Maybe $8 for a box is too much?

Right? We have less money than ever before and cereal and milk is more expensive than ever before. It's not rocket science. All their flavour and marketing adjustments are a waste of time and money.

Also 90% of cereals are just carbs and sugar. They're more of a junk-food than a breakfast.
