Since the last Skug Ralston came out with the Nintendo Cereal System. It has two cereals in one box. One is called Super Mario Bros. Action Series. The other half is called Zelda Adventure Series. Mario is fruity and Zelda is berry. I'm not sure I see the connection. Both taste just like any other fruity or berry flavored cereal. If you really use your imagination you can almost make out a Mario Brothers figure. Definitely not a big deal. While at the New York Corflu Avedon Carol seemed amused at a cereal review column in a fanzine. She also mentioned that she had recently had a craving for one of the Chex cereals. I forget if it was the wheat or corn Chex. She indicated she could not find it at any of her local grocery stores. I'm not really sure what cereals are big on the shelves in England. I was all set to start a Send Chex to Avedon campaign but figured she might not appreciate boxes of stale cereal. (How long does sea mail take?) I also wasn't sure whether the postal service (English or American) would appreciate it. Oh well, seemed pretty funny at the time.

1993 cereal action was pretty dead. The only new non-healthy ceral I've seen is from Captain Crunch. It was okay but there was no prize inside. 1994 and 1995 were pretty dead too. Besides which I stopped eating cereal. I seem to have a problem digesting milk products. Ghod, I really love aging.
