was still here. They never know what they're getting
over there.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
It's all secret, Okay, I mean honestly, the trust that
they have right got to a random cereal dispenser like
this is like a holiday inn. Yeah, I would never right,
there's all kinds of weird to do it, right, there's
like that the Arctic cap'n crunching there right now with
blue and white pieces going.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Yeah it's half gone already. Wow, it's crazy. And plus
it expired. Don't tell anyone.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
I mean, I guess they know now.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Yeah, nobody listens to this crap. Cascadian Farm organic, no
sugar added. Send them an apple cereal, believe it or not.
We never did this before. This is not this is
not new. We never did it. I checked, it's not
on our thing. Okay, Newman, make sure this is on
our thing.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
There was another one when I was with my mom
in Shopright that we didn't and I checked what we
never did shop Right frosted flakes, and.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
You didn't buy it because so you saw it in
the aisle, you checked it on the website, and you
walked away from it. Yeah, that's cool.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Because in my head I thought I would bring it in,
and I knew if I brought it in, you'd be like,
we did it, silly, we did it, and then you'd
google it and be like, I still think Newman's wrong.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
That's the one with like the wolf on the front
of it, or it's a polar bear. Polar Bear.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Yeah, you don't know your cereals.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Well you know what, you didn't buy it, so I'll
buy it next time. Well, you know, now that my
daughter is an employee, I have an inside track, an
inside track. M Now I get secret Squirrel Cooper.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
She's gonna get fired in the next week, next episode.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
It's gonna be like, why would you say that?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Because I could just Cooper in the quest to get
you new cereals is gonna like go into the back
as a new palette is delivered and be like, I
have to take this from my dad.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
No, she's a wonderful worker. She really is very conscientious, conscient,
she encious. So this is apple cinnamon m Cascadian Farm,
no sugar added mm, which means sweetened with apple stuff.
It's got a nice apple cinnamon smell, but it's just
(15:59):
not it needs to be sweetened. Yeah, it needs sugar added.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Yeah, huh. You aftertaste kind of tastes like a donut though.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
You know what I would want to put on this
cinnamon sugar, yes, right, yes, absolutely, that would make it delicious.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
The aftertaste tastes like an apple cider donut, like that
you get in the fall. And I enjoy that, Like
I don't like the taste at first, but then the
aftertaste I really do enjoy. And how often do you
enjoy the aftertastes Very rarely. So for that alone, I'm
going to give it three balls.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Okay. You know I like it because I want to
think apple pie, you know, and I just eat the
insides of the apple pie. Hell, and that's what I
was hoping that taste success. That's right. I will also
give it three balls. I'm not just copying.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
I just think there is no reason he needs to
be moving that much for a copy for a.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Dentist's Italian very handsy, you know, Yes, so yeah I
do that. Also, yeah, I'll move all around doing things commercially.

almost six years, which is insane. What we need to
do like crazy Ada used to be.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Okay, do you show all the boxes? I do.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
Said I did. But they want us to like knock
them down. Yeah. No, I'm not rebuilding all these boxes.
I've flattened them all and there's nothing in them, so
they'll all fall. No, it needs to be no basically,
what these things do when they've knocked over the boxes.
They're donated boxes, they're full of cereal, and then they
give them to a charity. This is impossible. They won't
stand because they're not full.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Maybe we could build like a pyramid.

