Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay, what do you mean Watch the snap you just
snapped it? Yeah, to start the recording. You did that
cool snap live from the Farmland Fresh Dairy studios. This
is serial Killers.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
This is serial Killers. I'm Scotty B.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
And I'm Andrew.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
How are you doing there, buddy?
Speaker 1 (00:16):
You know, I'm good.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
How are you? You seem very stressed today.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
You know, just running around, lots to do, lots to do.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Well. Welcome to Serial Killers. This is the podcast. It's
the premiere serial podcast, the premiere. It is the PM.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
I was spelling it British with no ear in the end,
Premiere Premiere. Are we doing premiere pr with the e
at the end? It's the premiere breakfast program, the premiere. Yeah, yeah,
you know, I'm very glad you said that. Wow, It's
not like I saw what was on your phone or
what we teased in the last episode where we said
we would talk about this English breakfast cereal.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
You don't remember these things.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
I do remember these things. I was there, I lived it. Oh,
serial Killers in turn National.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
So this is really cool, slash, exciting, slash, weird slash.
I have no idea what's about to happen? Okay, so
a couple of weeks ago, I got a d M
from calf Crunch. All right, it says, hello mate, M
eight you like what he does?
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Oh fine, that'sine.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
We're calf Crunch and we created a cereal that we
think you might be interested in. It's the world's first
full English breakfast cereal. Let us know if you want
to try it? Yes, we do.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Yeah, so he.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Sent us a box, and I think the most interesting
thing is, first of all, it came in a panda
envelope all way from England. No, it's a little crushed,
but like in the description in the customs form, it
literally says cereal sweet and savory blend of multi grain hoops.
Oh fun So I mean that's a full description of
what it actually was.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Multi grain hoops.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Yeah. Okay, so here we go, Andrew without any further
edu calf Crunch. The box is all mangled and smashed.
I love the name Mother London. Yeah right, that's funny.
So I'm guessing I don't know who this dude is
modeled after. Maybe it's the guy who created the cereal.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
It kind of looks like Super Mario maybe more have
a beard, though Mario doesn't have a full beard. He
only has the mustache.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Madrio full of fry up full of fry fry up flavor,
or you know that it's international, it's got the U.
What can you do another? I can't. I was only
able to do it that one time. Just try it
one more time. No, because it'll be bad.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
It's on me.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yes, you do it better. And on the back. Look,
you can cut out a hard hat and a hammer
and you know what that's.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Called, uh, the the thing that make sure it's balanced.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
That's a level level or that's a level. No, that's
a level level, just a level. If it was a
level or it would actually level things for you. Yeah,
it's just a level, idiot. Look, there's your forklift driver card.
I don't think that's balance. This is to certify that
Andrew has successfully completed forklift driver training.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
If I steal a forklift, I'll make sure to use
that as evidence. Officer, you can't arrest me. Why here's
my forkliff? Like?
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Since okay, so on the little flappir it'sys caught grease.
Here it says yes geezer say good morning to the
world's Does gezer mean something different over there? Because here
it just means like old idiot, right the yes geezer,
say good morning to the world's first fry up flavored
breakfast cereal.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
You don't have to say it like that.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
All the salty save vory goodness of a greasy spoon
in one boxy. I don't know if this is a
goof or not. Is this a goof?
Speaker 1 (03:25):
It's informal British it means just a man, so it's
just saying.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Hey man, Okay, it's according to this, It's got egg, bacon, sausage, toast, tomato,
and mushroom.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Oh wait, what does it say eats? You could tell
this this has a good right, yeah, because energy fat saturates,
salts and sugars. Oh my god, my god, it's nice
and has one hundred percent of each. All right, Well,
also it does three hundred and ninety four calories.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
I'm actually kind of concern because I don't know.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
It looks like cheerios with marshmallows.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Total fat. There's not that set.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
I don't know, bro, I don't think that this is savory.
I think it's just sweet. I think it's just cheerios
with marshmallows.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
It comes in an interesting vacuum packed kind of bag. Yeah,
this is not I can't imagine this is actually on
the market there. I do believe that this is just
a novelty cereal. I don't think I've ever cut a
bag home with scissors, but I just don't. It's like
a vacuum sealed bag.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Caught it smell it.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
It smells like absolutely nothing.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Yeah, it's cheerio. Oh, I don't know. I'm a little
concerned that it has like checks mixed dust on it.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Look, you got some eggs right there. Don't hold on
like this looks obscene. Almost this egg looks obscene.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Honestly, they do eggs right though. Yeah, they make it
actually look like an egg.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
All right, let's go back to the farm Land Fresh Dairyes,
fridge a today. We are using two reduced fat milk.
