\"<\/p>\n

I’ve always been a sucker for cereals with marshmallows. <\/p>\n

Whether it’s Lucky Charms or Count Chocula, I’ve enjoyed sinking my teeth into those crunchy freeze-dried marshmallows. There’s something about them that makes the cereal better.<\/p>\n

Oh, I know. They add more sugar.<\/p>\n

Being a connoisseur of fine breakfast cereals with marshmallows, I had to try the SpongeBob SquarePants cereal, with marshmallows in the shapes of SpongeBob, Patrick, and Pineapple.<\/p>\n

Honestly, I don’t know who Patrick and Pineapple are, because I’ve never watched an episode of SpongeBob SquarePants. I also haven’t watched an episode of the O.C., American Idol, or CSI, because I’m afraid if I did, I would get hooked and never leave my apartment.<\/p>\n

Oh, wait. I’m already hooked on the internet and never leave my apartment.<\/p>\n

As for SpongeBob SquarePants, I’ve never watched it because it’s on Nickelodeon, which is a 24-hour kids network. I’m a 28-year old man. I’m too mature to watch a kids network. Instead I watch the Cartoon Network.<\/p>\n

(sigh)<\/p>\n

No wonder the women run away from me.<\/p>\n

The SpongeBob SquarePants cereal is kind of like Cap’n Crunch with marshmallows, except without the raw upper palate that Cap’n Crunch gives me. Although I don’t know if you should trust me with taste comparisons, since it seems like I’m the ONLY person who thinks Pepsi Holiday Spice<\/a> tastes like Coke.<\/p>\n

Well the marshmallows definitely add a lot to the cereal, but I felt they were kind of small and I didn’t think there were enough of them. You can never have too many marshmallows.<\/p>\n

Actually, if they made a cereal out of just marshmallows, I would be all over that, like paparazzi around Tara Reid <\/a>.<\/p>\n
