I’m asking because if I was “strapped for cash” I’d always go for cooking something rice or potato based myself, rather than buying already processed and packaged food, a most likely overpriced brand no less!
I think it’s partly that any home cooking is more difficult and time consuming than it. I have cheap and easy meals I do but they’re less feasible than cereal. Except dipping bread in pesto that’s dirt cheap and easy as fuck
Is Kellogg’s cereal even cheap at all?? I’m not in the US so I could only imagine but I’d guess it’s not, is it?
Nothing here is cheap.
Gasoline is comparatively
Fun fact: if you were to drink a cup of gasoline, it would have enough calories to sustain you for the rest of your life!
I prefer to eat a kilo of uranium
That’s rad!
Just a lick of the demon core will last you your whole life 👌
I think that would be bad for your teeth
A gallon of gasoline only contains about 28k Calories, so about enough energy for 10 days
A cup would barely last you a day
A day sounds about right if it ends up being the last day 😵
Sure, but neither would you, if you drank a cup of gasoline.
I believe that was their point . . .
I may be dense… xD
At point of sale. If you include subsidies and tax breaks for fossil fuel corpos…
You haven’t watched the trailer for Summer 2024 yet, have you?
Not really, no. I mean, it’s cheaper than, like, steak, but it usually goes for twice as much or more than the store brand or bargain brand cereals.
Cereal is actually weirdly expensive nowadays. You can do much better for less.
I’m pretty sure Ukraine was a big cereal exporter before the war, so it makes sense I guess
It’s cheaper than good cereal, but more expensive than the identical store brand
And compared to dinner?

Good point, time consumed by cooking has value in itself.
It’s cheaper than a traditional dinner probably… But yeah might as well get the cheaper cereal.
