Well she has a bit of a point. I can see why if it has 'berry' in the title you would think there's some sort of berries in the ingredients. But if you can't read ingredients lists then you don't deserve to eat.

We don't pander to retards over breakfast cereals.

If you're eating Captain Crunch cereals and you're over the age of 7 then you don't deserve to eat either.

are you fucking kidding me? Captain Crunch cereal is one of the tastiest things north of the Mississippi! Let's engage in fisticuffs!

Yes, I love to feed my children Crunch Berries, from the wonderful Crunch Bush that grows just south of Baton Rouge.

Likewise, with a name like "Gatorade," you'd expect there to be some gator in there, or with "Lucky Charms," you'd expect the cereal to be soaked in whiskey.

Well if you removed all context about food and common ingredients then yeah sure.

**faesce** · 06-25-2009, 03:40 PM

"berries" to "berry flavored balls" imo

**MalReynolds** · 06-25-2009, 03:42 PM

The name is fucking "Crunchberries". Does that even begin to sound like a real berry?

No, but as it's a cereal one could assume the ingredients list contains berries.

I mean come on, the people who buy such cereals regularly probably aren't the most discerning of folk.

And even so, if you did assume it contained berries your response should be to think "Oh well, I'll make a mental note of this and make sure to buy something with actual berries next time", not to think "I'M GOING TO SUE THE MOTHERFUCKERS!!"

Oh yea, this woman also wanted to bring a suit to Fruit Loops for.... you guessed it.... False Advertising

America needs to adopt the "loser pays" methodology of lawsuits, that way all of these dumb faggots who are sue happy for no good reason go bankrupt for frivolous lawsuits.
