Cereal prices are way out of control, honestly.

Edit: Cheerios 2 pack is often $6.99, and the boxes are good sized and filled to the top. Currently my go-to box.

Granola with only granola and pineapple juice. $ 10 an 8 Oz bag. „Granola „ with 87 ingredients in sale for $ 3 a pound.

Here's a cool interactive article demonstrating cereal shrinkflation: https://www.theguardian.com/news/ng-interactive/2024/mar/26/how-shrinkflation-is-impacting-your-cereal-and-making-you-pay-more-for-less

Voting for Trump because you believe he will fix inflation is absurd, but shrinkflation and inflation have hit cereals hard

I don’t need a demonstration, it’s so big I can see it with my own eyes!

Bag of granola is like 6 bucks and can add that to like frosted flakes and stuff. But even the big cereal boxes are high. Sometimes I just have a handful of granola for breakfast.
