WILL SANDBERG: MALT-O-MEAL

MALT-0-MEAL

The commercial ran constantly. The spokesman

crouch-walking down the cereal aisle in a necktie.

Get down here, he waved, and the camera panned

to the lowest shelf where the bags of cereal were.

He grabbed a bag of Tootie Fruities, claiming they

tasted just as good as the name brand Fruit Loops.

See, bet you can't tell the difference. And they cost

about a dollar less. Other people did the same silly

crouch-walk across the screen holding cereal bags:

a grandma, a teen in a backwards hat and flannel,

and someone resembling Al Roker, the weatherman.

Malt-O-Meal. You really ought to come down here.
