Cereal box toys

Dont know about the rest of the world BUT here (namely the UK) we havent had toys in cereal boxes for many man maaaaaany years.
infact the last proper toys i can remember werent even that good, they were jimmy neutron spoons or something. after that they stopped getting toys in cereal boxes. to the enragement of children everywhere (who would grow up and write strongly worded emails and demand to know the reason, dont lie if you didnt do it, at least one or more of your friends claimed to have emailed the kellogs company regarding toys)
We eventually figured it had something to do with nitwits and lawsuits. no shit genius you can choke on those, technically you could choke on the cereal too, are you gonna stop selling it too? either way im pretty sure the fact toys were no longer in cereal was a major factor in me not eating cereal everyday.
I mean come on, you remember being a kid and demanding whatever cereal had the toy, and if you were firs to that new box, you made it your mission to get that toy before your little brothers.

So i can remember the odd toy (two or three) over the course of the last decade or so, and they always got your hopes up that maybe toys were making a come back (i dont care if your 5 or 25, you should be excited that theres an added useless plastic object in your breakfast) Today is one of those hopeful days, i present to you...... THE CEREAL TOY (hackysack....i assume due to the world cup, and it woould take a right moran to choke on it)


Its definitely the simple things in life.

So excited to find one of these bad boys. and im pretty sure were together in saying, bring back the toys..... nobody wants to read the nutrition information while eating. c'mon kellogs get it together lads.