We're gonna use the quart size container here, So it's
not gonna be good for a picture later because it's
gonna be some missing. But I'll just hold my hand over.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
I'm sure the team at Farmland will be totally fine. Well,
I'm sure they'll be fine with it, but it won't
be very aesthetic for our pictures. Now, God, your daughter
won't stop saying that This isn't good. It's not gonna
be coquette.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
That's a new one. What does that mean?
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Even on a bull chat one day?
Speaker 2 (05:20):
All right, here we go. You want some more milk
or you're good? Try to get try to get as
many pieces. They look like multi grain cheerios with rando.
I got a red piece and an egg piece. Let's see. Look.
I told the dude that we would be brutally honest,
and he said, yes, we love brutal honesty. I taste
(05:43):
some sort of meat. Maybe the hoops are not bad.
The hoops are good, little sweet. That egg, bro, there's
like fart. Got an egg? How'd they do that? It's
really interesting and fun. I'm gonna tell you that much.
(06:07):
The red thing I think is supposed to be a sausage.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
It's like a burst of saltiness.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Right. Well, here's some toaster something.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
I cannot eat another bite of this. I am so sorry.
Ten out of ten for the creativity. I'll give it
that eat that act for me. I I'm begging you.
I will not just eat that one piece, the red thing,
and it was so solid. Just eat that, please, Just
I'm gonna throw up.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Just need to eat the egg I want you to
just eat just the egg, right, it tastes like a
egg so weird.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Look, it's just very salty.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
I'm going to give it two balls and a spoon.
I think it's decent. It's an interesting concept. We don't
have the full like savory thing here.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Yeah, and there's a reason they give it a bowl.
I just listen the creativity again. Ten out of ten.
You actually made the eggs taste like eggs. You actually
made the sausage super salty and like coated with something
like it. Yeah, it's there. It's just not for me
in any way, shape or form.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
The hoops are good. If it was just a hoop cereal,
it'd be like a sweet multi graine cheerios.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I thought it was gonna be a gag gift. I
think it was gag, yes, but gag. But like I
thought it was gonna be like, oh, the marshmallows are
just marshmallows. No, you actually stuffed them with things that
are savory.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
It's just it's flavored. Like my stomach hurts a little
bit now, but it was.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
It was okay, you know what you did the thing,
so good job. Yes, thank you so much for sending
them to us. You know, a list like to have
people in the UK who listen and send us things
like that's wild. So even if I'm not the biggest
fan of this, it still is awesome that you sent
it to us.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
We did pretty okay in the UK, those last speaker
things that we got, we went up like twelve listens
in the UK.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Maybe he told all his friends to listen. Yeah, it's
gonna go.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Up this, don'tia.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
I think it's just Yorkshire Shia. Yes, well Notingham I had.
I had a soccer coach at camp who was from Manchester.
Oh I remember that fun. Yeah. He told us about
all the lifts and the crisps and the chips and everything. Great,
all the all those things. I want to I really
want to go over there, same I do. I've never been,
uh and I want to go. Okay, it's a great story.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
But we'll get you there.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
You get a long weekend there, right, Yeah, how far
is it? It's like a five hour flight.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Yeah, it's not bad at all.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Now we move on. Thank you to our friends at
General Mills for sending us the big box of new stuff.
This is the only one of the box that I
didn't buy. So let's check out the new Lucky Charms
berry swirl. Okay, new berry marshmallows.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
I'm into it.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
And this box is incredibly bilingual. Everything that it says
in English, it also says in Spanish. I think it's
very interesting.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
What about French, No, they don't do much French.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
So the Lucky Charms pieces in this particular cereal are
are fruit flavored, They're colored.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
They're not like the regular old I'm excited. It's like
Tricks with marshmallows.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Perhaps berry marshmallows.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
I get that right, because Tricks is also made by General.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Very good Mauls. Do you know what Malvo Visco is?
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Of course?
Speaker 2 (09:12):
What is it? The mal marshmallow marshmallow? Yeah, of course,
and bios must be berries. Yeah, sweetened corn cereal with
marshmallows cereal day.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
I would love it if we could open up. That'd
be cool.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
Shtti right now, and I'm not going to be happy. No,
I think I have spleen issues. Spleen like I think
(09:46):
I actually need to go to the doctor.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Well, these are also magically delicious cool save a football chat.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
It smells fruity.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Tricks is that's tricks?
