I used the sponsor codes from hundreds of Youtubers all at once to buy a box of Magic Spoon cereal and now they own me fifty thousand dollars

Todays cereal is Magic Spoon Cocoa!
Initial impressions: I'll be honest, I impulse bought these because I liked the box. Perhaps Magic Spoon's aggressive online advertising seeped into my brain and jumped out the second I saw these in real life or perhaps it was entirely down to the presence of the whacked out dog on the front, we shall never know. Either way, this box of cereal was an extortionately expensive $10, so as a result I am going into this bowl with the hardened attitude of someone who knows they have been ripped off. I hope I can move beyond this bitterness into a fair review.
Post bowl thoughts: I cannot move beyond the bitterness into a fair review. Magic Spoon bills itself as a 'delicious childlike cereal for grown-ups', which I now know to mean they have made a cereal so utterly repellent to children it needs to be explicitly stated that this is not for them. There is no sugar in this bowl of cereal, and the sticky chocolate coating that ineffectively covers the pale white hoops is almost savoury. I would not be opposed in the slightest if, say, the chocolate was some sort of richly dark and bitter coating, but unfortunately it's not a strong taste in any way. Once again, blandness is the cardinal cereal sin.
The best part of the bowl is the cereal base, which manages to be an acceptable texture, a feat unusual in the world of gluten free cereals. It's certainly more crispy than crunchy and it does admittedly have a grainy mouthfeel but overall, if it had come with more of a substantial flavouring, I can see it being pleasant. I also love the fact that the hoops are kind of squashed looking, without a consistency of shape. It adds a whimsy to a cereal that lacks any flavour appeal.
At the end of the day, although there are parts to be appreciated about this bowl, the overall insipid nature of the cereal experience means that I simply cannot recommend spooning out $10 for these.

We found the fancy Magic Spoon cereal on the way to get sweet potato chips from the organic aisle at the store yesterday. They had cocoa, fruity, cinnamon, and maple waffle flavors. We got the maple waffle, but to be honest the price made me die a little inside. It's definitely an actual treat to get it, maybe once a month. I've been dying to try it, though, since they sponsor at least one of my favorite YouTubers. I can't wait to open it up and taste it. Please please please live up to the hype--🤤
(I just feel like being weird don't mind me.)

As someone who often takes things a bit too literally unless I’m prepared for that kinda talk, and who just visualizes things in unique ways in general, I’m typically not the first person to judge when it happens to other people. I know what that’s like, and I don’t wanna be mean.
... but I will do it now, semi-anonymously, as a treat.
So I finally satisfied my curiosity and bought some Magic Spoon cereal. In case you don’t know what that is, it’s a brand of expensive “healthy” cereal that tries to be as sweet and fun as childhood cereals, all while being high-protein and keto-friendly and whatnot. I assumed most of my peers knew what this was, as I often see YouTubers advertising for Magic Spoon by giving out $5 coupon links. Magic Spoon even appears in the final end credits scene of the last Guardians of the Galaxy movie.
Cut to a recent theater rehearsal of mine, and we all have to share a good or interesting thing we did that week. I mentioned my recent purchase, half-expecting that someone would tease me for buying a 4-pack of pricey cereal. However, no one even knew what Magic Spoon was, so I gave that basic explanation that I wrote above.
Everyone easily accepted this explanation except for one person in the group, who was really hung up on the fact that the brand was called “Magic Spoon.”
Her: So, do they also sell spoons?
Me: Nope. Just cereal.
Her: Is the cereal... shaped like spoons?
Me: .... no, they’re just... loops.
Her: Then WHY is it called Magic Spoon?
At this point, I was so baffled by her being baffled that I just. wordlessly started miming using a spoon in an invisible bowl of cereal.
Like.... she has a point. Most cereal names usually just refer to aspects of the cereal. Apple Jacks, Froot Loops, Lucky Charms, Chex, Cookie Crisp, Cocoa Puffs, etc. While the “Magic” is describing the cereal brand itself, the “Spoon” is just alluding to the abstract concept of how people eat cereal, thus causing the confusion. But I guess I just always accepted the gimmicky name and never considered that the cereal itself doesn’t have much to do with spoons.
I am aware this story is NOT interesting, and that’s partly why I’m typing it out. Perhaps now I’ll stop thinking about it, or at least stop randomly miming using a spoon to myself.

Shakira has joined an $80m series B funding round for US breakfast cereal maker Magic Spoon. It is her first public investment since her 2020 outlay into nut snack brand SkinnyDipped. Both are gluten-free brands. Full article here.

thinking about how this cereal that went around in youtube sponsorships for a while is called magic spoon but has these corporate google drawings for mascots instead of a wizard who uses a spoon to grant +30 nutrients

I’ve said it before an I’ll say it again Magic Spoon cereal is absolutely disgusting. It’s nowhere near worth the ridiculous price. It was like eating styrofoam that someone painted. Just buy regular cereal, carbs won’t kill you, you’ll be fine. And if carbs really are a major problem for you maybe just skip the cereal altogether

New Cereality
I confess. They say it is good for the soul anyway. When I was a young lad, I was a slave to my bowl and spoon at breakfast. I did this for years, until I went off to university and a variety of cooked foods were available at the Caf. I would plow through box after box of Cap’n Crunch until I got sick of it, then switch to Life or some other sugary confection. 

