Seriously? I am sure you kids in the 80s and 90s remember cereal commercials where they advertised their cereal and then at the very end showed a picture like this. Now given that children can consent, did they really expect that kids should eat all this shit every morning before school? I didn't know a single kid growing up that ate like this on the daily unless it was the weekend. Maybe they should have done a better job fortifying cereal with all the vitamins, minerals and especially protein to be more of a complete breakfast in the product itself because everyone I know just ate cereal only growing up.
>>20406583Yeah it is crazy, had to be some kind of agreement with the farming industry to remind people eggs and meat were still breakfast lol.
>>20406610People did that on the weekends sure. The whole "part of your/this complete breakfast" tagged on the end of EVERY cereal seems suspicious. Was it a requirement from the FDA or something?
>>20406583I remember when every fucking ad would gaslight people into believing cereals and toasts with nutella were part of a regular diet.They'd show it along with a glass of orange juice and milk, too. And now it turns out breakfast isn't necessarily the most important meal of the day, that nutella is basically 80% oil, that it is better to eat an orange than to drink its juices (depriving yourself of the fiber and consuming concentrated sugars in the process), and cereals are basically sweetened starches. And no one ever discusses this, when this shit has probably caused more deaths than marlboro ads.Meanwhile people preoccupy themselves with trump or biden or jews and arabs in the middle east when we have cocksuckers slowly killing us.
>>20406633>you're killing meeeee lol
>>20406633Yeah, we gotta get Trump back in. I'm with you bro. MAGA.
>>20406629No, it's just marketing. Kids are attracted by the flashy cartoonish characters and the sugary treat, but in order to make it attractive to the parents, you picture it next to some orange juice, fresh fruit, a glass of milk, eggs, anything that makes it look like healthier. Other strategies included making it a meal for sport practicioners. Tony Parker used to make ads for Frosties in France.
>>20406648Oh yeah I think you're right. I'm pretty sure Seinfeld was part of this too. You want to be the guy with 12 cereal boxes on display because... just because.
>>20406641>>20406644Don't you retards find it wild that we're our here shitting and pissing ourselves over spilled sand people and slavs when we the majority of kids in the us, including us back then, were geeked on all manners of fucked up things because our parents couldnt compete with trillions of dollars invested in ads and the psychological and sociological studies made with the sole purpose of optimizing them ?
>>20406658Breakfast cereal is incredibly nutritious. Even the most colorful crazy full of marshmallows cereal for kids is actually good for you, there's no two ways about it. It's not like they raised us on donuts and chocolate milk for breakfast. If that were the case we really would be a nation of dying lards.
>>20406670>Breakfast cereal is incredibly nutritious.post hand I wanna see those sausage fingers
>>20406583>Maybe they should have done a better job fortifying cereal with all the vitamins, mineralsThey did, that's why the only real problem we suffer from as a society diet wise is a bunch of fat fucks. But we don't suffer from vitamin deficiencies. The government made companies fortify processed junk food so retards would still get some basic nutrition.
>>20406583The thing about those "complete breakfasts" that I thought was weird, even as a kid, was the amount of liquid. You got milk with the cereal, and also a full glass of milk and a full glass of OJ. Junior's gonna be pissing his pants in school later
>>20406678Dairy is important to tight young supple children.
>>20406583>I didn't know a single kid growing up that ate like this on the daily unless it was the weekend.You mean you did know kids who ate like that every day when it was the weekend? Huh? Did you just pretend not to know them on weekdays?
>Maybe they should have done a better job fortifying cereal with all the vitamins, minerals and especially proteinThey did. Product19 was my favourite cereal then Total (which is similar but worse).Kids didn't generally care for either. My own parents said I had old man tastes when it came to cereal
After these messages we’ll be riiiiiiiight back.
>>20407051My go-to was Just Right. Grapenuts are inedible gravel, though.
>>20407069>Just RightNever got to try any but Tori Amos was in a commercial for it in the late 80s
>>20406658Literally zero issues stemmed from drinking orange juice and eating cereal, you hysterical sillyman. Take your meds.
>anon just doing 90s stand-up comedy bits
>>20406676>retard thinks nutritious and healthy are the same thingBreakfast cereal is very nutrient rich, thats what nutritious means.
>>20406678>drink milk>drink OJ>acid curdles the milk giving you a tummy achealways bugged me why they even needed to include the OJ. like you either do milk+cereal or OJ + egg + bacon but american boomer parents were lazy fucks that just threw a bowl and box at their kids.
>>20406583Stop lying. They showed cereal, fruit and toast. If that's insane to you I dont know what to say.
>>20409723>toast with cereal0.o>meat and egg with cereal(* ^◇^)_
Yea everyone I knew just ate cereal or a "cereal bar" for breakfast too
>>20409955Even worse... pop tarts.
>>20409951>>20409723>>20406583Hes right though. OP is exaggerating.
>>20406583>given that children can consentAnon...?
>>20409956Oh yea I forgot about kids whose parents bought them whatever they wanted. My parents were strict and never bought anything childish, I just had a banana or orange and a bowl of plain cornflakes or honey bunches of oats
>>20406652The cereal on Seinfeld was to help reinforce the message that Jerry was a man-child.
>>20410291>(((seinfeld)))

