Years ago my cousin and I were training…
Years ago my cousin and I were training for two different sporting events. Mike Matarazzo was training for the Mr. Olympia competition and I was chasing my kickboxing title. We were very healthy eaters and for both of us when we were in the same place would enjoy breakfast Mike's favorite was whole wheat pancakes. The thing that we shared in common since we were children was cereal, however we started our health kick at an early age so there was very few cereals out there that provided any type of nutrition. About 2 weeks before my cousin Michael passed away in 2014 we had decided to create some type of breakfast cereal that would contain a high protein content as well as fiber no sugar or low sugar and medium complex carbohydrates. We contacted a few organizations that specialized in breakfast cereals and I think that if it wasn't for Michaels death we would have came up with something a lot healthier and definitely a lot more affordable than magic spoon. I am not debating that in some way or another this cereal is healthy however at $10 to $12 a box it would be cheaper to buy a couple of 2 lb containers of whey protein and call it a day. This company uses eye-catching colorful childlike designs on their boxes considering it's an adult cereal I'm not really understanding the graphics and as far as the price goes one of the offers was $10 a box a minimum of four boxes that's $40 for breakfast cereal that really doesn't go as far as you would think it would. Now that I have seen the product and I have seen the prices and the box designs I believe it's time to revisit the dream that my cousin Mike and I had a few years ago before magic spoon was even an idea on a piece of paper. This product is not what it claims to be the taste is not what it claims to be and considering the fact that we are going through one of the worst recessions we've ever had the price they are asking for the cereal is absolutely ridiculous and it has fueled my desire to create a protein base cereal with all the necessary nutrition that not only adults can enjoy but also children as well to gear them away from the high sugar content of the regular cereals out there and hopefully bring a breakfast brand name into the mix. I'm not sure where all these five star reviews are coming from they must be giving out free cereal or paying people to write these reviews but it infuriates me that this company with a childish graphic design would charge this much money at the worst possible time in this country's history and I'm almost insulted by it so now it's time to bring an incredible amount of competition so people can actually afford a healthy cereal.
