I will Not STAND for Stale Marshmellows!!
 
My whole day is ruined, i was all excited about eating a big o' bowl of Lucky Charmes and i pour them in the bowl, put the milk in, take the first bite and the cereal isn't crunchy it is soft and the marshmellows smoosh... what happend to the good ole days when the cereal was nice and crisp, and the marshmellows were crunchy? I am dissapointed and it is only 8 oclock in the morning...

Or when you take a bite and the Marshmellows bend.

lololo :D did you remember to roll down the foil bag, and push the tab in the box after the last time you had some? If they were new.....go and gather your mates and protest with big banners outside the supermarket where you got them!!

Sounds to me like you have been a victim of the classic "Cereal Bag Air Leak". Your cereal does that when it is exposed to too much air for a certain amount of time. There are ways you can battle this, however, so don't despair! I usually opt for the simple "roll up the bag" method. It is easy and effective. When you pour yourself a bowl, simply roll the opened part of the bag over itself several times until it is tight against the remaining cereal. If you think this is a hassle (which it can be ... after a while the crumpled bag hinders proper cereal pourage), simply purchase a $3.00 plastic container specially designed for cereal. Pour the cereal in this container and toss the box. The container will keep your cereal fresh until the last bite.

I just realized we had the box, and i didn't have any, it was my family, if only they knew the heart break they caused me

Or stick 1 slice of bread in the package, roll top shut and wait for about an hour. The bread will absorb the moisture and your cereal will be good as new.

ahhhhhhhhh the joys of being stuck in a po dunk roadside hotel that only gets one channel and on that particular day it was a Did You Know program.

Someone should make a "Best Cereal" tourney.

Sounds like u know ur stuff

You can roll up the bag.........OR you can send Kelloggs or whoever makes the cereal a letter saying that you were very dissapointed and you want a full refund. Then they will give you a whole bunch of free shit.