Speaker 2 (09:59):
So you think they're just different shaped tricks with marshmallows. Yes,
that is one hundred percent with this. So where's the
Where does the berry come in through the tricks?
Speaker 1 (10:08):
I don't know, Andy.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Sometimes these fruit flavored cereals with the added marshmallows are
just too much, too much like tricks with marshmallows. Too much.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Yeah, it's like differing tastes, but like too much. And
you got the crunchiness and the sweetness from the piece,
and then you got like an overly sweet marshmallow. It's
just it does the most. I got like some sausage
on that spoon.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
You better lick that spoon clean, all right, No, I
just mean so you don't get the taste. Yeah, Berry
swore Lucky Charms from our friends at General Mills. Ready
there very the marshmallows are tiny. No, no, it's not
the marshmallows. It's the it's the oat pieces that are tiny,
and the marshmallows are They're okay, hmmm, it's all right.
(10:57):
It does taste. It tastes like your run of the
ill General Mills cereal with marshmallows.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
It's berry berry kicks with marshmallows, and I love it.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
I'll give you that. Although berry Berry Kicks is probably
a little bit healthier than this because because it's parent tested,
no approved, it is approved, no tested and parent approved.
Hm hmmm, what is that five? Shut the hell up, buddy,
(11:28):
I'm going to give it four balls. Look what I
did there. I know I wrote a it's supposed to
be a five.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
That is delicious.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
It's pretty good.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
I love this.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
It's weird because it's brand new and it's it's sealed,
and it just tastes a tiny bit stale.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
I don't think so at all. I think it's perfect.
I loved every minute of that cereal.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
We didn't even try it for a minute, just saying.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Called theater of the mind.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Scott all right, well we'll be background after this, and
we're bad.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
You just don't want to see me put a hole
in here and then so this way you can complain
about the podcast having no spots. I need to have
a bigger gap so I could put the ads in.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
There was plenty bit.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
No, you go, all right, we'll be back after this diabetes.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
You'll be ever back.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
There's two I literally that's longer than what you left.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
You'll be able to see the whole No I remember.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Pay attention to that. Just remember something for once. Just
remember down the time.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Please, I took care of all these cereals and the milk.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Oh well, what about Monday when you didn't even send
me the episode? And that's why it came up late.
I sent it Monday, Yeah, Monday at like twelve o'clock
when I was like, hey, Scott, you never sent it
to me.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Thanks to all pell Matt because he.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Could sixteen emails. Oh, here's the title and description. Here's
a picture, here's the audio. Send it all is one bruh.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Bet I do them at different times.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Yeah, that doesn't matter to me. I need it all
in one file.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Please, who's the crazy one? Now you look you're making
me crazy? Wow. So our friend Matt continues to send
us boxes and boxes and boxes of cereal. Thank you, Matt,
love it. He did buy a few that we had
already done. So please double check at serial KILLERSPC dot
com if you're gonna try to send us some cereals.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Now.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
This one was from in a box and he sent
us a couple of months ago. It's frosted flakes. It's
frosted flakes. But look who makes it? Ralston? I did
not know that Rawlston still made serious. I don't even
know what Ralston is. Come on, bro, we've been through this.
Go back one hundred and fifty episode.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
I'm good. Rolston Purina Checkerboard used to make cookie crisp.
Come on, they make cat food.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
They spun off. They're no longer it used to be
Ralston Purina, and then Priana was Purina was like, not,
we're not making people food anymore, right, we make animal stuff.
Got it.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
It's like when Colgate tried to get into the frozen
food bitch.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
Sure, and then then I thought Ralston went away. But
you know, you go to like some of the dollar
type stores, and I guess that's where you find these things, okay?
Or for him, I think he goes to the Amish,
the Amish supermarket.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
That's so cool. Like the back of it is the
back of its screams, why is there a chain there?
It's graphic design, is my passion. That's what this person did.
Somebody went on Canva and made the back of a
cereal box. That's it?
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Why, because this is how else would you make it?
Go out and take a picture.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Well, usually I don't know they have a car. Graphics
person that makes like the Okay, this is literally just
a picture that they took off of Canva and then
they got a picture of a bowl added a drop
shadow to it.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
This box was a bucket a quarter. I mean, they
can't pay anybody to do these things. So here you go, Isla.
And if you remember, anybody can use the name frosted
Flakes because it is not a trademarkable name. Now.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
I know this is gonna sound weird, but it kind
of smells like Costco to.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Me, it kind of smells like Purina. Still making it
seriously and oh my.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
God, the dust. You're so dramatic. Think I just got
me so Theloma, not even kidding. Do this if you
are a left one. The dust that came out of
this box is insane. Call Selina when barns now.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Did not mean to do I just spilled flakes all over.
