Was def going to judge you if you didn’t throw the Reese’s puffs in with the Cheetos

I need to know what AMBUSH UNIVERSE has to do with breakfast cereal.

Also, Dennis, greatest food writer in all of history, surely you know they make cereal bars of Reese’s Puffs and other cereals (Golden Grahams nails it since they’re s’mores you can take on the go). Seems to me you have the puffs, you have a cheese milk you could use your culinary ingenuity to solidify…. is there a Cheeto Puff Cereal Bar in our future?

Maybe too pedestrian for FiS, but my first thought was, "What if you make Mac and Cheese with the left over Cheetos cereal milk?"

Now that I read that sentence, which to be clear would get me kicked out of most reasonable Substacks, I'm reminded of how much of a basic normie I am here...

Chicago corn isn't something my family succumbed to; we're now addicts that squirrel away bags in odd corners of the house where we can eat them without others knowing it exists. It's not a snack, not a meal, but an essential thing like air or water or liquid cheese. And since we can only find it at Costco we have to eat it 2 lbs at a time...

> (I’d probably stick to mostly Reese’s with a scattering of Cheeto’s Minis next time)

There's going to be a next time, not for experimentation? Just for taste?

Wait a minute... what about... Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch and mini-Cheetos... it'd be like peanut butter and cheese cracker cereal!

Yes. I'm always the weird friend - why do you ask?

I think chocolate pudding and Reese's Puffs sounds way too sane and delicious for this newsletter. But now I want it. It has to be like putting granola on yogurt but less healthy...
