"K" "E" "Double L" "O" "it's double Good" "It's gonna be a great day!"

I grew up in Battle Creek, Michigan. Oh, sure. There was Post, Purina, General Foods, and Kraft. The big company of Battle Creek was always Kellogg's.
Growing up a dedicated Star Wars fan in Battle Creek, I had no idea just how exciting the area was destined to be. Check out the coin offers on vintage Star Wars action figures. The redemtion address was in Kalamazoo, Michigan ... 20 minutes from where I lived!! If only I had known...

Kellogg had the license to make the original C-3PO cereal! Well, years later (today!) Kellogg is back and has a couple of new Star Wars licenses. Today I received this sample box of Fruit Snacks! I had bid on the box, and was surprised to find it sealed and weighty! I debated whether to open it up to see if the packets inside were sample prints too, but couldn't bring myself to break the seal.

With the neat Star Wars shapes inside, this snack is sure to be Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat!