If you look, they're all very very different sizes. They're
also different kinds of colors. I feel like, no quality
control here, just let everything go by. Yeah, this is
like a dark brown. They don't have the ladies with
the hairnets on the line liking stuff out that doesn't belong,
so that could be like frosted you know, metal shavings.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Or expired kitty chow whatever it is.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
So again, Farmland Fresh Dairyes, two percent milk with the
purple cap. Ask for it by name.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
I'm pretty sure. Just look for two percent milk by Farmland.
Don't ask for the purple cat milk.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Okay, you can. Here we go. That is sweet af
Oh my goodness, Wow, who's sweet? That is like taking
your spoon and putting it in the sugar bowl and
just eating it.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
I just agree.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Are you kidding me? This is all sugar all the time.
It's like a new news station, all sugar all the time.
This is Ralston. Seriously, that's what it tastes like.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
I think it's too sweet. I just don't like the taste.
It's not a good frosted flakes taste. No sugar, ain't
sugar in. It's not it for me.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
I can't even eat another spoon.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
I can give it two bowls in a spoon. It's
kind of weak, and I would never give that to
a frosted flake.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
I'm gonna give it one bowl just because I think
it is so sweet that it's not really even edible.
I can't eat a second spoonful of this.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
That's very dramatic.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
I'm making it a bowl actually, okay, yep, I'm changing
it from one to one bowl. Wow, look at you,
Thanks Matt. I appreciate that.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
But you know, yeah, it's just not it's it's uh.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
I bet it's not even real sugar either. I'm sure
it's all kinds of ingredients. Wow, milled corn, sugar, salt,
malted barley syrup. And that's literally it.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
If you work for Ralston's and you want me to
design your box Ralston's, Ralston's, Ralston Foods, Ralston Food, Ralston Food, Ralston.
What did I say? Ralston's so Ralston. You don't write Ralston,
Ralston's not Ralston's, just Ralston, Ralston. Got it? I love
(17:04):
you sometimes if you're from this company and you would
like me to redo your box art, I would do
this like for you.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
It's literally one deaf lady in a factory. She has
no idea what's going on. She did not hear this, dude,
you have. I can't even imagine what the Ralston factory
looks like.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I would please.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Where is it?
Speaker 1 (17:21):
I don't Minnesota?
Speaker 2 (17:25):
Oh you know what, Lamesville? Hmm, there's other cereal companies
in Minnesota. I wonder if they are making Sumer brand.
Is that what it says?
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Yes? Wow, so there we go. Post makes this.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
Rawston is the you did it?
Speaker 1 (17:40):
You really got to the bottom of that one shirlot.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
I've mean I didn't read it first.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
And frosted Flakes is made by General Mills Post what
frosted Flakes is made by?
Speaker 2 (17:51):
This is frosted Flakes.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
No, it's not.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
You mean regular frosted flakes with Tony the Tiger. That's Kellogg's.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
I can't believe you didn't know that they're great. That's Kellogg's.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Okay, by saying they're great, it still doesn't help me
know it's Gllogs. You do a cereal podcast.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Frosted Flakes is like one of Kellogg's benchmark cereals. That
and fruit loops and corn pops and Raisin Brand. That's
all Kelloggs.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Bro. Who's mad? Now I'm not mad.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
We've been Do you know that we're almost at one
thousand cereals? We're almost at one thousand cereals and you
don't know that Tony the Tiger is Kellogg's.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
I knew tricks.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
I need more blood pressure medication. I was, I lowered
my dosage and now I need higher milligrams. Well that's
crazy if it's happening over a cereal. No, it's happening
over you.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Well how do you think I felt when you don't write?
The time stamps down? Now you know how I feel.
Maybe that's just a little dose for you.

you on Wednesday with all the bull chat.

Yeah, yeah, anyway, we'll see you soon until whenever. That
is a crunch, add you correct. I used to be
the mayor of Z one hundred back in the day.
It was me and this whoever else was fighting over it.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
I don't remember who it was. We'd go back again,
nothing about.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
It, remember JJ. We would go back and forth fighting
over
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Not surprised that you fought over four square
Okay, what do you mean Watch the snap you just
snapped it? Yeah, to start the recording. You did that
cool snap live from the Farmland Fresh Dairy studios. This
is serial Killers.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
This is serial Killers. I'm Scotty B.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
And I'm Andrew.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
How are you doing there, buddy?
