Cereal

I happen to LOVE rice krispies and FROOT LOOPS like crazy!!
 
For many years now whenever i have gotton either FROM A REGULAR SUPER MARKET,the quality is disgusting!
 
No flavour and also damaged product sometimes.. (Froot loop rings have gashs in them,etc)
 
Now if i spend a little MORE MONEY at a convienence store,THE QUALITY IS 1000% BETTER!
 
I bought Rice Krispies the last 2 weeks AND THEN FROOT LOOPS at this gas station for 5.49 AND THE FROOT LOOPS WERE OUTSTANDING!!!!!! (Mucho flavour,good quality rings,etc)
 
Tonight i got FROOT LOOPS (8.7oz again) from another gas station,the price was lower: 2.50 and ya know what?? NOT AS MUCH FLAVOUR IN THOSE!! (Slightly less flavourfull)
 
I cant think of any other reason for this than the natural laws of the universe: YOU PAY MORE,YOU GET MORE... In other words you pay a higher price,YOU GET BETTER FLAVOUR/QUALITY.....
 
My parents think im crazy for paying $5 for cereal BUT I KNOW WHAT IM TASTING!!! (I think the higher price IS WORTH IT FOR BETTER QUALITY!! -- I ALMOST FINISHED THE BOX IN ONE SITTING!!)
 
I got some RICE KRISPIES from a main store a couple weeks ago AND THE RICE WAS FLAVOURLESS!! (It was not pleasant to eat) When i got them for 5.49 @ the service station,THEY WERE DELICIOUS!! (I ate the whole box that night ) 
 
Anyone else notice this with cereal?? (I cant be the only one with taste buds)
 

There is no way in my lifetime that I would ever be able to tell the difference in taste. If their stale, then thats another matter.
 
You must have some top notch taste buds.

I hear ya....
 
 

I don't eat either of those cereals, so I can't help you.  And I would never buy cereal from a convenience store...their stock doesn't turn over nearly fast enough to ensure quality for me as a rule.  But I especially would not pay more than three bucks for a box of cereal...I always wait until it goes on sale.   Of the cereals I do eat, I like the quality and taste just fine from the grocery store, but since I've never considered buying from a convenience store I guess I have no basis of comparison between the two.
 
Also...why did you yell so much?

If it's the same brand, I can't possibly believe that there is any difference in taste. If you are buying generic or store brand in one place, well, that's different.
