Coffee Flavored Breakfast Cereal

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the make-every-morning-blessed dept.

Musrum writes "Hubbards, the New Zealand based makers of fine breakfast cereals, have launched 'Cafe au Lait', which they describe as "light coffee flavored flakes". This is great, just the thing for Xmas morning, wonderful coffee flavour, not too sweet. What took them so long? The packaging meets all known requirements for political correctness.

    Personally I like this Cafe au Lait better.

    So sue me, I'm a Java geek!

    Yeah, sign me up for a -1 flamebait as well. Although pointing out the cliche of being geeky is becoming ... well ... cliche.

    I need more coffee.

    Excuse me, I normally don't just barge into a conversation like this, but I was wondering if the moderators reading this thread would mind bumping me up a bit. You see, I don't have very good karma at the moment, and rather than try to post some useless link in the hopes that someone may mistake me for being informative or even insightful (ridiculous as that may seem), I thought I'd just go ahead and ask directly for points.