Speaker 1 (00:16):
You know, I'm good.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
How are you? You seem very stressed today.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
You know, just running around, lots to do, lots to do.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Well. Welcome to Serial Killers. This is the podcast. It's
the premiere serial podcast, the premiere. It is the PM.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
I was spelling it British with no ear in the end,
Premiere Premiere. Are we doing premiere pr with the e
at the end? It's the premiere breakfast program, the premiere. Yeah, yeah,
you know, I'm very glad you said that. Wow, It's
not like I saw what was on your phone or
what we teased in the last episode where we said
we would talk about this English breakfast cereal.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
You don't remember these things.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
I do remember these things. I was there, I lived it. Oh,
serial Killers in turn National.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
So this is really cool, slash, exciting, slash, weird slash.
I have no idea what's about to happen? Okay, so
a couple of weeks ago, I got a d M
from calf Crunch. All right, it says, hello mate, M
eight you like what he does?
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Oh fine, that'sine.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
We're calf Crunch and we created a cereal that we
think you might be interested in. It's the world's first
full English breakfast cereal. Let us know if you want
to try it? Yes, we do.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Yeah, so he.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Sent us a box, and I think the most interesting
thing is, first of all, it came in a panda
envelope all way from England. No, it's a little crushed,
but like in the description in the customs form, it
literally says cereal sweet and savory blend of multi grain hoops.
Oh fun So I mean that's a full description of
what it actually was.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Multi grain hoops.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Yeah. Okay, so here we go, Andrew without any further
edu calf Crunch. The box is all mangled and smashed.
I love the name Mother London. Yeah right, that's funny.
So I'm guessing I don't know who this dude is
modeled after. Maybe it's the guy who created the cereal.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
It kind of looks like Super Mario maybe more have
a beard, though Mario doesn't have a full beard. He
only has the mustache.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Madrio full of fry up full of fry fry up flavor,
or you know that it's international, it's got the U.
What can you do another? I can't. I was only
able to do it that one time. Just try it
one more time. No, because it'll be bad.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
It's on me.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yes, you do it better. And on the back. Look,
you can cut out a hard hat and a hammer
and you know what that's.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Called, uh, the the thing that make sure it's balanced.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
That's a level level or that's a level. No, that's
a level level, just a level. If it was a
level or it would actually level things for you. Yeah,
it's just a level, idiot. Look, there's your forklift driver card.
I don't think that's balance. This is to certify that
Andrew has successfully completed forklift driver training.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
If I steal a forklift, I'll make sure to use
that as evidence. Officer, you can't arrest me. Why here's
my forkliff? Like?
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Since okay, so on the little flappir it'sys caught grease.
Here it says yes geezer say good morning to the
world's Does gezer mean something different over there? Because here
it just means like old idiot, right the yes geezer,
say good morning to the world's first fry up flavored
breakfast cereal.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
You don't have to say it like that.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
All the salty save vory goodness of a greasy spoon
in one boxy. I don't know if this is a
goof or not. Is this a goof?
Speaker 1 (03:25):
It's informal British it means just a man, so it's
just saying.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Hey man, Okay, it's according to this, It's got egg, bacon, sausage, toast, tomato,
and mushroom.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Oh wait, what does it say eats? You could tell
this this has a good right, yeah, because energy fat saturates,
salts and sugars. Oh my god, my god, it's nice
and has one hundred percent of each. All right, Well,
also it does three hundred and ninety four calories.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
I'm actually kind of concern because I don't know.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
It looks like cheerios with marshmallows.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Total fat. There's not that set.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
I don't know, bro, I don't think that this is savory.
I think it's just sweet. I think it's just cheerios
with marshmallows.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
It comes in an interesting vacuum packed kind of bag. Yeah,
this is not I can't imagine this is actually on
the market there. I do believe that this is just
a novelty cereal. I don't think I've ever cut a
bag home with scissors, but I just don't. It's like
a vacuum sealed bag.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Caught it smell it.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
It smells like absolutely nothing.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Yeah, it's cheerio. Oh, I don't know. I'm a little
concerned that it has like checks mixed dust on it.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Look, you got some eggs right there. Don't hold on
like this looks obscene. Almost this egg looks obscene.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Honestly, they do eggs right though. Yeah, they make it
actually look like an egg.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
All right, let's go back to the farm Land Fresh Dairyes,
fridge a today. We are using two reduced fat milk.
