Quaker will sell 10 boxes for $39. online, but I really don't need that many. What happened to it? BTW, a young workmate saw me eating shredded wheat (old big biscouts) and commented on how it looked just like shredded wheat except it was big.

He is eating Puffed Wheat and I am eating Puffed Rice. Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile.

They can't stock everything due to shelf space limits, but if you ask, they'll get it in for you. Cleverly disguised as a responsible adult.

They milk 10,000 cows twice a day. They have a vacuum processor that they run their fat free milk through and it concentrates the milk by removing about a third of the water from the milk, and it also has a significantly higher amount of protein, calcium, and other nutrients. And it tastes rich and creamy. So yeah, people drink fat free milk on purpose. Every day on this side of the ground is a win.
