You know those commercials for Cocoa Puffs and Frosted Flakes? Whenever I watch those commercials I thik the cereal is like some sorta drug and when they eat it all of sudden they're high and they can do all those things. Like in cocoa puffs the bird eats cocoa puffs then all of sudden it seems to flip then he yells "cuckoo" or something. Does anyone else think so? Any other commercials that seems like that?

I think they're just marketing ploys aimed at the short attention span of young children in order to promote sales of their product.

Could just be me, though.

The more flashy the colors and the more fun it looks like they're having, the more the small children want it.

Hmmm Coco Puffs, must buy....

Ever notice how few female characters there are selling cereal?

Did you ever stop to think that Tony the Tiger is a carnavore? He can't live by eating Frosted Flakes, but he's too big and strong to be starving. How can this be?

He acts all friendly with the kids, and gives them Frosted Flakes to eat. They eat, get hyper, and run around alot. People get used to the sound of the screaming kids. Then, when the sugar high wears off and the kids are tired, Tony grabs one or two, carries them off (they trust him, because Tony's their friend), and eats them. If the kids scream as he eats them, people think it's just the hyper kids screaming again and ignore it.

I always thought that the way the Cocoa Bird guy says "I bet you'll go cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs!" sounded suspicious, like he's trying to sell drugs or something.

I'll give you your first bowl free, it will maek you happier than youve ever bean before in your life

Talk about reading something into a situation!

Although, you're right.. it does sound like something that Nancy Ragan spewed on about in the "Just Say No" campaign...
