Killing Tony the Tiger, The Food Police

you wanted change? well you got it. now the government seems to think it's necessary to tell us what we can or cannot eat. Sugar frosted flakes were loved by millions of kids. so was rice krispies. what about cap'n crunch, super sugar crisp or lucky charms? all of these breakfast heros and more are being targeted by the dietary death squad......

under the projected progressive food standards, cherrios will be illegal by 2021...

what ridiculous nonsense. They said no such thing. What they said was that if you want to market your cheerios as something that has medical effects (they market it as a way to reduce cholesterol) then it will be treated the same as other cholesterol remedies. If you dont want it to be treated like a drug then dont market it as one.

I swear, the hysteria of the right wing is so over the top sometimes its a wonder those scaredy cats even manage to get out of bed in the morning. MAN UP DUDE!!!! Eat the cornflakes anyway!

(PSSST but do it in the basement so the cornflake police dont see you!!! Liberal cornflake agents appointed by the communist Kenyan president are X raying your house RIGHT NOW to see if there are any contraband cornflakes in there. Quick! Grab the shotgun!

It's at least as ridiculous as these folks having a defining say in our healthcare, education, energy use, what can be built where, how unclaimed land can be used, our banking, investing, retirement funds, what we drive, how we drive, when we can buy liquor, what liquor is and isn't, who can marry whom, etc., etc., etc.

Well damn it, if you won't make the right choices, then we just have to make them for you. You think this is a free country or something?
