LOL TZ52HX. You're right of course. Not only that, if you eat Nutri-Grain as a kid you'll grow up to be an Iron Man in budgie smugglers, just like Tony Abbott!

On second thoughts, maybe that's not a particularly good selling point...

It's one of the few things that makes milk tasty.

Marketing sells. Mcdonalds and VB have proven this.

It's just a shame the authorities allow our most vunerable (kids) to be exploited with the likes of Nutigrain and the big 'M'. But there may well be some changes in the wind.

It's not just Kellogs, but others too. Uncle Toby's is now
owned by Nestle. I bought their healthy whatever it was called
a few times and it tasted ok. When I checked the fine print, which
was hard to read, they had 26% sugar in it!

So I wrote them a dirty email and complained, telling them it
was about time they started producing healthy breakfast cereals
and stop conning the public. I made it plain that the Nestle
brand had sunk to a new low in my opinion.

Anyhow, they did in fact respond and sent me a cheque for
10$ as a refund, hoping that I would try some of their other
products. That is the only thing that large companies will
respond to, consumer pressure. If a million others wrote an
email, they would take lots of notice, for their brand is
at stake and they value their brand name above anything.

Meantime I found a great breakfast cereal made by a housewife
called Carmen. Even Coles stock it now, it seems she has
put some thought into it.

If Carmen can get on the shelves of the large retailers
it just shows that large corporations don't have it all
to themselves, its really up to consumers. Enough consumers
voting with their wallets, will make a difference.

All these bran foods are nothing more than brain deadeners for the mindless. Haven't you ever noticed how most of these "health food" eaters" actually are part of the weirdo cult ? Outlandish mutts who aren't game enough to touch a good steak for fear they'll grow a braincell. Ironman food my ar$e, it's just crappy Uni tucker. No salt, no fat, no sugar, no this, no that, no wonder we're breeding no brains.

Memo to individual: Nutri-Grain is in no way a 'health food', but it tastes better than sour grapes or that chip you carry around on your shoulder.
