But the thing is that Cookie Crisp doesn't actually taste like cookies at all. I'd much prefer a bowl of Cookie Crisp for breakfast than actual cookies.
So a coworker overheard your Cookie Crisp clip and pointed out that married adult men sometimes have childlike restrictions put on them by their wives. He felt he would have a hard time getting any type of cookies for breakfast.
A funny factoid about my childhood and cereal: My mom wouldn't buy cereal if the first ingredient was sugar, but we could get just about anything else. Somehow, Fruity Pebbles has rice listed first and sugar second so it passed the mom test. Go figure.
Tell you co-worker to keep his cookies at the desk for office breakfast! My partner and I generally try to stay on top of our nutrition, but every once in awhile, one of us will have ice cream for dinner and declare in the middle, "because I'm an adult, and I can!"

And why did they get rid of the Cookie Crisp dog? It's like...a Cookie Crisp wolf now.
