Speaker 1 (00:00):

And I can't say the comment on air, but it
was disrespectful.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Andrew.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
It's here.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
It's a bonus episode. Today's Wednesday. It's a prize inside.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Can can I get up from under the desk? Yes?
Speaker 3 (00:28):
This is Serial Wheelers.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Okay, Now, I've been trying to find this cereal for
quite some time.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Yeah you know what it is.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Yeah, I've been posting pictures about it. Yeah, I'm just
gonna get right to it. Great, this is an emergency episode.
So down here in the sack is all new limited
edition toasted coconut cheerios.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
Love it and I love that they have a little
uh bone umbrella there.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Yeah, it's so fun.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
I don't have big like I'm I'm not super psychic
high hopes. No, oh god, please if I never hear
that song again.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
I've got high hopes for it. I'm very excited because
you know, over the years, there really haven't been that
many like coconut cereals.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
I was just gonna say, what kind of coconut cereals
are they?
Speaker 2 (01:13):
There haven't been. I mean there's lots of like healthy
I'm doing air quotes healthy ones like granola and that
coconut when I brought back from Santa Fe. But there's
really no.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
I feel like coca puffs would be best aided by
like a what like coconut.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
No, that's cocoas and chocolate, not cocoa as in nut.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
No, I'm saying like a coconut coconut and chocolate mix
as well.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
All right, that might be good, but I'm just saying
there's no like General Mills or Catalogs or.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Anything coconuts, coconut cereal.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
I love coconut. I mean, I might be in the minority,
but I really do like coconut.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
I would be a little afraid if I actually got
on Survivor because that's all you can really eat is
coconut and rice.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Oh my god, I would just crack them all day
and eat them, drink them, eat them.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Everything.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Coconut milk just by itself is so nasty.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Let's see what it says on the back. Start your
day with a tropical getaway. New Toasted coconut cereals brings
the sweet, exotic taste of relax seeing tropical getaway right
to your breakfast ball. It mentions Fiji and Hawaii and
the Maldives and the Bahamas and Jamaica and Tahiti.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
All right, you're getting a little carried away there, trying.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
A way to paradise. And I will tell you, my friend,
first of get off your phone. Do not money in
that way. Boomer, Okay, Boomer, that was the name of
my dog. You can call me Boomer all day. He's dead,
but I love Boomer.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Missed what you make things so awkward?
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Hey, that's what you get anyway. So everyone was like, eh,
did you hear that this toasted coconut cheerios? Sending pictures
and everything. I'm like, yeah, just so you know, we
broke it back in August. I don't know if you remember,
but I'm such a huge fan of the Box Tops
program that General Mills puts out that every once in
a while, I'll check the product list that has Box
Tops on it.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
And back in the beginning of August, the available products
list said toasted coconut cheerios. And I was like, what
because I know it wasn't old, because it was never
out before. So I called it out back then and
nobody responded to me. And you know what, here we
are I'm so can we get a moment? Yeah, a moment.
Let's get into this. I'm really excited for it. To
give you a warning on the side, contains coconut, just
(03:07):
just in case you're allergic. I you know, you wouldn't
know from the front of the box, but you know,
contains cocyla. I sometimes think I'm a little allergic to it.
You're allergic to everything. You gotta cut the roof of
your mouth. You're going to go in anaphylactic shock. The
whole deal is all going to happen right now. I'm
very excited.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
Cool. Yeah, thank you for the support. Can I smell it?
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Yeah? Not overwhelming?
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Oh no, that's a nice coconut you smell.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Oh, it's everywhere.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
A small port. Oh, okay, it is.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
We'll go down. They were using one percent milk from
King Colin.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Don't you know what that is.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
That's where I found the toasted coconut, cheerios and King Colin.
I happened to be near one of those supermarkets with
my daughter. We stopped in and there it was. I
even posted a picture.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
You sent me the picture.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
So it's a supermarket chain. I've never heard of it
on Long Island.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Oh, maybe one or two in Queens on Long Island.