Speaker 1 (00:04):
No, No, we don't need to. We don't need to. We
don't know yet. Great, this is serial. I had caught
your error.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Listen, man, it's been a it's been a minute since
we recorded, even though we were on last weekend.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Really, that's crazy. I thought we were here for every.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Episode, so people know that we're recording ahead.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
When I say that it's Andy, don't well the show,
let me put on, let me put on this hat,
they won't know.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
No.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
And then when you say it's they know the listen
is a smooth The show was on you don't get
to tell and the dumb the show was on vacation.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Obviously, we had to record a couple of weeks in advance,
otherwise we'd have been on a break. And we don't
take breaks. Andrew, we're here every Monday.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
I remember once in five years that we took a break.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Yeah, it was literally one episode, but.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Then we placed, didn't we play like the first episode only.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Something something weird. I don't know it was, but once
I don't know. Our entire time, we've only ever taken
like one off.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
I think there's always been something on a Monday, always
for some years.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
I promise you it was one time.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Okay, in sync or the promise.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Yes, I'm sorry, but so same.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Promise, you promise you. That's when in Rome. Oh cool,
the promise. I wonder if they're on tour. No, certainly not. Hey,
welcome to serial Killers. We got some exciting cereal today,
at least one exciting one.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
All right, exciting cereals.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
So I got a direct message from our good friends at.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
General run or something. Why breath because this is exciting
to me.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
I got a direct message from our friend at General
Mills like two weeks ago, like hey, can we send
you something top secret? And I said, yes you can,
and they said okay, but it's embargoed until it is
It's embargoed until July eighth, which is when we are
recording this podcast. So I'm letting you know, behind the
velvet rope curtains everything, we're recording this podcast on Tuesday,
(02:03):
July eighth. So that's why I just I wish we
should have done like an emergency episode and played it
on July eighth. Yeah, we should, but let's not. So
here's the cereal that they said to listening on July. Well,
the problem is the problem is you can't get the
cereal as of today anymore. It's a limit. It was
a limited thing at Walmart dot com. You can only
(02:23):
get it, probably only on July eighth. Because I'm sure
it's good. You could check, but I'm sure it's only
on eBay at this point. Okay, So it's Cinnamento's crunched
bacon flavor. Andrew, what do you mean? Ew?
Speaker 1 (02:35):
And I thing ew. I'm I'm going in cautiously optimistic.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
They had the infuego one and then they had the.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Remember spicy it was?
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Did we try it?
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
We did. There was another one that we didn't get. Oh,
the pizza one. Remember the pizza one and we tried
to get. I was in the lottery and I never
got it.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
But now you have your in.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
It was the Totino's one.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
I love Totino's pizza rolls though, because.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
You know General Mills has a hand in Totino's. That's
why they them up. So this is Hormel. I don't
know this is it says inspired by Hormel black label bacon.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Which means they own it.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
That doesn't necessarily mean that they may just have a partnership,
because I don't believe that Hormel black label bacon is
you know, box tops, whereas all most General Mill's products
are you know, box tops at all.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah, kids, everything, one day, you'll learn one days.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
So we got it's it smells like a snack. It
smells like a snack more than it does cereal. I'm
not to that what like it smells like bacon. Its
if I was.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
You know, if I was like a bag of dog treats, Yeah, I.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Was gonna say. If I was a good host, I
would have got it's bacon. It's bacon, you know, the
for the bag and bacon strips. Does Luna ethos no,
no to not not classy enough for her?
Speaker 1 (03:53):
No, not with those precious paws. Well then now she
has basically balloons.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
She wears balloons.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Do you know? Why don't because when she runs around
she can't help herself around the water.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
I donuts she does.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
And it's sad because you really want to like support her,
but she's just so crazy around.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
The pool, I know. And they tear up their pads blood,
they're like like blood, like this blood everywhere the Angel
Muffin murder scene.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
But now she has balloons that we keep. Actually they're
called paws booties.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Listen. I can understand if that's a problem with the blood.
But the people that walk the dogs around New York
City with the little booties and the raincoat, I want
to punch them in the face.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Well, when it's the summer, I understand, because the pavement
is that hot.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
No, no, this is not for heat. This is just
to not get.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Goo on their feet, like rain goo aka also known
as water.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Yes, all right, Andrew, here we go.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
I actively don't want to act have this though.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
We're using two percent milk today.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
But what if I don't have it?
Speaker 2 (04:51):
You have to?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Is that an option?
Speaker 2 (04:53):
You ate twenty two year old cereal? Andrew? You'll just
eat it? Oh?
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Okay, wow, I have to bring that up.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Am I wrong?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
No, you're you're right?
Speaker 2 (05:00):
So again. This cereal was only available at Walmart dot
Com as a limited release. I don't know if it's
there anymore. You can try, but probably not. They look
exactly like cinnamon toast crunch because they are cinnamon toast
crunch and they are just blasted with bacon flavor. Give
me a sec what I want to move to garbage. Listen, man,
don't be so dramatic.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
It's gonna be bad. I know it, you know it.
I'm just preparing myself.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Well.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
I'm honestly, I almost choked on a vitamin today, so
my gag reflex is already not great.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Okay. So I taste the cinnamon toast crunch and I
taste the bacon kind of separately, which is weird because
I don't know how that works. But eh, it's smoky. Eh,
it's bacony.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
No, that is a dog treat in cinnamon. I am
so sorry, General Mills. I thank you so much for
sending this to us. We really appreciate it. It's not
for me. I'm gonna give this a one one spoon.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Hm.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
That is a dog treat. I can't get.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
I can't. So if you're a big bacon fanny, like bacon,
it's not bread like bacon. Oh it does it doesn't
you You said right away that it smelled like bacon.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
It smelled like bacon dog treats. There's a very big distinction.
Fresh cook bacon on the grill, delicious. Give me that.
This it's got like that peppery bacony scent that everyone
was going for in the mid two thousands or early
twenty tens. You remember when everyone was crazy about bacon.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Yeah, well, here's the thing. This is a savory cereal. Okay,
and generally you're not looking for a savory breakfast cereal. No,
I said so meat and cereal. I don't think we've
I actually kind of we had the other meat cereal.
I'm gonna give it two balls just for what it is,
(06:54):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Again. General, it's a novelty, for sure, a novelty at all.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
The rage because it's a limited release, so people are
going to be clamoring for it.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Here's the thing. What if you told me that I
had fresh bacon and then maybe crush this around it?
Uh huh, Okay, I'll be into it. I'll try it.
It says try it, but don't fry it. Okay, Well
there goes that idea. So just stop listening to what
I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
I always do. I don't even know what you said.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I was saying, this would taste good with actual bacon,
So so fry up some bacon and throw it in
the pan something like that, because I want to actually
enjoy real bacon now because that's not it.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Okay, so great, Yeah, so that's done. Okay bye, I
don't no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
I moved it.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
It's cute. I like it.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
I moved it. I like to be.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Oh it's artificially flavored bacon. It's not even real bacon.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Oh are you shocked by that?
Speaker 2 (07:46):
No? Yeah, there was real bacon bits. Oh really I did?
That would make it great bacon bits.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
What's he doing in there?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I don't know, but guess what Andrew what?
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Serial killers in turn national alway? Is it? From my mind?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
It is, you know, because you always get me that
anytime we bring cereal, and you never do it. This
was carefully curated. Thank you. You're welcome by my mom
and dad.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
From where from they went to the central France?
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Oh I thought you said Portugal.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
No, Gandhi went to Portugal.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
So oh that's a French cow. We horse we we

