I have grandchildren and they do pay attention to the front of the cereal boxes. If they didn't why would companies have people or even cartoons endorse them. I agree totally about the fact... why not something healthier. Even John Hopkins University stated in their article on Cancer prevention ...Article "Cancer cells feed on" ... a. Sugar is a cancer feeder. Now that is a strong statement and I personally believe it totally. Dr. Crook stated it in his book in "The Yeast Connection" ...how bad sugar is for a person health and changed the face of preventative care. My point is ...isn't it time people pay attention to what they are saying ..or is everything about money? I have to agree with you Dr. Melissa.

Dr. Crook stated it in his book in “The Yeast Connection” …how bad sugar is for a person health and changed the face of preventative care.

My point is …isn’t it time people pay attention to what they are saying ..or is everything about money?

The IOC president doesn't like the way Usain Bolt conducted himself after winning the 100 meter, then 200 meter finals. He said that his concuct was not the way he perceived a champion. So, does this mean that all athletes that are champions are to conform to the IOC president's perception of a champion? That sounds like the pot calling the kettle black to me. What an arrogant jackass. But, if the IOC president wants to say he thinks Bolt acted like an asshole, THAT is his prerogative.

It's nobody else's F&*%@!# business what HE does with HIS success. Who do these critics think they are to presume to think that they should have something to say about his endorsement deals? It's a parent's duty to mold and guide their children, not the face on a cereal box. If there's something to criticize, it's the failings of parents, not the athletes or movie stars, or whoever else somebody decides to try to obligate by calling them a role model.

Do you know how many calories and how much sugar are in those two scoops of raisins in that box of Raisin Bran? And have you ever actually TASTED Wheaties or Fiber One? I hope not. If you have, poor you. Oh, brother.