That's right.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
You can't say in Long Island because you can't be
in an island.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Even though it's connected to the city, we can't be
in it. Yeah, here we go.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Okay, very excited. General Mills toasted coconut cheios.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Very you know it's the o's. They're a little bit smaller.
Look at the o's. They're a little smaller than your
average cheerio.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
To be honest, it doesn't taste like coconut.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
I taste it, I own. What do you taste honey
nut cheerios?
Speaker 3 (04:19):
I don't know, like a butterscotch. It doesn't appen.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
What do you my eighty year old grandma?
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Yes, I lot.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
This does not take me to Fiji.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Oh she's also dead, by the way.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Okay, that's cool. This does not transport me to Fiji.
It makes me ask what's in the cookie box that
clearly has yarn in it?
Speaker 3 (04:41):
You know those old cookie jars?
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Yes, the blue tans, string and needles.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
This makes me think of grandma's house, not necessarily the Maldives.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
I like it, though, I do like it. Like I'll
give this three bowls in a spoon.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
I feel like after a full bowl of it, I
might get the huz because that coconut flavor, when it's
like that, it's a little bit gag inducing.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
It doesn't taste like that.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I taste the coconut. I don't taste any coconut whatsoever,
like peanut colada.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
I taste the coconut.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
So should it be pineapple in here?
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Oh my god?
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Maybe a little?
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Oh god, no, not pineapple pineapp I just realized that's
a disgusting flavor.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Maybe you can use ram instead of milk.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Do you know? I had a moment with a food
like I've never had it before, one of my favorite
things ever, from this Ramen place by my house. I
ate it, and then I thought about it the next
day and I got nauseous.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Look.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
I just got a notification Serial Killers has a new episode.
Oh wow, what day is it? We don't even know
what year this is.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Whatever. If you're subscribed to it, you'll get that too.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
You have to turn your push notifications on.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Wait, what happened? You threw U from Ramen?
Speaker 1 (05:42):
I wasn't here. I always get this stuff from Ramen.
It's mas of and noodles are so delicious. But then
the next day, I don't know why, but I just
thought about them. I'm like, that was so nasty, and
now I can never eat them again. What language are
you speaking?
Speaker 3 (05:54):
You never had Ramen? No, I have you mos and brand.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
No, Oh, it's a delicious, like cold noodle that you eat.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
O Yama yama.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
No, you're just wrong, You're wrong.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
You don't even know what I just said.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Is that one of the brands that you put in
the microwave?
Speaker 2 (06:12):
No, that has nothing to do with Ramen. And I'm
gonna tell you right now you'll be done with the
Ramen story because I want to move on.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
All right, So so rude, but I wish I could
just kick you in your stupid face.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
This is not the poor college kid Ramen podcast. I mean,
don't look at it. I see your phone. It up,
turn it over.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Don't touch my phone.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Turn it over.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Things will break your face.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
So we can't just stop with one. I mean, yes,
this is a bonus episode. I'm not gonna do a
bonus box, but I will do an additional bo you
we wait, the whole cup I did because it was
really good.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
Oh boy, Yeah, I.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Had a whole breakfast wrap this morning, and now you're
just diving right into cereal. Uh huh.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
So while we're on the cheerios kick, let me go
down to the cereal sack cere. We'll stay with the
tropical theme. Oh okay, here we go.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
If it's what you showed me before, fruity cheerios. Can
I just say, why would you think that's tropical fruit?
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Oh wait, hold on a second, before we get to that.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
I know nothing about life, but you just said fruit
is tropical.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Of course it is. You go to tropical islands, they
got coconuts and pineapples and strawberries and crap all in
the trees. They bring it over, they bring your fruit platters.