Speaker 1 (08:21):
Yes, it's horse, chocolate meat, cereal, porsy, chocolate bites, pulaine. Yeah,
chocolate crusties. It's lebon go did chacola basically just chocolate
granola cereal.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
That's good? Do me fair? Throw these out because I
don't want the bacon spoon.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I totally agree with you. So yeah, this is what
my parents bought me. They went to the south of France.
Oh my god, my battery is about the time on
my laptop. It'll last. We're fine, okay. So yeah, that's
the cereal chocolate granola.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
They also have Poulaine chocolate bars and chocolate powder.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Guess what?
Speaker 1 (09:00):
And it spread?
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Guess what? There is negative thirty. That means it's thirty
percent less sugar in here.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Okay, d o lingo then you're no street.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
So?
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Anyway, this looks like this looks like a mashup of chocolate,
granola and cocoa crispy.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Yes, thank god, I didn't say what I was thinking. Okay, okay, hmm.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Chocolate in different countries just tastes different and not as sweet.
I would call this cocoa rather than chocolate.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Right, that's actually not bad. I don't mind this.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Can you talk while I try to find this? I
can't do two things at once. Mmmmm what m come on? Dude? Speak? God,
you're such a dick Andrew. Nobody wants to hear that.
There it is. I knew it was Pajama Party. Okay, yeah, Oh,
(11:05):

Speaker 1 (11:08):
I'm gonna give this three balls in a spoon.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
You didn't even describe it or nothing.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Oh okay, let me, let me go into rich detail
about it. Yeah, it's delicious. The chocolate's really good. I
would actually love to eat a chocolate bar of this.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
They have them.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
It's really good. And the granola just gets flaky enough
mixing with the chocolate. I give this. Yeah, three bowls
in a spoon. That's delicious.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Yeah, so chocolate urry that's not quite as sweet you
would expect. Yeah, it does make chocolate milk, but it's
not sweet chocolate milk. I'm going to give it three balls.
It's pretty good. You'll never see it anywhere unless you
go to France.
Speaker 1 (11:43):

You would fall and them be like, I'm bleeding.
Speaker 2 (13:05):

