Pokémon Cereal Bowl Set: Cap’n Crunch, I Choose You!

Growing up. my mom never cooked and when she did it was in the microwave or the deep fryer. Forget about getting bacon and eggs for breakfast. If you ate it was cereal. I like cereal as much as the next kid, but the problem was by brother was all Fruity Pebbles all the time and was much whinier than I so that’s what we ate 90% of the time. All I really wanted was some Cap’n Crunch.

Now that I am grown, I eat some Cap’n Crunch whenever I want and It might be cool to eat it in these Pokémon cereal bowls. Each bowl is themed like a creature including Pikachu, Squirtle, Bulbasaur, and Charmander.

The bowls will hold 18 fluid ounces and can be put in the dishwasher or microwave. The bowls are 6-inches at the top and 3-inches deep, which won’t hold that many Crunch Berries if you ask me. The set costs $19.99(USD) and is available at ThinkGeek now.

The Selfie Spoon: This Really Needs to Stop

Selfies. A vile habit for the vain? Or just a fun way to be forever alone? Maybe both. Selfies jumped the shark a long time ago with such products as the Selfie Stick. Just when you thought the selfie accessories could not get any stranger, along comes the Selfie Spoon.

You have to eat. And you have to take selfies. Right? Well, now you no longer have to pause your food intake to get that shot. General Mills has invented the Selfie Spoon. That’s right. A spoon with a built-in selfie stick.

So we can see pictures of you stuffing your face with Captain Crunch and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Not Fruit Loops, because that’s you if you use this thing. How did you survive without it?

If Cereals Had Action Figures

Back when I was a kid, the prizes in cereal boxes used to be pretty great, but then some stupid kids had to go swallow their toys and ruin it for everyone. The lawyers intervened, and such began the demise of cereal box toys, and the rise of idiotic crap like online redemption codes. If they still put toys in cereal boxes, I’d hope that they’d look something like these.

Artist Phil Postma of Minion Factory created these awesome mock collectible figures for a series called Cereal Critters. Not only do they look great, but each one comes packaged on a cereal box blister pack.

Phil gets serious bonus points for including Yummy Mummy, though I wish he had done a Fruit Brute one too. That was my favorite. That and Quisp. And Quangaroos. What ever happened to orange-flavored cereal?

If Kellogg’s, Post and General Mills can’t be bothered to put toys back in their cereal boxes, the least they could do is let us mail in box tops for these toys. While we wait patiently for that to happen, stop by Phil’s website to check out the rest of his awesome Cereal Critters.

Superman Cereal: Part of a Nutritious Breakfast (on Krypton)

I just got back from seeing Man of Steel, so I’ve got Superman on the brain. It’s also time for breakfast around here, and I could use some cereal. Thanks to designer Phil Postma, I can enjoy both Superman and breakfast cereal at the same time.

Postma created a series of Superman-inspired cereal boxes, featuring the Man of Steel himself, as well as some of his nemeses. Thankfully, Superman’s Sugar Justice cereal is 100% Kryptonite free, though the same can’t be said for the Kryptonite Krunch! Check out all six cereal box designs in the gallery below:

Great job, Phil! But where are my Lex Luthor Loops and General Zod Flakes?

SexCereal: The Way to a Better Sex Life is Through Your Breakfast Cereal

Sexcereal

Performing less than your stellar self in the bedroom lately? You can either chug down supplements to give you the boost you need or you can change your diet for the better. If you decide to go for the latter, then why not start with breakfast?

It’s probably a novelty product at best, but there’s a new cereal in town that claims to improve your sex life, and it’s aptly called SexCereal. It’s a gender-specific super food of sorts that contains ingredients that will support testosterone for the guys and support hormonal balance for the girls.

The SexCereal for men lists bee pollen, black sesame, wheat germ, camu camu, pumpkin seeds, and goji berry among its ingredients. Meanwhile, SexCereal for women has ginger, sunflower, almonds, flax seeds, and oat bran thrown into the mix. Both contain maca, cacao nibs, oats, and chia seeds.

Does it really work? I guess you’ll have to try it out yourself and find out.

Each pack of SexCereal costs CAD $ 29.85 (about $29.21.)

If Cereal Mascots Were Drawn Realistically, I’d Pass on Breakfast

A lot of people would agree that breakfast is perhaps the most important meal of the day. I agree and I never miss it if I have a choice. But if the mascots on the cereal boxes had a change of face and were changed to look like the ones below, then I wouldn’t hesitate to skip it.

Not because I want to, but because I don’t think I can stomach it.

CerealThese realistic renderings were done by graphic designer and illustrator Guillermo Fajardo who wanted to do something different with something that’s so well-known.

I’ve always wondered what if the characters from our favorite cereal boxes were actual real life moving and dramatic creatures…This project is based on a personal point of view, taking all my child memories and turning them into a new sarcastic and adult vision, remaking all the cereal gang.

Tony the Tiger, Cap’n Crunch, Count Chocula and Trix Rabbit never looked this realistic–or this mean, scary, and creepy.

What do you think?

The Cereal Bowl Lamp: Now This Is Creativity!

A cereal bowl lamp! This is perfect! It’s exactly what we’d give to Walt Junior, our favorite Breaking Bad character, and number #1 breakfast fan.

The lamp itself, shaped and themed after a bowl of cereal is the product of ideaka (aka Chris Haines)’s idea. Users can turn it off and ...
