He was a Safeway employee and in chatting with the clerk noted the cereal was two boxes for $3. That's cheap. Wonder if they're marking it down because of potential liability. Anyway, I told him about the litigation, and he laughed incredulously. "It says 'artificial' right there," he said, pointing to the box.