Speaker 1 (13:11):
Maybe they want you to because it's part of a
complete breakfast. You can pour oom petite dey wearneke if
Cristille le PAPIs.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Oh, you know what's gonna be awesome? Yeah? So I
think I told you a couple of weeks ago that
I started the iHeart a Media Cereal sampling station. Yes, so,
I brought those cereal dispensers up front. There's four of them,
and I fill them almost daily because people are just
they're going, it's amazing. So I'm gonna put the cinnamon
Toad's crunch bacon in there. They're gonna think it cinnamon
(13:44):
Toad's crunch and go everything, and they're gonna vomit, so destinedly.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Your master planet work.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
I'm gonna set up a hidden camera camera and everything. Yeah,
we're gonna get views.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
I would. You're gonna ruin it because no one's ever
gonna go why, because they're gonna be like, what the
hell they put dog treats in the cereal dispenser?
Speaker 2 (14:04):
No, they know it's all right. Look, I think Greg
t was still here. They never know what they're getting
over there.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
It's all secret, Okay, I mean honestly, the trust that
they have right got to a random cereal dispenser like
this is like a holiday inn. Yeah, I would never right,
there's all kinds of weird to do it, right, there's
like that the Arctic cap'n crunching there right now with
blue and white pieces going.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Yeah it's half gone already. Wow, it's crazy. And plus
it expired. Don't tell anyone.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
I mean, I guess they know now.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Yeah, nobody listens to this crap. Cascadian Farm organic, no
sugar added. Send them an apple cereal, believe it or not.
We never did this before. This is not this is
not new. We never did it. I checked, it's not
on our thing. Okay, Newman, make sure this is on
our thing.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
There was another one when I was with my mom
in Shopright that we didn't and I checked what we
never did shop Right frosted flakes, and.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
You didn't buy it because so you saw it in
the aisle, you checked it on the website, and you
walked away from it. Yeah, that's cool.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Because in my head I thought I would bring it in,
and I knew if I brought it in, you'd be like,
we did it, silly, we did it, and then you'd
google it and be like, I still think Newman's wrong.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
That's the one with like the wolf on the front
of it, or it's a polar bear. Polar Bear.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Yeah, you don't know your cereals.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Well you know what, you didn't buy it, so I'll
buy it next time. Well, you know, now that my
daughter is an employee, I have an inside track, an
inside track. M Now I get secret Squirrel Cooper.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
She's gonna get fired in the next week, next episode.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
It's gonna be like, why would you say that?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Because I could just Cooper in the quest to get
you new cereals is gonna like go into the back
as a new palette is delivered and be like, I
have to take this from my dad.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
No, she's a wonderful worker. She really is very conscientious, conscient,
she encious. So this is apple cinnamon m Cascadian Farm,
no sugar added mm, which means sweetened with apple stuff.
It's got a nice apple cinnamon smell, but it's just
(15:59):
not it needs to be sweetened. Yeah, it needs sugar added.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Yeah, huh. You aftertaste kind of tastes like a donut though.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
You know what I would want to put on this
cinnamon sugar, yes, right, yes, absolutely, that would make it delicious.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
The aftertaste tastes like an apple cider donut, like that
you get in the fall. And I enjoy that, Like
I don't like the taste at first, but then the
aftertaste I really do enjoy. And how often do you
enjoy the aftertastes Very rarely. So for that alone, I'm
going to give it three balls.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Okay. You know I like it because I want to
think apple pie, you know, and I just eat the
insides of the apple pie. Hell, and that's what I
was hoping that taste success. That's right. I will also
give it three balls. I'm not just copying.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
I just think there is no reason he needs to
be moving that much for a copy for a.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Dentist's Italian very handsy, you know, Yes, so yeah I
do that. Also, yeah, I'll move all around doing things commercially.

dot com. You can see all the over Are we
at twelve hundred at this point, I think we are
over twelve hundred cereals that we've tried in the last
(18:13):
almost six years, which is insane. What we need to
do like crazy Ada used to be.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Okay, do you show all the boxes? I do.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
There's about three hundred here at about six hundred in
the closet.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
Did you see what the Guinness Book of World Records people.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
Said I did. But they want us to like knock
them down. Yeah. No, I'm not rebuilding all these boxes.
I've flattened them all and there's nothing in them, so
they'll all fall. No, it needs to be no basically,
what these things do when they've knocked over the boxes.
They're donated boxes, they're full of cereal, and then they
give them to a charity. This is impossible. They won't
stand because they're not full.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Maybe we could build like a pyramid.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Maybe not until we see you on the next episode.
Say clink, Andrew, clink, I mean crunch. You didn't even
know you just said it. I could have said anything. Yeah,
