It's driving me nuts (pun intended) - I bought some Grape Nuts cereal and I can't remember the name of the guy that advertised for them I think, decades ago. He was the original back-to-nature, organic, granola greenie.

I seldom eat breakfast cereal. But when I do it's Grape Nuts, Shredded Wheat or Cheerios.

Dang how I hate my mind has been warped. There are so many innuendos and sound bites; I am sure that was a wholesome commercial back in the day.

I remember the first time I had Grape Nuts. Sat down and poured a bowl full just like any other cereal, Didn't take long to realize there was no way I was eating all that.

He came to Tyler Jr. College sometime circa '74-'76 That morning we went to Wagstaff Gym and had breakfast with Euell Gibbons. Grape Nuts of course. I don't remember why he came but I did meet him and talk with him for a few minutes.
Haven't eaten Grape Nuts in years. Now I want some!
FWIW, President Gerald Ford also came to TJC. I think that was spring of '76.

I eat Grape Nuts about once a week. Can’t say that I like it much. I call it pea gravel.

If you find yourself feeling useless, remember it took 20 years, trillions of dollars, and four presidents to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.
Sometimes the Universe puts you in the same situation again to see if you’re still a dumbass.
