Changes: Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs

Revision as of 18:21, 13 December 2008

CFSB — The first appearance of Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs.

Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs is a pre-sweetened, ready-to-eat breakfast cereal that Calvin eats every morning. He usually eats several bowls of it, especially while watching Saturday morning television. Calvin cheerfully admits to Hobbes that the cereal makes him hyperactive and attention-deficit; Hobbes quips to Calvin that he can "hear his heart racing from here."

Unlike Calvin, Hobbes is not fond of the cereal and usually ends up having toast instead. He dislikes the extreme sugar quantity and finds it sickening when Calvin manages to eat 2-3 bowls at a time. After Calvin made his own commercial about Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs, Hobbes was not impressed at all.

In one strip, it was mistakenly labeled as "Crunchy Sugar Bombs".

Given its name, the cereal is obviously made out of large quantities of sugar, as even Hobbes could not eat a bowl, virtually gagging on a single spoonful. This isn't a problem for Calvin; he admits to adding additional sugar to the cereal. It is mentioned by him that they are "crunchy on the outside-chewy on the inside", and turn the milk into a chocolate brown colour, as well as making the milk rather viscid. Calvin also mentioned that there were no natural ingredients "to get in the way of the rich, fudgy taste".

As most cereals have, Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs have included toys such as decoder rings and beanies. Calvin once waited weeks to receive his beanie in the mail, often daydreaming about flying it and rushing home just to ask if it arrived. After his near-failed attempt to assemble the beanie, he became outraged at the fact that it would not fly.
