          Really? I’ve never even tried them but I always assumed they were basically apple flavored cheerios.

            They’re a very strong artificial cinnamon flavor.

      Apple Jacks are my number two, only behind Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

      Also, number two, behind. Heh.

      I scrolled away and had to come back because I just kept repeating the sentence in my head. If Apple Jacks gets $19B in profit I better join the cereal industry.

      I thought I was really out of the loop. A brand I haven’t heard in over 20 years has been killin it.