Shut up, listen real quick. We're not gonna stay. We're
not gonna stay in the tropics anymore. We're gonna take
a quick trip.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Come along. Sure, serial killers visits.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
The cereal great.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
So before when I said I Yama yama, you have
no idea what I was talking about food brands. No,
that's KFC and Taco Bell. You have no idea. So
back in the mid to late eighties, we'll stay on
the fruit fruity tip.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Here for a second. Okay, fruity tipped.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
You definitely have never heard of this cereal because you
weren't born yet and it only lasted like two or
three years.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
I love that you finally have learned that I was
born in the nineties. Yeah, because usually when it's an
eighties thing, you'll just go and you might remember this
and I have to go, No, I don't.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
This was a Rawston brand. Okay, Raston made it. They're
not around anymore, and it was fruity and King Yama
Yama was the mascot and his friend he he or
something like that.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Okay, here we go, ya Yama.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Squeeze.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Rhode Islands has real apple bits on every island and
jerry orange and lemon taste to please King ya Yama Yama.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
How does it taste?
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (08:37):
My King by Yama Yama Islands cereals pot of this
complete red book. You can say it too, you can
you can say it too. Let's say it together, a
ya Mayama, I abstained. Well, there was a big deal
like this is this is like a cult favorite back
in the late eighties and people were so pissed when
(08:58):
it went away.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
So is this what I think fruit is? Tropical? Because
you used to eat the cereal.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Yeah, man, fruit Islands.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
This is why, oh god, I can't even this is
why the education system has failed us.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Well.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Anyway, they had a bunch of contests and stuff to
like enhance the sales, and it just never worked out
and enhance the same it was all. They gave away
lots of prizes, like really good prizes. I remember there
was like a thing on the back and you had
send away and it was prizes and what.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
You couldn't win it because you were in over eighteen.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
No your kids could. Parents had to give you permission whatever.
And anyway, so Rawston made it, and Rawston also made
cookie crisp at the time, so they were shaped, they
looked just like cookie crisp, except they were fruit flavored colors.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
You know.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Each one was supposed to represent an island or something
like that, and apparently there were like little apple bits
on each one. So you would have of course said
I'm allergic, and it would have cut your mouth up
and you would have hated it. So anyway, goodbye Fruit Islands, Cereal.
King Ayama Yama, rest in peace. Let's get back to
twenty nineteen fruity Cheerios actually have been around since the
(09:57):
early two thousands. Originally when they came out, they were
made with artificial colors. They do not have any artificial
stuff in it anymore. That's why they're a bit duller
than they were when they What do you Why are
you grimacing? Look at your face?
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Because I just don't want to eat fruity cheerios. Why
because they're either going to taste like fruit loops or
it's going to be like overly sweetened.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
No, I don't think it's really This was General Mills's
response to fruit loops.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
Like.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
It took them a long time, but they wanted to
go up against fruit loops.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Is this new?
Speaker 2 (10:27):
No?
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Early two thousands? Remember I said that you are such
a jerk. What you were jerking your stupid ninety day?
Speaker 3 (10:35):
What is it? The coupons?
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Oh yeah, that show was on again today. Yeah, Extreme,
You are.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
A jerking that too.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Why was I a jerk?
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Cuz you said something at like the register?
Speaker 2 (10:44):
I was trying to be sarcastic.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
Yeah, but you said something to the cashier you really well?
Speaker 2 (10:48):
She said do you have any coupons? And I was like,
of course I do. I mean the show is called
Extreme coupon. He what a dumb question. I can't so, yeah,
these are definite's.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Way this was ever filmed, you would be portrayed as
a big jerk. Look, so they look like dull fruit loops.
They look like kibble is what they look like. That
is very true, very much. But that's because they don't
use artificial When they first came out.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
More whiskers like cat food. Yes, with whiskers anxiety. When
they first came well, that's the next podcast. When they
first came out, they were very vibrant and bright because
they used artificial colors, but not anymore. If they smell,
they smell like fruit loops. Yeah, they do smell like
fruit loops. Yeah, yeah, yeah, listen what I'd like to
do here? Grab your crunch cup over there.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Our friend BJ, she's a great listener. She invented this
with her husband. It's an on the go cereal cup.
