Vampires Rejoice! Blood Now Comes in Flavors

When I was this kid the cereal section at the grocery store was maybe about ten feet of one aisle. You had your flakes, your puffs, and a few shredded thingies, and you were done.

Now of course the cereal variations take up about half the average store. Well, they would, but probably because of cereal variety inflation, grocery stores are now the size of military supply depots.

The thing is, cereal brands have realized that in order to keep growing sales you have to keep offering consumers an ever-growing variety of cereal flavors. First they just sugar-coated everything, but that got old. Then all sorts of artificial fruits and berries were added. (Which can lead to litigation; see Crunchberry lawsuit.)

So yay for regular mortal types and their incredibly overwhelming choiceability when it come to breakfast table fare!

But until now the vampire market has been totally overlooked by the Food Industry. Until now.




Up next: Sugar Frosted Blood with Crunchberries.
