For those who refuse to grow up
I knew that my generation had hit the big time, from a commercial standpoint, when the Muppet and Looney Tunes DVD sets came out with full nostalgic packaging and Schoolhouse Rock could market a songbook. But now the real truth of our eternal adolescence (combined with a whiff of adult responsibility) has come to light: Trix and Cocoa Puffs are now available with 75% less sugar (the decadent sweetness is maintained with Splenda)...

AHHHH.....SPLENDA? tHERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR TH EREAL THING! COCOA PUFFS AND CEREALS LIKE THAT ARE COOL ONLY BECAUSE OF THE QUANTITY OF SUGAR IN THEM.
Well, my system, at least, can't handle the sugar loads it used to. I'd rather have a partial dose of the whirlwind and kick of nostalgia than skip the whole thing...
(never fear; they won't get rid of the sugar-bomb versions, I'm sure)
