This week's episode covers a favourite of all school age people, whether you're going to kindergarden or college - CEREAL!  We discuss healthy vs. sugary cereal, The Road To Wellville and how cold cereals were invented and a certain cereal bar that seems like a hippy/beatnik place but has a very different agenda behind it.  Enjoy!

This weeks episode is a rerun of our May 18th 2009 show about Canadian breakfast featuring The Rainbow in Oshawa and Hill's in Orillia. We're currently working on a cereal episode and need to do some further research before we put voice to recorder. Also, we might as well upload this one again since podbean seems to have misplaced the original ep.

We greatly apologize for the lateness of our 50th episode, but it couldn't be helped since Sheila spent all of last week in Toronto working security for the G20 Summit.  Here's a great episode for you though, of a rural Ontario tradition - Haugen's BBQ!  They have amazing rotisserie chicken, and are a hub for many car cruises.