So she sent us a couple. So I want to
try them out.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Yeah. Same, Here's here's what you do. I read the instruction,
so you don't.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Have to great. Do you want to fill mine up?
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (11:43):
So put milk there to that line, it's like, uh,
you know you would take it on the go with you.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Was this on shark Tank? I don't think so, because
it seems like a good idea for a shark tank.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
They're already a thing. I don't think they have to
go on shark tank.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
No, they should go on.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Okay, all right, so now put this back on. Close
the top, put some cereal in there.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
This is the man who gets winded opening up a
cereal box.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
All right, I put the white cat back. Okay, all right,
fruity cheerios from General Mills, clip it back yet. Now
what you do is put your mouth on this little
piece here, okay, okay, and then that's where the milk
will flow out of and you let the cereal fall
into your mouth at the same time, and you put
your finger over this little hole to control the milk flow.
Let's see how this works.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Were here.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Yeah, yeah, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
You got milk over yourself. I like the what it is.
The hole regulates the milk flow.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Forget everything I said. Fruity cheers are delicious. They're like
little fruit loops. I'm a fam.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
They are pretty good.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Yeah, big fam, this is good.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
I give it four bowls.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
I give it four bowls as well. This is delicious.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Well you know what did I rate? I don't think
I rated the toast of coconut cheios. If I didn't
three balls in a spoon. That thing you gave it
too awesome. So this has been a fun film. I
really like that fruit cheerios.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
You're going to steal the box? Yeah right, I have
to show it to my you understand, I just bring
them to all my friends. Very cool.
Speaker 2 (13:03):

I liked all the cereals, both cereals. I should say, Well,
thanks for checking it out. Sorry that we interrupted your week.

if people appreciate the bonus episodes. Probably not, if it's

Speaker 2 (13:22):
Yeah, okay, sure, Well thanks for listening to Serial Killers.

for it.
Speaker 2 (13:30):

other day. There was like a PSA for something and
she's like they're good inside the box and I was angry.
Suit we have to trademarkt quick. So thank you for listening.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
I don't have big like I'm I'm not super psychic
high hopes. No, oh god, please if I never hear
that song again.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
I've got high hopes for it. I'm very excited because
you know, over the years, there really haven't been that
many like coconut cereals.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
I was just gonna say, what kind of coconut cereals
are they?
Speaker 2 (01:13):
There haven't been. I mean there's lots of like healthy
I'm doing air quotes healthy ones like granola and that
coconut when I brought back from Santa Fe. But there's
really no.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
I feel like coca puffs would be best aided by
like a what like coconut.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
No, that's cocoas and chocolate, not cocoa as in nut.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
No, I'm saying like a coconut coconut and chocolate mix
as well.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
All right, that might be good, but I'm just saying
there's no like General Mills or Catalogs or.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Anything coconuts, coconut cereal.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
I love coconut. I mean, I might be in the minority,
but I really do like coconut.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
I would be a little afraid if I actually got
on Survivor because that's all you can really eat is
coconut and rice.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Oh my god, I would just crack them all day
and eat them, drink them, eat them.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Everything.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Coconut milk just by itself is so nasty.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Let's see what it says on the back. Start your
day with a tropical getaway. New Toasted coconut cereals brings
the sweet, exotic taste of relax seeing tropical getaway right
to your breakfast ball. It mentions Fiji and Hawaii and
the Maldives and the Bahamas and Jamaica and Tahiti.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
All right, you're getting a little carried away there, trying.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
A way to paradise. And I will tell you, my friend,
first of get off your phone. Do not money in
that way. Boomer, Okay, Boomer, that was the name of
my dog. You can call me Boomer all day. He's dead,
but I love Boomer.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Missed what you make things so awkward?
