American families struggling with high food prices due to inflation should eat cereal for dinner in order to save money, Kellogg’s CEO Gary Pilnick, who has an estimated net worth of $15.7 million, said.
It’s no secret that American families are suffering due to inflation under the Biden administration. Kellogg’s CEO Gary Pilnick, a multi-millionaire, views the issue as a great opportunity to market his company’s brand, suggesting that cash-strapped families eat “cereal for dinner.” “The cereal category has always been quite affordable, and it tends to be a great destination when consumers are under pressure,” Pilnick told CNBC

Guy obviously doesn’t know how expensive cereal is now.
I remember when Niixon and Ford were president CBS news used to send Bill Plante shopping for the same basket of groceries every week just to show how bad inflation was - of course they stopped doing that when Carter came into office.

What's for dinner in Biden's America? Cereal and bugs. But the illegal aliens have full shopping carts whenever I go to Walmart.

I shop for our church food pantry. The cost of cereal is through the roof. Have to wait until something goes on sale before purchasing the large quantities I need.

Except that cereal is now boxed in smaller boxes and priced at a higher price. Then there's the price of milk. There's no value in eating cereal three times a day. No joke. Bidenomics at work.

I love cereal, even for dinner, but haven’t bought a box for years, way too expensive.

As #3 notes, Kellogg's is now channeling Marie Antoinette.

Yea, eat foods that are manufactured with high fructose corn syrup and loaded with empty carbs that do nothing but harm your body. As you age cancer will develop and then you are beholden to big pharma who will have hospitals pump you full of synthetic poison so that they all can make big profits.
Eat healthy and shop sales. You can do it but you need to be deliberate. Its a matter of life and death.

Cereal is expensive. Way too expensive. My family used to eat breakfast for dinner at times but for us it was eggs, pancakes and bacon or sausage - all of which are way too expensive now.

I don't think this marketing is working. Snoop Dog and Master P have a cereal out that's really cheap (approximately $3/box), but some people are saying, based on the many ingredients, it's attempted genocide. Even Walmart won't carry it. Shame on those multi-millionaires. The price of cereal was high before biden; I can't imagine what it's like now. Leftist policies are driving us back to the days of being self-sustained. Grow any food you can so you'll have something to provide for you and your family when they break the world.

Eating dinner like it's 1977. Only thing missing is the cardigan.

Founder John Harvey Kellogg, was a strange fellow, who believed in meatless living and "clean" living. He was also rather odd by modern standards (Wikipedia):
"Kellogg founded the Race Betterment Foundation, which became a major center of the new eugenics movement in America. Kellogg was in favor of racial segregation in the United States and he also believed that immigrants and non-whites would damage the white American population's gene pool."

Way ahead of you, Gary, but I prefer the other brands. FYI, cereal prices have doubled in the past four years so it's not that great as a money saver. The milk is no bargain either.

Box of cereal at Aldi is usually less than $2 a box. It is so much cheaper than the name brands at the big grocery stores makes me think that the name brands are marking their products up way more than cost of production.

I saw an actual television commercial pushing 'cereal for dinner'. WTH? I guess from a marketing standpoint, more use, more uses are the common strategies for a product, but what an embarrassment for Bidenomics.

How about one of my family's favorite Saturday night suppers? Corn bread and milk.
You break up stale corn bread in a bowl, add sugar to taste and pour on the milk.
No need to involve Kellogg's at all.

Kellogg advocated for 'dreamers', in other words liberal illegal invasion policies.

At my supermarket, name brand cereal cost more per pound than ground turkey or chicken breast.

My late father-in-law had a theory, during the Carter years, that the gas crisis was really a war on drugs. Yep, if you can't get out in your car, you can't buy the drugs. Maybe the Zhoa administration is waging a war on obesity.
