for cash-strapped families
Is Kellogg’s cereal even cheap at all?? I’m not in the US so I could only imagine but I’d guess it’s not, is it?
Fun fact: if you were to drink a cup of gasoline, it would have enough calories to sustain you for the rest of your life!
Cereal is actually weirdly expensive nowadays. You can do much better for less.
It’s cheaper than good cereal, but more expensive than the identical store brand
And compared to dinner?
I’m asking because if I was “strapped for cash” I’d always go for cooking something rice or potato based myself, rather than buying already processed and packaged food, a most likely overpriced brand no less!
I think it’s partly that any home cooking is more difficult and time consuming than it. I have cheap and easy meals I do but they’re less feasible than cereal. Except dipping bread in pesto that’s dirt cheap and easy as fuck
It’s cheaper than a traditional dinner probably… But yeah might as well get the cheaper cereal.
I’m betting it would actually be cheaper to cook something like rice and beans than it would be to eat cereal.
