From Chanel suckers to LV-inspired cupcakes, fashion labels and food have been teaming up in unusual ways. But this trend may be headed in a direction that even the most brand-beset consumers couldn't have comprehended.

In a special ad campaign that gears towards a consumers need for comfort, General Mills has brought back its old cereal box designs. Target shoppers may have noticed that Cheerios, Honey Nut Cheerios, Cocoa Puffs, Lucky Charms, and Trix are sporting retro boxes taken directly from the company's archives.
The promotion has made me nostalgic and I can't help but think of the cereal I enjoyed as a child.

We recently received a box of Archer Farms Vanilla Spice Squares, and although the cool part is the new cereal packaging, we're finding them irresistible as well.
The box sits on my desk and we snack on them throughout the day. My pal Allison says they taste like Christmas, and I would have to agree.

A friend recently told me he occasionally eats cereal for dinner. His girlfriend thinks he's crazy but I personally don't find it that unusual. Sometimes a nice bowl of cereal hits the spot, especially when you get home late and need a little chow.
