Rumba Rue Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 I have to tell you that the other day I went to Albertson's to buy regular things, and cruised the cereal isle. There must have at least 6 people there looking up and down for that POTC ceral - you could hear them talking about it...All I could do was laugh! So there's lots of people out there wanting that cereal (no I haven't found it yet). What's even more funnier, is when I got to the checkstand they had the POTC fruit stuff on their counters, so of course I had to buy one. Haven't tried them yet- they might pull out my teeth... A guy checking out at the stand behind me saw the stuff too and demanded the checker get him three boxes so he could buy them! Actually, I'm finding this whole thing to be rather funny! P.S. I tried the fruit snacks, they are ok, but not great. Also you only get a few in each little package- rip-off pirates!
hurricane Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 The cereal is delicious. We picked up boxes for the entire crewe and downed half a box while traveling between our upcoming orchestra performance and our Gaspar's Grotto pirate outing. Good eats for pirates and so nutritious too. Beats hard tack to be sure... -- Hurricane -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

Bilgemunky Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 I don't know - chocolate puffs and marshmellows? The first three ingredients are probably sugar. But that's why it's so perfect - eat a few boxes of the stuff, and you can get some gold teeth, just like Captain Jack Sparrow! Yarrr!!! I AM BILGEMUNKY
hurricane Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 In ther interim, they turn your teeth black in places - very authentic... til the beer washed it away at our next gig.

Captain Tito Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Aye, I do agree with ye all. Tis a yummy cereal indeed. They just need some free stuff in the box! <span style='font-size:21pt;line-height:100%'>Have Parrot Bay, will travel. WILL SHARE TOO!!!</span>
Iron Bess Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 'Tis' true, 'tis true.... 'Tis a pity the Disney has no idea how to market their products, aye?? I'm with Rumba on the fruit snacks. No where near as good as gummy bears and shapes that tend to dissapear when they settle. (shrug) Still, they gives you a good reason to start drinking! Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!
dasNdanger Posted February 7, 2006 Posted February 7, 2006 A friend of mine in New Jersey bought some. In fact, she's sending me a box! they have them in Jersey? *dashes off to Shoprite* Onesies tellin' on me!! I got mine at Acme - it seems that they are carrying both the cereal and the fruit snacks. I live in South Jersey - so...not sure what they have in other counties... The cereal is REALLY sweet - but the SEXIEST box of cereal I have ever seen!!! I'm thinking the picture is a might too tempting for kiddies...it's really more like Jack invitin' middle-aged ladies like me to nibble on his kibbles... das http://www.ajmeerwald.org/
tishsparrow Posted February 7, 2006 Posted February 7, 2006 my friend got me a box of the cereal for my birthday. it is GOOD. its already gone. and i have the fruitsnacks too. They have it in Shoprite and Super Walmart near me, and I'm in South jersey too.
Black Syren Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 I HAVE YET TO SEE THE CEREAL..however I did buy the fruit snacks and my daughter won't eat them so i do..And I got my skull mouse for my pc today..!! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v519/Dara286/trident01-11.png If you got a dream chase it, cause a dream won't chase you back...(Cody Johnson Till you Can't)
Rogue Mermaid Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 Imagine my joy when I got to Tae Bo class tonight and discovered that my friends had bought me a box of POTC cereal! I never buy myself cereal, because I rarely eat breakfast..but I was excited to try this one. I LOVE IT. Maybe it's because I haven't had a bowl of cereal with milk in over 3 years, but this was just yummy. The picture on the box is pretty darn yummy too..
Bosun Carmina Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 I like the fruit snacks because they're not as chewy as gummy bears! We older pirates with gold crowns have to make sure we keeps them!
Rumba Rue Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 Well I finally found the cereal. I didn't like it with milk, so I just ate it as a snack out of the box. Three days and gone. No I'm not keeping the friggin' box. Same as with the fruit snacks, into the recycling bin. Sorry I don't need Johnny Depp all over my place. (Iron Bess, don't tell him that!)
The Doctor Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 ... I don't need Johnny Depp all over my place... What's the matter, love? Don't trust yourself? Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
Rumba Rue Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 Don't trust myself with Johnny Depp? I have complete trust I will not kiss or hug him every chance I get. Now on the other hand, if it was YOU, then I don't trust myself...
The Doctor Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 Me? I'm completely trustworthy. :) Stop laughing! Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
Capt. Lazarus Gage Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 If they're really going to make pirate cereal, it should be "Honey Bunches of Hard Tack".
The Doctor Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 Or "Sugar Frosted Weevils"! :) Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
Capt. Lazarus Gage Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 Yes but remember, you must always pick the lesser of two weevils!
The Doctor Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
tishsparrow Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 i have a lovely recipie for weevil biscuits... basically just biscuits or cookies with raisins or chocolate chunks. the raisin biscuits are actually very good.
The Doctor Posted March 7, 2006 Posted March 7, 2006 I've done the one with raisins in the biscuits! It was "Dead Fly Biscuits", and really tasty. Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
LadyBarbossa Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 I've not had the gumption to pick up a box of the PotC cereal yet. Has anyone bought the Cimmamon Flakes cereal or something like that where you send in 2 UPCs and a certain amount of $$ you get a PotC computer mouse? I noticed that today whilst I was at WalMart. Pretty wicked! I'm more than tempted! I may just by the cereal for the UPCs... who bloody well cares about the cereal?! Give me th' mouse! Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
Bosun Carmina Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 I sent away fer 3 of them back in November, and they accidently sent me some little hot wheels cars by mistake! I emailed them, and they said that they would correct the mistake, but I still haven't received them yet. I know quite a few other people who have received theirs with no problem!
Black Syren Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 I did that and Received my mouse. Although I am not using it for it sits on my desk looking pretty. My daughter tries to pilfer it for her own usage. How does one tell a wee one to go get their own toys? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v519/Dara286/trident01-11.png If you got a dream chase it, cause a dream won't chase you back...(Cody Johnson Till you Can't)
Zath Chauvert Posted March 29, 2006 Posted March 29, 2006 I may just by the cereal for the UPCs... who bloody well cares about the cereal?! Give me th' mouse! I'm somewhat tempted to do the same, but have managed to resist so far. However, if they made a version of that mouse that came with a scroll wheel, then I would be on it in an instant.
