Name Brand vs. Generic Cereal Taste Test

Can

generic

cereal

s fool us? Let's talk about that mythical good day. Good morning. In less than three minutes we will fill our brave bowls and embark on a task that is the grea

test

challenge in the culinary history of breakfast

cereal

s. Cereals for breakfast. That term should have a new meaning. For us today we can no longer be consumed by our petty cereal preferences, we will be united in our common interest in cereals and in our ability to distinguish the best from the rest if we win, December 10 will no longer be known as System Day Dewey decimal, but like the day we declare with one voice, we will not confuse

brand

with

generic

, we will not disappear without a bite, we will

taste

, we will prosper, today we celebrate cereal

taste

test

day, OK?

It's time for frozen flakes or frozen fakes fruit loops or Froot Loops Cheerios or happy nose you get it, let's have some cereal, here's how this will work, we'll have two bowls of cereal and try each one. of these bowls and determine which one has the mark and which one is the disgusting, evil doppelganger. The Decepticons know what you mean because a doppelganger, yeah we'll take our guesses by putting our hand on what we think is the

brand

, the real deal, whoever gets the most right becomes cereal Brian, let's try one okay guys , first we have General Mills cocoa puffs at 25 cents per ounce, that's fine or we aimed for generic chocolate stains, which were 17 cents per ounce or chocolate stains, you have both, but you have to choose which one. one is the brand I wasn't allowed to eat chocolate cereal when I was a kid, my mom drew the line at getting all the processed meat we wanted and now I'll tell you just by looking at them, they look just like mine.

Something more like chocolate milk happened. I think this looks more brown. Well, I'll tell you, it's a good chocolate cereal. Let's see how it holds up. These balls are a little smaller. They are blots and not puffs. The world will know someday. Yes, you already know that. I normally don't eat this type of cereal because a lot of it goes up to my palate and sticks up. I don't like stew. This is not good. No. I will say one of these is better. Is better. of these has a much less chocolatey Ness chocolate, the chocolate levels are, I would say, forty percent lower in one than the other, this could have been part of my childhood, I'm not going to say which one because I'm not going to go , no I don't want to I would have behaved better I would have been a good son if you had given me this at least you admit that you were not a good son your hand read more than one eh mm-hmm about the brand

name

cereal in three two one much more chocolate sounds better the target target has a good game so they can fool us yes you can be better both are right yes yes it's eating chocolate but everything else is legit the malocchio and they don't It's not going to the place I mean Target has a cool box , it's not a sad box either, in the second round, why is it Kellogg's Froot Loops, which sells for 29 cents an ounce and the other is Kroger fruit rings, which sells for about fourteen cents an ounce?

So which is which is the fruit ring? One of these is almost twice as tall, no, no, it's about a third as tall, but not everyone sees that. So the machine they are using at one of the places is inconsistent, sometimes it makes a big loop. in regular loops, other times now I could. I was allowed to eat them because they weren't chocolate, they were the color of the rainbow and that can't hurt you. This is one of my favorites when I was a kid, like in grandparent scenarios you don't know in my own house just grandparent scenarios it's like something you get on an SAT test yeah, grandparent scenarios there's someone at SAT headquarters.

I need to come up with more grandparent scenarios yes, yes, on that particular question, every answer is correct, like at grandma's house, these melt in your mouth, but not in a good way, there are a lot of them, I would say, crunchy, err, I'd say more sugar, these are more fruity, they feel like an echo of those, okay, if that gives If you have any clue, hand over the brand

name

and three, two, one, yeah, It has to be this one. You're both right again, yeah, yeah, here's the thing, it's too easy so you might prefer the, oh god, they come in a bag.

