One of my friends gave me a box of cheerios a few days ago. I wasn’t until today that I realized that on the side of the box there are detailed written and illustrated instructions on how to correctly prepare a meal of Cheerios, the correct North American way.

A classic Far Side comic comes to mind…

*Two very dorky looking fellows standing around a breakfast table*

First dork to the second dork (holding the encyclopedia of breakfast) – “Wait Cory! You add the cereal first and then the milk!”
