Sad. Bordering on Pathetic. I lived for this cereal and Saturday morning cartoons back in the 60's.

I used to love that stuff. Especially the peanut butter Captain Crunch.

somebody could make a lot of money if they started a company that made a similar product

Is it nanny statism or the fact that it’s a horrible tasting cereal and that crunchberries shred the inside of your mouth. I always thought Cap’n Crunch was a punishment food, “here kid eat this crappy cereal that will make your mouth bleed”.

Damn. I would still be eating this cereal regularly if they would tone down the sugar content just a little. I especially like the way it stays crunchy in milk and have never found a breakfast cereal to equal it in this regard.

Breakfast cereals have gotten so blah lately that most of them taste like oatmeal. So I've just gone back to eating oatmeal. Yeah, I know it is better for my health.

But sitting home in my jammies would also be better for my health than going to work if only Obozo would pay my bills.

I have one box of Captain Crunch at home. I admit to being partial to Sugar Smacks, Sugar Pops, Cocoa Puffs and Cocoa Crispies, but I will take the time to eat the last box and remember what was once upon a time.

“First they came for the Captain Crunch. I said nothing, because I did not eat much Captain Crunch. Then they came for the Sugar Smacks. I stayed quiet, because I did not have any in my cupboard...”

The heartless liberals will leave us with Wheaties and Puffed Rice. DAMN THEM ALL TO HELL!

He should have been a Somali pirate. Then he would have been safe.

I still go through Captain Crunch spells where nothing is better.

Food Nazis, is there anything worse than Food Nazis?

The days they make Crunch Berrys is the one day of good smells here in the city of Five Smells (Cedar Rapids, IA home to the worlds largest cereal plant).

i read thru the comments so far.. and i'm left wondering... wtf is wrong with you people? is this DU or FR?

from the article:
Cap'n Crunch was once the No. 1 breakfast cereal, but pressure from the White House and health activists is having an effect on how PepsiCo and other food companies peddle their products to kids.

it's being discontinued NOT because of poor sales... but POLITICS. pure nanny state. and you people are ok with this?

you call yourselves freepers?!
