Calvin: I won’t eat any cereal that doesn’t turn the milk purple.
The Authoritative Calvin and Hobbes p86

This quote made me think of my brilliant idea earlier this evening.

Now I don’t usually eat sugary cereal, but I was in a mood, and wanted S-W-E-E-T! I got out my nephew’s box of Lucky Charms. Since they no longer make Marshmallow Alpha-Bits (or at least I can’t find them), I settled for the little green leprechaun and his box of multi-colored, dehydrated marshmallows.   My favorite part of the cereal is the marshmallows, and if they chose to put as many marshmallows as they do oat shapes, and vice-versa, I’d be tickled pink (and purple, and green, and yellow, and blue . . .)

So here’s my idea: Have General Mills package up ONLY the marshmallows, and sell only the “CHARMS“! What do you think?