We're gonna use the quart size container here, So it's
not gonna be good for a picture later because it's
gonna be some missing. But I'll just hold my hand over.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
I'm sure the team at Farmland will be totally fine. Well,
I'm sure they'll be fine with it, but it won't
be very aesthetic for our pictures. Now, God, your daughter
won't stop saying that This isn't good. It's not gonna
be coquette.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
That's a new one. What does that mean?
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Even on a bull chat one day?
Speaker 2 (05:20):
All right, here we go. You want some more milk
or you're good? Try to get try to get as
many pieces. They look like multi grain cheerios with rando.
I got a red piece and an egg piece. Let's see. Look.
I told the dude that we would be brutally honest,
and he said, yes, we love brutal honesty. I taste
(05:43):
some sort of meat. Maybe the hoops are not bad.
The hoops are good, little sweet. That egg, bro, there's
like fart. Got an egg? How'd they do that? It's
really interesting and fun. I'm gonna tell you that much.
(06:07):
The red thing I think is supposed to be a sausage.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
It's like a burst of saltiness.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Right. Well, here's some toaster something.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
I cannot eat another bite of this. I am so sorry.
Ten out of ten for the creativity. I'll give it
that eat that act for me. I I'm begging you.
I will not just eat that one piece, the red thing,
and it was so solid. Just eat that, please, Just
I'm gonna throw up.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Just need to eat the egg I want you to
just eat just the egg, right, it tastes like a
egg so weird.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Look, it's just very salty.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
I'm going to give it two balls and a spoon.
I think it's decent. It's an interesting concept. We don't
have the full like savory thing here.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Yeah, and there's a reason they give it a bowl.
I just listen the creativity again. Ten out of ten.
You actually made the eggs taste like eggs. You actually
made the sausage super salty and like coated with something
like it. Yeah, it's there. It's just not for me
in any way, shape or form.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
The hoops are good. If it was just a hoop cereal,
it'd be like a sweet multi graine cheerios.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I thought it was gonna be a gag gift. I
think it was gag, yes, but gag. But like I
thought it was gonna be like, oh, the marshmallows are
just marshmallows. No, you actually stuffed them with things that
are savory.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
It's just it's flavored. Like my stomach hurts a little
bit now, but it was.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
It was okay, you know what you did the thing,
so good job. Yes, thank you so much for sending
them to us. You know, a list like to have
people in the UK who listen and send us things
like that's wild. So even if I'm not the biggest
fan of this, it still is awesome that you sent
it to us.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
We did pretty okay in the UK, those last speaker
things that we got, we went up like twelve listens
in the UK.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Maybe he told all his friends to listen. Yeah, it's
gonna go.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Up this, don'tia.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
I think it's just Yorkshire Shia. Yes, well Notingham I had.
I had a soccer coach at camp who was from Manchester.
Oh I remember that fun. Yeah. He told us about
all the lifts and the crisps and the chips and everything. Great,
all the all those things. I want to I really
want to go over there, same I do. I've never been,
uh and I want to go. Okay, it's a great story.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
But we'll get you there.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
You get a long weekend there, right, Yeah, how far
is it? It's like a five hour flight.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Yeah, it's not bad at all.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Now we move on. Thank you to our friends at
General Mills for sending us the big box of new stuff.
This is the only one of the box that I
didn't buy. So let's check out the new Lucky Charms
berry swirl. Okay, new berry marshmallows.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
I'm into it.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
And this box is incredibly bilingual. Everything that it says
in English, it also says in Spanish. I think it's
very interesting.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
What about French, No, they don't do much French.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
So the Lucky Charms pieces in this particular cereal are
are fruit flavored, They're colored.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
They're not like the regular old I'm excited. It's like
Tricks with marshmallows.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Perhaps berry marshmallows.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
I get that right, because Tricks is also made by General.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Very good Mauls. Do you know what Malvo Visco is?
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Of course?
Speaker 2 (09:12):
What is it? The mal marshmallow marshmallow? Yeah, of course,
and bios must be berries. Yeah, sweetened corn cereal with
marshmallows cereal day.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
I would love it if we could open up. That'd
be cool.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
Shtti right now, and I'm not going to be happy. No,
I think I have spleen issues. Spleen like I think
(09:46):
I actually need to go to the doctor.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Well, these are also magically delicious cool save a football chat.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
It smells fruity.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Tricks is that's tricks?
Speaker 2 (09:59):
So you think they're just different shaped tricks with marshmallows. Yes,
that is one hundred percent with this. So where's the
Where does the berry come in through the tricks?
