Hello everyone, my name is Russell.

** (drone voices) **
"Hello Russell"

Today I went to the grocery store to pick up a few things. I don't make lists, cause lists are for the weak :D When I got to the cereal section, I grabbed my fruit loops which is the corner stone of any nutritious breakfast. When I got home, to my surprise... someone had destroyed the contents. That someone, was freaking Kellogg’s:

They stuck freaking YOGURT fruit loops in my what used to be perfect cereal. And me, being in my efficient grocery rush, had made the 'ridiculous' assumption, that my fruit loops would not have been tampered with. I tried and give this the benefit of the doubt and actually try it... but oh god. Who wants to crunch on dry yogurt? Wtf was their marketing team thinking... I don't know.

Anyhow, I figure out the best way to separate the yogurt fruit loops, was to use 3 bowls; One smaller one for all the gross yogurt crap fruit loops, one big one to empty the box into, and a square one which was used to catch the good fruit loops by slowly dumping the large bowl into it, while picky out the deviants. I chose a square one as the destination bowl, because it made moving the fruit loops back into the box all that much easier.

After I was done with this (which actually only took about a minute) I had the best tasting bowl of fruit loops in the world.

That's my story :D

There is not one fruit loops variant that will satisfy every fruit loop eater, instead there are numerous bell curves entailing many types of fruit loops for many types of people.

You should have a look at this clip from the TED talks series for a more detailed explanation: To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.

I just want to go to the store in peace and get the default fruit loops!!! Death to crunchy yogurt eaters >_<!!

But yeah, some of that TED stuff is damned interesting.

I'm curious if other people have similar stories where they are compelled to fix silly things that are non OCD related I guess, since there's already a thread on that even though I think this is borderline.

Sorry Guido...some of us pay attention... ;D

Yeah I've been there, fixing the littlest things before I go bonkers.

Thanks for the link, qwerty! Now I'm going to be even MORE glued to my screen than before.

I can't even remember a modified fruit loops box... ever :/ Guess I'll check next time. As you can no doubt imagine, it has been really bothering me that I missed that.

hahaha... oh man...

My mistakes due to my rush to get things done has long been vanquished by my mother's nagging and scolding, for the next 3 years every time I make one of those mistakes.

I don't know whether it's better to just make the mistakes... or hear the nagging...

Could be worse there is some foods out there that are even worse then fruit loops with yogurt. I have seen turkey,gravy and mashed potatoes icecream, cucumber flavored pop, and a whole slew of other oddities

Jones soda rocks! I stick to the fruity flavors though.

Anyway... I MISS Cap'n Crunch from when it only had the red berries. All the food coloring used to make the purplish ones disagrees with me. :/

I used to like Raisin Bran... but those don't seem to have a very long shelf life once opened... bugs like to grow on the bran...