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Hey, that's what you get anyway. So everyone was like, eh,
did you hear that this toasted coconut cheerios? Sending pictures
and everything. I'm like, yeah, just so you know, we
broke it back in August. I don't know if you remember,
but I'm such a huge fan of the Box Tops
program that General Mills puts out that every once in
a while, I'll check the product list that has Box
Tops on it.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
And back in the beginning of August, the available products
list said toasted coconut cheerios. And I was like, what
because I know it wasn't old, because it was never
out before. So I called it out back then and
nobody responded to me. And you know what, here we
are I'm so can we get a moment? Yeah, a moment.
Let's get into this. I'm really excited for it. To
give you a warning on the side, contains coconut, just
(03:07):
just in case you're allergic. I you know, you wouldn't
know from the front of the box, but you know,
contains cocyla. I sometimes think I'm a little allergic to it.
You're allergic to everything. You gotta cut the roof of
your mouth. You're going to go in anaphylactic shock. The
whole deal is all going to happen right now. I'm
very excited.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
Cool. Yeah, thank you for the support. Can I smell it?
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Yeah? Not overwhelming?
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Oh no, that's a nice coconut you smell.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Oh, it's everywhere.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
A small port. Oh, okay, it is.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
We'll go down. They were using one percent milk from
King Colin.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Don't you know what that is.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
That's where I found the toasted coconut, cheerios and King Colin.
I happened to be near one of those supermarkets with
my daughter. We stopped in and there it was. I
even posted a picture.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
You sent me the picture.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
So it's a supermarket chain. I've never heard of it
on Long Island.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Oh, maybe one or two in Queens on Long Island.
That's right.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
You can't say in Long Island because you can't be
in an island.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Even though it's connected to the city, we can't be
in it. Yeah, here we go.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Okay, very excited. General Mills toasted coconut cheios.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Very you know it's the o's. They're a little bit smaller.
Look at the o's. They're a little smaller than your
average cheerio.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
To be honest, it doesn't taste like coconut.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
I taste it, I own. What do you taste honey
nut cheerios?
Speaker 3 (04:19):
I don't know, like a butterscotch. It doesn't appen.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
What do you my eighty year old grandma?
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Yes, I lot.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
This does not take me to Fiji.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Oh she's also dead, by the way.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Okay, that's cool. This does not transport me to Fiji.
It makes me ask what's in the cookie box that
clearly has yarn in it?
Speaker 3 (04:41):
You know those old cookie jars?
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Yes, the blue tans, string and needles.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
This makes me think of grandma's house, not necessarily the Maldives.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
I like it, though, I do like it. Like I'll
give this three bowls in a spoon.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
I feel like after a full bowl of it, I
might get the huz because that coconut flavor, when it's
like that, it's a little bit gag inducing.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
It doesn't taste like that.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I taste the coconut. I don't taste any coconut whatsoever,
like peanut colada.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
I taste the coconut.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
So should it be pineapple in here?
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Oh my god?
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Maybe a little?
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Oh god, no, not pineapple pineapp I just realized that's
a disgusting flavor.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Maybe you can use ram instead of milk.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Do you know? I had a moment with a food
like I've never had it before, one of my favorite
things ever, from this Ramen place by my house. I
ate it, and then I thought about it the next
day and I got nauseous.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Look.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
I just got a notification Serial Killers has a new episode.
Oh wow, what day is it? We don't even know
what year this is.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Whatever. If you're subscribed to it, you'll get that too.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
You have to turn your push notifications on.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Wait, what happened? You threw U from Ramen?
Speaker 1 (05:42):
I wasn't here. I always get this stuff from Ramen.
It's mas of and noodles are so delicious. But then
the next day, I don't know why, but I just
thought about them. I'm like, that was so nasty, and
now I can never eat them again. What language are
you speaking?