“More milk, Mom!”
I couldn’t tell you the last time I had a bowl of cereal. I know I slipped into my childhood ways once out on my own, but that faded long ago. I now cook something every morning. I don’t miss it a bit, and love sautéing vegetables and blending them into my Just Egg. Talk about eating healthily. I guess getting old makes you think more about these things.
There’s a reason why America has fallen in love with heavily processed, sugar-laden breakfast cereals. We have an abundance of wheat and corn here, and the myriad varieties available are just a way to try to get us to consume some of it. The sweeteners, of course, are also derived from corn. Every time you eat a bowl of cereal, you are keeping midwest farmers in business.
And now, relying on their firm belief that many adults secretly crave a bowl of their childhood, Magic Spoon has made a complete line of “healthier” cereals available. They are low-carb, high-protein, and have zero sugars. I suppose if you paired it with a nice low-fat plant-based milk, you could almost call this “health food,” but that’s on you.
Tumblr media
Starting out as a DTC company, Magic Spoon wandered into the retail weeds last year by distributing through Target stores. The market test has been so successful that they are now expanding to Walmart, Kroger, and Albertson’s, to the tune of 6800 retail stores.
While this all sounds fantastic at the surface, you better get ready for some sticker shock. While an 18.8-ounce box of Cheerios costs about $5 at Target these days, the much smaller seven-ounce boxes of Magic Spoon clock in at $9 or $10, depending on variety. At the extremes, that comes out to a range from 26.6 cents per ounce to $1.43 per ounce. Ouch! That’s enough to make you pour a little less into your bowl each morning.
Or just make this an occasional treat. And who can eat just one ounce? Heck, when I was a kid, I was slurping down two or three bowls every morning. You could wind up on the poor farm pretty fast if you’re doing that with Magic Spoon.
Magic Spoon is considered a darling among DTC firms, and on multiple levels. First, they identified a niche in a hugely saturated—and even declining—market. And then they quickly transitioned from DTC to also utilizing traditional retail. Of course, whenever you use middlemen, you give up a significant portion of the profit margin between manufacturing cost and full retail.
But then again, in Magic Spoon’s case, they gained 6800 points of access. That alone is hard to do, but even more so in a retail sector controlled by slotting fees that big companies pay to get premier shelf space.
All told, this is one big bowl of success thus far, and as long as they can keep adults paying premium prices to indulge, they are sitting on a gold mine of flakes, Os, and other shapes. Pass the milk—cow, almond, or otherwise—and keep eating. And I confess. I might just try some.

Low Energy/Effort Witchcraft
Are you perpetually busy? Never have any spoons? This might be the post for you. Note that not everything here may be considered low energy or low effort to everyone, and that's okay :)
Carry a crystal around based on what you need. I have a black tourmaline bracelet that absorbs negative vibes throughout the day. I stick it on a selenite slab when I get home to cleanse overnight, then rinse and repeat in the morning.
Put a bay leaf in your wallet to attract money. If you have time, draw a sigil or a $/£/€ on it.
Dedicate anything you drink to your deities if you have any. I dedicate water and black tea to everyone and my favourite raspberry tea to Hathor. Coffee is for Caim.
Enchant your pill case so you remember to take them on time. Enchant your pills to work efficiently. ("Anxiety begone. Ye be banished" on all of my anxiety pills ✌️)
Draw a sigil on your body wash bottle to remove bad vibes or carve a sigil in a bar of soap.
Enchant your moisturizer to repel the evil eye. I fucking love this one.
Incorporate colour magic into the socks you wear (Goths who wear hot pink socks, I'm looking at you).
Enchant your charger so it doesn't break and so you don't lose it. Enchant your phone too while you're at it.
Sorry, I love enchantments--
Uhhhhh
Match those big ol jar candles to different intentions. Burn a cedar candle to cleanse/banish. Burn a cinnamon candle to draw in prosperity. Burn a citrus candle to uplift mood. This one is fantastic for broom closet witches.
Got a humidifier? Fill it up with moon water. You're welcome ;D
Politely ask the spirits of your plants to ward your space. Feed two birds with one scone this way.
Witchy social media. Scrolling on Tumblr and learning something new about witchcraft counts as witchcraft imo. Saving tarot spreads from Instagram for later counts too. Making Pinterest boards for literally anything also counts.
Keep a digital grimoire if doing it on paper costs too many spoons. I have used Google docs & drive in the past but I currently use Notion (You can copy and paste this way!)
If you still want a physical grimoire, print your stuff out and stick it in a binder or glue it in your journal. Boom. Physical grimoire
Listen to witchcraft related videos in the background while you do other tasks or chores in your home
Preparing a meal? Toss in spices that correspond with good health and drawing in positivity, or any other intention you have
Enchant your glasses to help you focus and "read between the lines" or see what wants to remain hidden (this one is a lifesaver at my job)

I love the idea of teenage Malleus hating his new baby brother Silver but slowly falling for him
words cannot express how much I adore that Mal's reaction to seeing a human baby for the first time was "the fuck is this. why does it look like that. gross." (then he immediately got stuck on babysitting duty and the rest is history)
I am SUCH a sucker for that trope of "non-humans being fascinated by normal human behavior", so between that and all the delicious angst going on I was eating VERY well. >:) Malleus being so impressed that two-year-old Silver can walk, because it took him twenty years to stand on two legs! Lilia barging in on the Zigvolts at 2 AM being like "he won't stop crying what do I do"! Lilia trying to feed Silver rats and Malleus being like "...please just stick with what the books say to feed it"! it is all so. chef's kiss.