I knew it like I was sent to feed a dog yes, I refuse you cereal from a bag on the third round. These are Kellogg's Frosted Flakes which sells for 30 cents an ounce and because apparently their brand is too generic and they couldn't get a copyright protected, the other one is Ralph's generic brand, Kroger frosted flakes, okay, which sells at 13 cents a piece, so if you put the word generic in front of frosted flakes, it's okay if I don't say that on the box, oh I know. by smell because you touched one of them with your nose just so you know I'm okay with that at Nana and Dad's house they always got generic frozen flakes oh so you already ate both it's still on the cover and you love the regular . icy flakes, but I don't feel good when we used to get the variety packs in college, you would hug all the frosts, whether they were mini wheats or flakes, you would leave me like plain Cheerios, I don't know if you realize, but I don't apologize, I want I mean, if I ate that alone, I'd think I ate frozen flakes, that's all I have to say, one of them is sweeter, bye, I'd say 20, 20 percent sweeter, yeah, 20 percent sweeter. both good ready 3 2 1 oh well you're trying to cut me in the head no I was trying to figure out that you're both wrong oh really this is hard these are good no there's no fucking way to turn around four in front of you you got Kellogg's Frosted mini wheats that sell for about 15 cents an ounce and Spooner's mini malt or flour colas for about 13 cents an ounce mini Spooner's I can't tell the damn difference, I mean this one is a little wider or in this case taller than this one but these are made in the same factory another or I didn't notice a clear difference in the machine the machine that makes them these are a little more compact I mean just a little bit I'm doing it dry hmm and you can learn a lot from that way now, of course, this is my jam, this is my favorite cereal of all time.

There were decades of my life when the only thing I ate every morning was these. I'm really confused, man. It's okay, because I thought I knew. I am amazed at how similar they are. They have texture and flavor, but there's something, there's a little genetic marker there, so I'm picking it up. I hope you can't understand it. I'm ready to vote, okay, three, two, one, this one, yeah, and me. I don't go by the taste, but the machine in the way it makes them, so you're almost guessing, shut up, but why do you think it's like a generic machine?

No, they are square, no. It is not reduced to a nice form of greeting. Look at the shape of the pillow versus a square on the end. I think they get the shape of the pillow right in the actual spot. There is a bit of magic in the flavor of this one. They are both right. Yes, it's true, but. Hey, if I have to give it to Malt-o-Meal, I can think of a better name. They have done. There are many generic frozen mini-wheats I've tried and they are horrible. Mini Spooner sounds like a conversation. you would go to the Los Angeles Convention Center right at five, okay, in this room we have Kellogg's raisin bran that we touch on the cereal network, I would know that I have to touch the cereal from four ounces, that's why you have a spoon and another flour malt.

Raisin Bran, which sells for twelve cents an ounce. Now we know that flour malt generates heat when it comes to itself, but we also know that its machines are not perfect. Flour malt has imperfect machines that I have always known. They just saved money to support themselves, now we could have raisin bran at my house, McLaughlin's, if I had bran there you could go crazy, my dad needed fiber, hmm, I should go back to raisin bran, I think every time I eat it . It's so good, I'm sure mom will make it again. You know I'm 41. You have to watch it.

I'm trying to find a raisin. I can't find a raisin here. I don't say it, so tomorrow, there is a reason, oh. I don't need to try three two one that one over there Balto's food is exactly right, that is not a good cereal you are very good at this, you are right, this is a great cereal, okay, single meal, yes, and no it was. You deserve, you deserve to be spread on the floor in the sixth round, as you can see, we can't, yes, we have determined that we are too good at this, guys, we need to be blindfolded to eliminate our ability to detect the differences of the machine in the material.

So what's here, Stevie, gentlemen? For this final round, they have General Mills Lucky Charms Oh, it sells for 19 cents an ounce and your favorite malt or flour marshmallow mateys, mateys, which are 15 cents an ounce, okay, that doesn't feel like a bowl there. okay, I never ate Lucky Charms because I don't really like charms, they're not Irish, there's no big marshmallow in my cereal fan, ok, that's not a bad cereal, it won't be sweet, oh, I hit the ball on the first try. What happened here? Well, I'm just trying to go about my business. Are you taking my spoon?

Hmm Hmm Wow, these taste very different to me Why are you courting? What does that mean? I'm coming to conclusions getting ready for my Bry cereal role we did it's that time we made time but you're not going to beat me I'm ready eh hmm it's interesting well I mean one is definitely sweeter than the other the other one is kind of them o OD listen The reds will keep eating forever unless we say we're going to vote okay here we go 3 2 1 what's up on your bull right yeah windows can't be fooled and we're both cereal Brian You think that, hey, but I gotta tell you right now, we smell like friends. a big old bag they're actually pretty good they're not bad let's split the time actually you'll be cereal I'll be Brian I don't know that makes me feel with our combined powers we're also the best one who tricked us with frozen flakes so yeah you're buying regular frozen flakes, you should go to Ralph's and buy the generic ones.
