The bad taste was not what I was questioning. I was wondering how they
stayed crisp when ALL the other cereals turn to mush by the time you get
to the bottom of the bowl.

Maybe they cook it longer until actually starts to burn, and then add a
bunch of yellow dye to make it look like they just added even more sugar.

My guess is that it was a good amount of oil. I loved Cap'n Crunch. That stuff used to be sweeter because they would spray with a clear coat of sugar 'n oil. That made it glisten like a bowl full of jewels. Don't even get me started on Peanut Butter Crunch.

If you had a problem with the Cap'n you don't like Vector cereal. I
think it is make of flakes of plastic. The texture was a little too
hard for me to enjoy.

At first I too wondered about the same thing. But after years of
familiarity, it's clear Ophelia is just dim-witted.

I've faced so much of a hassle most days in the past 17 years that I don't either.

It does look great. I would have aimed for a little rarer, but that is
ce3rtainly within range.

We have a boneless leg of lamb for tomorrow. I don't know whether to
cook it whole or to cube it and make kebabs.

Lamb souvlaki would sound OK. Is it good out for grilling?
