The Revenge of the Cereal Conglomerate
A long time (6 years) ago in a galaxy far, far away (Bear's Mart), a product was sold that was so delicious I would often "buy" (approximate exchange rate: 1 point = $3.50) it by the case: Strawberry-Banana Nutri-grain twist bars. Even though I singlehandedly bought every one that appeared on the shelf at WashU, it was soon after that the tasty snacks disappeared from the shelves, both at school and elsewhere.
For years I hunted in vain for any remaining scraps, but the closest I got was when my parents went on vacation to Canada and sent me back one that they found in a convenience store north of the border. Lately, I've even taken my search to eBay, but all I could find was this.
But sadly, this evening I stumbled upon this page. Rest in Peace, Strawberry-Banana Nutri-Grain bar, at least until I am wealthy enough to purchase the Kelloggs corporation and restore you to prominence.

First of all I am amazed you would devote so much energy to tracking down a strawberry-banana twist bar. You need to get some hobbies.
Secondly, why wouldn't you want a dessciated pastry that looks like a happy face! Go for it!

My mother the English professor misspells "desiccated", I thought I would never see the day...
