Early on in my career, one of my favorite bits to perform and also one of the bits I got one of the best reactions to was about cereal. I love cereal. I loved eating cereal, writing about cereal, talking about cereal. Cereal, cereal, cereal.
The bit would be considered horrible nowadays but at the time, it was pretty good. I talked about how Cap n Crunch is so tough compared to cereals like Frosted Flakes. The Frosted Flakes bit ended in me collapsing to the ground rather hard, demonstrating what Frosted Flakes is like when it simply sees milk. I’d then follow up with a bit about how all the cheap cereals are in bags. Not even boxes. Bags, on the lower shelf of the store.
Many have done it I’m sure but considering this was like 1997, it was cutting edge I assure you.
Of course, airline peanuts were too at one time. Anyway, I saw this image on Tumblr and it made me think of it. Flashback. Good times.
