Why is cereal sooo expensive?!


Question:

Why is cereal sooo expensive?

I know you really dont order cereal in a resturant, but i was just wondering WHY cereal is so expensive...


Answers:
You're right! Cereal is Stupid expensive!! I'm talkin' boxed in the grocery store. The packaging (box printing, etc..) actually cost the manufacturer more than the cereal itself. But they have to make the boxes all colorful & pretty so the kids will beg mommy for it.

BECAUSE IT IS

Well, a serving costs about 20-30 cents, but since that is a meal, the restaurant has to cover all their overhead for the time you are there.

idk, i went to a place and for a small box of cereal it was like 3 bucks which isnt alot but for cereal it is

Because how else is the company gonna be able to put flippin saweet prizes in the boxes.

packaging, shipping, factory expensies everything counts up

I think it's becasue everyone buys it. It's easy and kids love it so people pay the price.

It has definitely gotten more expensive and the box has gotten smaller! (Although maybe now it just better matches the actual amount of cereal in the box!)
