Alice: This isn't my usual cereal box! Mom: It's almost the same. Alice: What do you mean almost? There's no picture of Happy the Hyena! I miss his cereal antics! Was he fired for being insufficiently cereal crazed? Mom: Alice,it's the store brand. It's two dollars cheaper than the Happy Hyena brand. And it is almost the same cereal. Alice: Well, we'll just see. Alice: UGH. This cereal has a strange texture. And the marshmallows are drab, misshapen and poorly distributed. Mom: Then I'll just fix you a big bowl of hot cereal! And look what we've got-INSTANT OATMEAL, EXTRA LUMPY, WITH RAISINS! Alice: Ha ha! Actually this stuff is pretty darn good!
What is it with tasteless, textureless instant oatmeal? The real stuff only takes 5 minutes after the water boils, and is sooooo much better.
