Crunchberries notwithstanding, what do you suppose the judge would
have opined about crunchlets? Here's a brief excerpt from the site I
linked to: "Kellogg's Frosted Mini Wheats also come in a Blueberry
Muffin variety, with fresh blueberries prominently featured on the
front of the package. But inside, there are no actual blueberries to
be found. Instead, you get "blueberry flavored crunchlets" -- yes,
crunchlets -- made from sugars, soybean oil, red #40 and blue #2."
