AAAAAAAA AAAAA AA AAAAAA


We went to the supermarket, I went down the cereal aisle to get the usual Just Bunches (Eng: acceptable substitute) and Frosted Flakes (Eng: Frosties), turned around and nearly fell flat on my face.

They appear to be at an experimental stage at the moment, with tiny boxes and even a mail-in rebate to get them free - a new concept to me when I arrived in this country and a completely unheard of concept for breakfast cereal especially. So I got eighteen two boxes - you may be able to make out from the photograph that there are actually two varieties, the normal kind and a sort of round biscuit arrangement that's new for America, unless they have evolved in Britain in my absence. So I'm hoping, firstly, that the flake edition is the same thing, and that they catch on enough to stay.

And already this year, America has got just a tiny bit better.