Speaker 1 (10:08):
I don't know, Andy.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Sometimes these fruit flavored cereals with the added marshmallows are
just too much, too much like tricks with marshmallows. Too much.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Yeah, it's like differing tastes, but like too much. And
you got the crunchiness and the sweetness from the piece,
and then you got like an overly sweet marshmallow. It's
just it does the most. I got like some sausage
on that spoon.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
You better lick that spoon clean, all right, No, I
just mean so you don't get the taste. Yeah, Berry
swore Lucky Charms from our friends at General Mills. Ready
there very the marshmallows are tiny. No, no, it's not
the marshmallows. It's the it's the oat pieces that are tiny,
and the marshmallows are They're okay, hmmm, it's all right.
(10:57):
It does taste. It tastes like your run of the
ill General Mills cereal with marshmallows.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
It's berry berry kicks with marshmallows, and I love it.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
I'll give you that. Although berry Berry Kicks is probably
a little bit healthier than this because because it's parent tested,
no approved, it is approved, no tested and parent approved.
Hm hmmm, what is that five? Shut the hell up, buddy,
(11:28):
I'm going to give it four balls. Look what I
did there. I know I wrote a it's supposed to
be a five.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
That is delicious.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
It's pretty good.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
I love this.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
It's weird because it's brand new and it's it's sealed,
and it just tastes a tiny bit stale.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
I don't think so at all. I think it's perfect.
I loved every minute of that cereal.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
We didn't even try it for a minute, just saying.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Called theater of the mind.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Scott all right, well we'll be background after this, and
we're bad.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
You just don't want to see me put a hole
in here and then so this way you can complain
about the podcast having no spots. I need to have
a bigger gap so I could put the ads in.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
There was plenty bit.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
No, you go, all right, we'll be back after this diabetes.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
You'll be ever back.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
There's two I literally that's longer than what you left.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
You'll be able to see the whole No I remember.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Pay attention to that. Just remember something for once. Just
remember down the time.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Please, I took care of all these cereals and the milk.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Oh well, what about Monday when you didn't even send
me the episode? And that's why it came up late.
I sent it Monday, Yeah, Monday at like twelve o'clock
when I was like, hey, Scott, you never sent it
to me.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Thanks to all pell Matt because he.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Could sixteen emails. Oh, here's the title and description. Here's
a picture, here's the audio. Send it all is one bruh.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Bet I do them at different times.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Yeah, that doesn't matter to me. I need it all
in one file.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Please, who's the crazy one? Now you look you're making
me crazy? Wow. So our friend Matt continues to send
us boxes and boxes and boxes of cereal. Thank you, Matt,
love it. He did buy a few that we had
already done. So please double check at serial KILLERSPC dot
com if you're gonna try to send us some cereals.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Now.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
This one was from in a box and he sent
us a couple of months ago. It's frosted flakes. It's
frosted flakes. But look who makes it? Ralston? I did
not know that Rawlston still made serious. I don't even
know what Ralston is. Come on, bro, we've been through this.
Go back one hundred and fifty episode.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
I'm good. Rolston Purina Checkerboard used to make cookie crisp.
Come on, they make cat food.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
They spun off. They're no longer it used to be
Ralston Purina, and then Priana was Purina was like, not,
we're not making people food anymore, right, we make animal stuff.
Got it.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
It's like when Colgate tried to get into the frozen
food bitch.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
Sure, and then then I thought Ralston went away. But
you know, you go to like some of the dollar
type stores, and I guess that's where you find these things, okay?
Or for him, I think he goes to the Amish,
the Amish supermarket.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
That's so cool. Like the back of it is the
back of its screams, why is there a chain there?
It's graphic design, is my passion. That's what this person did.
Somebody went on Canva and made the back of a
cereal box. That's it?
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Why, because this is how else would you make it?
Go out and take a picture.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Well, usually I don't know they have a car. Graphics
person that makes like the Okay, this is literally just
a picture that they took off of Canva and then
they got a picture of a bowl added a drop
shadow to it.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
This box was a bucket a quarter. I mean, they
can't pay anybody to do these things. So here you go, Isla.
And if you remember, anybody can use the name frosted
Flakes because it is not a trademarkable name. Now.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
I know this is gonna sound weird, but it kind
of smells like Costco to.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Me, it kind of smells like Purina. Still making it
seriously and oh my.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
God, the dust. You're so dramatic. Think I just got
me so Theloma, not even kidding. Do this if you
are a left one. The dust that came out of
this box is insane. Call Selina when barns now.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Did not mean to do I just spilled flakes all over.
