In response to skyrocketing prices for actual food — with, in all probability, his own children’s delicate, pampered intestines unsavaged by high fructose corn syrup — hypocritical Kellogg’s CEO has some sage advice for the contemptible peasants: eat my slop and shut your filthy flyover mouths.
Via The Independent:
“Kellogg’s CEO Gary Pilnick has a tip for customers who can’t afford to feed their families: just eat cereal for dinner.
In a CNBC interview, Mr Pilnick spoke about the impact of the severe uptick in nationwide grocery prices and what the cereal company can do about it.
Since the pandemic, inflation has sent grocery prices soaring. According to US Department of Agriculture data, Americans spent 11.3 per cent of their disposable income on food in 2022, the highest rate in over 30 years.
To combat this, Kellogg’s is now promoting cereal as a dinner option for customers struggling to put food on the table, Mr Pilnick said.
“The cereal category has always been quite affordable, and it tends to be a great destination when consumers are under pressure*,” he said.
Asked if this strategy had the potential to ‘land the wrong way,’ Mr Pilnick disagreed.
‘We don’t think so — in fact, it’s landing really well right now,’ he said.”
*”Under pressure” is corporate jargon for “poor as fuck and running out of options to feed themselves fast.”
The promotion of GMO corn syrup-laden pseudo-food as a substitute for real food has been going on for some time by a unified front of the pharmaceutical industry, the agricultural industry, the biomedical industry, academia, and Public Health™.

I also found this cancerous little ditty on the web. Tony the Diabetic Tiger pops into frame to drill his Pavlovian catchphrase into a vaguely diverse family of four: “When I say ‘cereal,’ you say ‘dinner’!”
“Cereal!” Tony the Diabetic Tiger yells.
“Dinner” the lobotomized family responds with great enthusiasm.
“Cereal!”
“Dinner!”

I don’t even want to eat their shit for breakfast!
Corn syrup, sugar, and a healthy dose of “Roundup ready” grains…
THEEeeeeY’RE GROSS!!!
“You eat little pieces of shit for breakfast?!?” – Happy Gilmore
Most talk radio people suck donkey balls but Jessie Kelly is correct on this one. Why is anyone surprised a company CEO is talking up their product to drive sales ? There are far more important issues.
better than eating bugs and lab grown cancer meat
Glad we have a garden,and my wife’s chickens.
We keep chickens as well, which is a good thing because I was just at Aldis and they’re all out of Eggs
If you can’t afford real food and you’re going to skip eating bugs and lab grown meat, why not consume cereal grains that are loaded with glyphosate and chlormequat. It’s not like Kellogg’s was founded by a eugenicist or anything. 🙄
The Road to Wellville, funny movie.
Circumcision and cereal are worse than eugenics.
“Pilnik?” Uh Huh.
Anagram for “a lying prick” ?
Yup, another white woman married to a coon
…At least it isn’t “two moms” or two dads…”
Not to be outdone, Purina has introduced “People Chow…” ..Made with REAL PEOPLE!
…Yeah, I just made it up… Then again the same thing happened in Soylent Green…
Good point. I am working on my cardio since a zombie apocalypse is no longer just a joke.
Don’t eat the vaxxed. Stick to, uh, Mexican… food.
Cooked very well done to kill worms and TB, of course.
I don’t even remember the last time I ate any cereal, I mean, with all that glyphosate and other chemicals that end up in it.
…it’s got to be on the map, Davenport, because you say it’s 22 mile away and you’re really smart, yet it’s not on the map…
Let them eat cereal…. Now cut his head off…
It would make an interesting science fair experiment to feed mice various breakfast cereals,especially those marketed to children, against a control group fed traditional breakfast foods. I would expect a greatly decreased life span for the unfortunate rodents subjected to those cereals.
Obesity. Those “foods” arr terribly obesogenic.
When they do studies, instead of real breakfast food they use crisco and soy powder to simulate the fat and protein content.
Wonder if they will start feeding illegal immigrants frosted flakes?
I just saw on the side of a box of Lucky Charms how they support the Celiac Disease Foundation. I said to my husband I didn’t know how much more of this $IIt I can continue to witness on a daily basis………
The ceo is a douche nozzle to a new level of stupidity!
I would imagine the cardboard box has more nutritional value then the contents!
I find that to be the case with all corporations, don’t you?
I saw a $12 box of cereal at the grocery store the other day.
That’s the thing. How is brand-name cereal cheap? Maybe generic oatmeal is, but not anything from Kellogg’s. You can get chicken drumsticks for a buck a pound or so. Why would you eat cereal for dinner?
You got a better chance of finding me in the adult diaper isle…which is to say, “you won’t”.
Carbohydrates and sugars for all the diabetic fat bodies
What you want to bet Kellogg’s is tied to big pharmaceutical
I occasionally eat cereal for supper. Mostly when wife is away and I don’t want to cook. I’m still alive.
Pizza. It’s what’s for breakfast.
No thanks, I will have a steak and for breakfast bacon and eggs. Your cereal sucks.
The Western Omelette rules…with Tabasco sauce! Ham, mushroom, onion…mmm! omelettes!
Is this the clue that they are poisoning the cereal now too?
They always have been poisoning the cereal. HFCS is not good for the body, nor are glyphosate ready grains.
Weren’t we paying the FDA and the USDA and the EPA to protect us from just such shit as this?
Social Security don’t BEGIN to pay what they REALLY owe us. Now they know that WE know, so it’s time for a whole lot of people to die. Who that might be is still a matter of open debate.
FDA Approval = Business deal completed.
Same goes for the other federal bureaucracies.
Grains being grasses, they’re sprayed with broadleaf herbicides, like 2,4-d.
Though some places will use glyphosate to kill it and get it dry quicker, not sure how that works.
Ok, I like cereal for dinner. How about grits with cheese and a couple eggs? Or oatmeal, salt, pepper, and a couple of eggs. Cheap meals, and yummy. Or how about cornbread (a cereal of sorts) with a bowl of pinto beans with a nice ham hock in it? With some green beans on the side? Cheap and yummy. People have forgotten how to cook cheaply. I remember the can of bacon grease my ma and grandma kept – with that the could make anything delicious. Speaking of cornbread, a great desert is cornbread with some of HSF’s maple syrup drizzled over it.
People need to go back to good old home cooking. Cheap and delicious.
Outside of Mom’s old standard recipe, Mexican Jalapeno Cornbread is the best in my opinion. The bacon and the peppers and corn kernels all in that heavy moist bread…it’s like a sexy pudding!
