100% chance this thing is artificially sweetened to be taste exactly the same as those glazed balls Kellogg's cereals, and then marked up another 50%.

Yes. But...

marked up another 50%.

Only 50%? I bet the chuds will pay top dollar for a Man Cereal. My guess is the markup is 200+%.

Now that I think about it, this is an amazing grift. You look at their site and the ticker is going "No estrogenics, no seed oils". They know their target market. In fact it feels almost comically formulaic according to the conventional "how to start a business" guide. "Describe, define, picture your consumer." The consumer is a man who works out a lot and is {concerned|insecure} about projecting manliness.

The price of a box is about $18 before discounts, with a subscription it's $11. Compare that to regular keto cereal which is $7 to $9 at my local Walmart.

About 20 dollars per box

The Trump Train is HSR of course but for the president's biggest fans it has a fake old-timey sound effect: chudda-chudda-chudda chud-chud...

The chuds think Trump really loves them. They're always a-hootin' and a-hollerin' every time it goes by.

I know I - cough - went off the rails. But in going off topic - I got happy making the train jokes and I need to laugh more today or I'm going to go insane at the situation in Minneapolis, etc.