Speaker 3 (05:54):
You never had Ramen? No, I have you mos and brand.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
No, Oh, it's a delicious, like cold noodle that you eat.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
O Yama yama.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
No, you're just wrong, You're wrong.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
You don't even know what I just said.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Is that one of the brands that you put in
the microwave?
Speaker 2 (06:12):
No, that has nothing to do with Ramen. And I'm
gonna tell you right now you'll be done with the
Ramen story because I want to move on.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
All right, So so rude, but I wish I could
just kick you in your stupid face.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
This is not the poor college kid Ramen podcast. I mean,
don't look at it. I see your phone. It up,
turn it over.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Don't touch my phone.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Turn it over.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Things will break your face.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
So we can't just stop with one. I mean, yes,
this is a bonus episode. I'm not gonna do a
bonus box, but I will do an additional bo you
we wait, the whole cup I did because it was
really good.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
Oh boy, Yeah, I.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Had a whole breakfast wrap this morning, and now you're
just diving right into cereal. Uh huh.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
So while we're on the cheerios kick, let me go
down to the cereal sack cere. We'll stay with the
tropical theme. Oh okay, here we go.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
If it's what you showed me before, fruity cheerios. Can
I just say, why would you think that's tropical fruit?
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Oh wait, hold on a second, before we get to that.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
I know nothing about life, but you just said fruit
is tropical.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Of course it is. You go to tropical islands, they
got coconuts and pineapples and strawberries and crap all in
the trees. They bring it over, they bring your fruit platters.
Shut up, listen real quick. We're not gonna stay. We're
not gonna stay in the tropics anymore. We're gonna take
a quick trip.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Come along. Sure, serial killers visits.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
The cereal great.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
So before when I said I Yama yama, you have
no idea what I was talking about food brands. No,
that's KFC and Taco Bell. You have no idea. So
back in the mid to late eighties, we'll stay on
the fruit fruity tip.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Here for a second. Okay, fruity tipped.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
You definitely have never heard of this cereal because you
weren't born yet and it only lasted like two or
three years.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
I love that you finally have learned that I was
born in the nineties. Yeah, because usually when it's an
eighties thing, you'll just go and you might remember this
and I have to go, No, I don't.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
This was a Rawston brand. Okay, Raston made it. They're
not around anymore, and it was fruity and King Yama
Yama was the mascot and his friend he he or
something like that.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Okay, here we go, ya Yama.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Squeeze.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Rhode Islands has real apple bits on every island and
jerry orange and lemon taste to please King ya Yama Yama.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
How does it taste?
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (08:37):
My King by Yama Yama Islands cereals pot of this
complete red book. You can say it too, you can
you can say it too. Let's say it together, a
ya Mayama, I abstained. Well, there was a big deal
like this is this is like a cult favorite back
in the late eighties and people were so pissed when
(08:58):
it went away.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
So is this what I think fruit is? Tropical? Because
you used to eat the cereal.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Yeah, man, fruit Islands.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
This is why, oh god, I can't even this is
why the education system has failed us.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Well.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Anyway, they had a bunch of contests and stuff to
like enhance the sales, and it just never worked out
and enhance the same it was all. They gave away
lots of prizes, like really good prizes. I remember there
was like a thing on the back and you had
send away and it was prizes and what.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
You couldn't win it because you were in over eighteen.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
No your kids could. Parents had to give you permission whatever.
And anyway, so Rawston made it, and Rawston also made
cookie crisp at the time, so they were shaped, they
looked just like cookie crisp, except they were fruit flavored colors.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
You know.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Each one was supposed to represent an island or something
like that, and apparently there were like little apple bits
on each one. So you would have of course said
I'm allergic, and it would have cut your mouth up
and you would have hated it. So anyway, goodbye Fruit Islands, Cereal.
King Ayama Yama, rest in peace. Let's get back to
twenty nineteen fruity Cheerios actually have been around since the
(09:57):
early two thousands. Originally when they came out, they were
made with artificial colors. They do not have any artificial
stuff in it anymore. That's why they're a bit duller
than they were when they What do you Why are
you grimacing? Look at your face?
