I come not to bury Ceasar but to eat him.

Fellow Austinites! Lend me your eyes!

Since I've been living in San Marcos, I've been horrified by the amount of culinary savagery there is here. No Indian food, lame Chinese, and heaven help you if you want something that isn't Mexican.

And my god, the cereal aisle is LAME.

I did manage to buy some Quisp online, but ended up having to get six boxes worth. Even giving three to Dean, that's two boxes more than I need, and that third one will prolly go stale. So I'd rather not buy multiple boxes online again (although for Quisp, you HAVE to get it online, since that's how it's marketed).

So, I need a favor from you - I'm looking for the following cereals. Next time you're out grocery shopping look for something on this list, and let me know where it is. Next time I'm in Austin, I'll drop by and pick it up. They're not so much rare, as they're not carried everywhere:

Post Waffle Crisp
Post Oreo O's
Quaker Oats King Vitaman

and of course The Monster Trilogy:

Frankenberry
Booberry and
Count Chocula.

You don't have to buy it, I just need to know where in Austin I can get them...so next time you're shopping for groceries, keep an eye out and let me know. First two people to point me to one of the boxes gets a box of Quisp. :9

I didn't even know you could buy Quisp nowadays. I liked Quisp a lot when I was a kid, but my tastes have changed, and I think I'd find Quisp too sweet, so I don't think I'll order any online -- even for nostalgia's sake.

www.quisp.com - if you just wanna look at the pretty John Krisfalusci cartoons. :D

Oh man, Oreo-O's. I miss those. There's nothing quite like a cereal that turns the milk BLACK.

They sell those near my house. Not that it helps you, but - mmm, I gotta try those.

Out this way, the only way to get Boo-Berry is in a triple-pack of the monster cereals... Which they only sell at Halloween, and only at Costco or BJ's. Otherwise, no dice.