>>20410109Those images are typical but there were some that went even further with the rest of the complete breakfast.>>20406583It might have been only on the weekends but most of my friends from two parent families had a family breakfast every morning I was over there and it was stuff like eggs, sausage, and pancakes. They never ate cereal that I noticed, but it's possible they did on weekdays. On the other hand, my fellow kids raised by single moms were mostly cereal households. Only on rare occasions would we have something like in those ads and even then, cereal was still a big part of those breakfasts. Eating a non-cereal breakfast was something that happened at friend's houses (two parent) or at a diner when traveling.
>>20410315Yes its a generalization. You dont make general statements on outliers. The commericals that showed a giant breakfast were few
>>20406583Because America is controlled not by the deep state or Israel but Big Maize. You will eat endless cornslop and you will be happy.

>>20407152Strange, she seemed like she'd be a corn flake girl.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_HA5Czhtx4
>>20410315Weird how single moms are never able to cook, I also remember only single moms would ever make frozen meals every day, and feed thier kids chips and candy everyday
>>20410316Kiwi and cantaloupe for breakfast would be outliers but both are featured in half of your images.
>>20410327probably because they have to work
>>20410332They wouldn't because I literally said the commercials featured fruit and toast
>>20410327I didn't recognize it at the time but looking back, friends from two parent households tended to be long term friends with kids from other two parent households and single mother households had kids who were mostly friends with kids from other single mother households. This was far from absolute but long term friends in general seemed to have at least an above average correlation. I suspect some of this was due to cultural and economic differences between the typical households in each group but there might also have been some pressure from married parents for their kids to not associate as much with kids from single mother households. (Single father households existed but were pretty rare. I can only think of two from my hometown)
>>20410337Not an excuse cause most of the moms from 2 parent households were working mothers and they still managed to make homemade meals
>>20409045Dude your stomach acid is exponentially more acidic than orange juice
This has been known for years.
>>20410350To be fair most kids also had a fruit but it was never a fruit that needed to be sliced, it was always banana, apple, orange, etc given whole
>>20410350>Shoney'sOn Sundays we'd sometimes ride our horses to Shoney's for breakfast. Though it was probably meant for decoration, the Captain D's next door even had a hitching rail we used. #JustRuralAlabamaThings
Can anyone from the UK explain what this tastes like? Is it just cereal bars put in milk?
>>20410503Not from the UK but when I was there these things were like if you took a Nabisco shredded wheat block and pounded it into tiny bits and then formed it into a dry cake. It breaks apart very easily in milk and becomes a sort of goop after a minute in milk. During that minute it has a little crisp and tastes OK, but I prefer the shredded wheat cereal in the US.
>>20410109>carbs on carbs on carbslol
I remember as a kid telling my dad that I wanted a particular cereal and when he said, "No" I whined "But it's part of a complete and balanced breakfast!". To which he just straight up laughed in my face.To this day I've never felt so cringe.
>>20411486>cringe You are using that word wrong. You "winced". Or that made you "wince".
>>20411541Cringe
>>20411464Kids were active
>>20406583I ate huge amounts of cereal and milk and I'm cancer free, so maybe fortified breakfast cereal is good for you after all.
>>20406583>did they really expect that kids should eat all this shit every morning before school?no one ever had a breakfast like that.you either had cereal, or eggs and toast or eggs and something. no one ever had cereal with all the stuff.

Great, now I have to go watch reruns of The Hidden Temple and Guts and Nick Arcade.

>>20410293Cool it with the antisemantics, my goy.
>>20406633It isn't discussed often because they stopped doing it. It was frequently discussed when it was relevant. They stopped doing it because of the frequent discussion.
>>20406583It was "part of this complete breakfast," not "your." There would always be better foods depicted on the table alongside it, so it was technically true.

>>20410343Full time or part time? A mom working for 4 hours a day (shouldn't even be necessary because we should still have an economy where the father of the family working at a gas station or as a mechanic can afford a house, two cars, and a family of four) isn't the same as 8 hours + 1 hour lunch + 1-2 hours transport time.