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Because I just don't want to eat fruity cheerios. Why
because they're either going to taste like fruit loops or
it's going to be like overly sweetened.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
No, I don't think it's really This was General Mills's
response to fruit loops.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
Like.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
It took them a long time, but they wanted to
go up against fruit loops.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Is this new?
Speaker 2 (10:27):
No?
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Early two thousands? Remember I said that you are such
a jerk. What you were jerking your stupid ninety day?
Speaker 3 (10:35):
What is it? The coupons?
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Oh yeah, that show was on again today. Yeah, Extreme,
You are.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
A jerking that too.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Why was I a jerk?
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Cuz you said something at like the register?
Speaker 2 (10:44):
I was trying to be sarcastic.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
Yeah, but you said something to the cashier you really well?
Speaker 2 (10:48):
She said do you have any coupons? And I was like,
of course I do. I mean the show is called
Extreme coupon. He what a dumb question. I can't so, yeah,
these are definite's.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Way this was ever filmed, you would be portrayed as
a big jerk. Look, so they look like dull fruit loops.
They look like kibble is what they look like. That
is very true, very much. But that's because they don't
use artificial When they first came out.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
More whiskers like cat food. Yes, with whiskers anxiety. When
they first came well, that's the next podcast. When they
first came out, they were very vibrant and bright because
they used artificial colors, but not anymore. If they smell,
they smell like fruit loops. Yeah, they do smell like
fruit loops. Yeah, yeah, yeah, listen what I'd like to
do here? Grab your crunch cup over there.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Our friend BJ, she's a great listener. She invented this
with her husband. It's an on the go cereal cup.
So she sent us a couple. So I want to
try them out.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Yeah. Same, Here's here's what you do. I read the instruction,
so you don't.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Have to great. Do you want to fill mine up?
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (11:43):
So put milk there to that line, it's like, uh,
you know you would take it on the go with you.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Was this on shark Tank? I don't think so, because
it seems like a good idea for a shark tank.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
They're already a thing. I don't think they have to
go on shark tank.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
No, they should go on.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Okay, all right, so now put this back on. Close
the top, put some cereal in there.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
This is the man who gets winded opening up a
cereal box.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
All right, I put the white cat back. Okay, all right,
fruity cheerios from General Mills, clip it back yet. Now
what you do is put your mouth on this little
piece here, okay, okay, and then that's where the milk
will flow out of and you let the cereal fall
into your mouth at the same time, and you put
your finger over this little hole to control the milk flow.
Let's see how this works.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Were here.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Yeah, yeah, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
You got milk over yourself. I like the what it is.
The hole regulates the milk flow.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Forget everything I said. Fruity cheers are delicious. They're like
little fruit loops. I'm a fam.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
They are pretty good.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Yeah, big fam, this is good.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
I give it four bowls.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
I give it four bowls as well. This is delicious.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Well you know what did I rate? I don't think
I rated the toast of coconut cheios. If I didn't
three balls in a spoon. That thing you gave it
too awesome. So this has been a fun film. I
really like that fruit cheerios.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
You're going to steal the box? Yeah right, I have
to show it to my you understand, I just bring
them to all my friends. Very cool.
Speaker 2 (13:03):

I liked all the cereals, both cereals. I should say, Well,
thanks for checking it out. Sorry that we interrupted your week.
Now back to your regularly scheduled work week. I wonder
if people appreciate the bonus episodes. Probably not, if it's

numbers and let me know.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Yeah, okay, sure, Well thanks for listening to Serial Killers.

Speaker 3 (13:27):

for it.
Speaker 2 (13:30):

other day. There was like a PSA for something and
she's like they're good inside the box and I was angry.
Suit we have to trademarkt quick. So thank you for listening.
