My letter to Kelloggs...Phelps content
Dear Kelloggs cereal (especially Corn Flakes).

I am very disappointed in your company's decision to drop Michael Phelps as a spokesperson. I know that this is probably not the majority opinion right now, but I will never buy another box of Kelloggs cereal as long as I live.

As a consumer of your products while mostly high, I urge you to reconsider your position on this. I am guessing, even if you don't believe it, that stoners comprise a large part of your customer base.

I know from personal experience, that your foods are made for stoners. Pop Tarts? C'mon. Coco Crispies? Yeah nobody does bong loads and eats those. Leggo my Eggo? I have seen people (okay, myself) eat those raw when they are buzzed. Frosted Flakes? just the name is stoner vernacular. And stoned, they ARE GREAT!

I urge you to reconsider. Michael would make a great pitchman for your products. He is one of us and you should capitalize on that.

Thanks
bennyboy