If you look, they're all very very different sizes. They're
also different kinds of colors. I feel like, no quality
control here, just let everything go by. Yeah, this is
like a dark brown. They don't have the ladies with
the hairnets on the line liking stuff out that doesn't belong,
so that could be like frosted you know, metal shavings.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Or expired kitty chow whatever it is.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
So again, Farmland Fresh Dairyes, two percent milk with the
purple cap. Ask for it by name.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
I'm pretty sure. Just look for two percent milk by Farmland.
Don't ask for the purple cat milk.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Okay, you can. Here we go. That is sweet af
Oh my goodness, Wow, who's sweet? That is like taking
your spoon and putting it in the sugar bowl and
just eating it.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
I just agree.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Are you kidding me? This is all sugar all the time.
It's like a new news station, all sugar all the time.
This is Ralston. Seriously, that's what it tastes like.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
I think it's too sweet. I just don't like the taste.
It's not a good frosted flakes taste. No sugar, ain't
sugar in. It's not it for me.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
I can't even eat another spoon.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
I can give it two bowls in a spoon. It's
kind of weak, and I would never give that to
a frosted flake.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
I'm gonna give it one bowl just because I think
it is so sweet that it's not really even edible.
I can't eat a second spoonful of this.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
That's very dramatic.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
I'm making it a bowl actually, okay, yep, I'm changing
it from one to one bowl. Wow, look at you,
Thanks Matt. I appreciate that.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
But you know, yeah, it's just not it's it's uh.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
I bet it's not even real sugar either. I'm sure
it's all kinds of ingredients. Wow, milled corn, sugar, salt,
malted barley syrup. And that's literally it.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
If you work for Ralston's and you want me to
design your box Ralston's, Ralston's, Ralston Foods, Ralston Food, Ralston Food, Ralston.
What did I say? Ralston's so Ralston. You don't write Ralston,
Ralston's not Ralston's, just Ralston, Ralston. Got it? I love
(17:04):
you sometimes if you're from this company and you would
like me to redo your box art, I would do
this like for you.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
It's literally one deaf lady in a factory. She has
no idea what's going on. She did not hear this, dude,
you have. I can't even imagine what the Ralston factory
looks like.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I would please.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Where is it?
Speaker 1 (17:21):
I don't Minnesota?
Speaker 2 (17:25):
Oh you know what, Lamesville? Hmm, there's other cereal companies
in Minnesota. I wonder if they are making Sumer brand.
Is that what it says?
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Yes? Wow, so there we go. Post makes this.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
Rawston is the you did it?
Speaker 1 (17:40):
You really got to the bottom of that one shirlot.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
I've mean I didn't read it first.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
And frosted Flakes is made by General Mills Post what
frosted Flakes is made by?
Speaker 2 (17:51):
This is frosted Flakes.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
No, it's not.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
You mean regular frosted flakes with Tony the Tiger. That's Kellogg's.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
I can't believe you didn't know that they're great. That's Kellogg's.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Okay, by saying they're great, it still doesn't help me
know it's Gllogs. You do a cereal podcast.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Frosted Flakes is like one of Kellogg's benchmark cereals. That
and fruit loops and corn pops and Raisin Brand. That's
all Kelloggs.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Bro. Who's mad? Now I'm not mad.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
We've been Do you know that we're almost at one
thousand cereals? We're almost at one thousand cereals and you
don't know that Tony the Tiger is Kellogg's.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
I knew tricks.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
I need more blood pressure medication. I was, I lowered
my dosage and now I need higher milligrams. Well that's
crazy if it's happening over a cereal. No, it's happening
over you.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Well how do you think I felt when you don't write?
The time stamps down? Now you know how I feel.
Maybe that's just a little dose for you.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Thank you for listening to this episode of Serial Killers.
Please follow us on all social platforms at serial Killers
PC and check out our friends Farmland Fresh Dairies on Instagram.

an Instagram.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
If they do again, I will redesign your box.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Check out the MySpace page for Ralston.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Check out there. What was it called? What was the
blog website that everyone had?
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Oh I don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
WordPress. No, WordPress is how they made the site. It
was like a blogging website.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Someone will let us know.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Yeah, so check in on four square at the factory.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Dude, I was the mayor of so many places.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
I am nothing about that surprises me. That on a
bowl chat because I just I feel in my heart
if there's one person who would have taken advantage of that,
it would have been you one.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
And I don't say that, I know until we see
you on Wednesday with all the bull chat.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Mayor of this RPIs Yeah, I was not even.

Like checked for places that all you need to do
is visit like five times to get it. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Yeah, yeah, anyway, we'll see you soon until whenever. That
