If you find a mouse in your Elsinore beer bottle, the brewery will give you a free case.
But what does one do with a free case of mice?
That’s what I keep thinking about. Darren could have free General Mills cereals for life!
Unless Max Von Sydow is running the place…
I don’t know what you all are going on about. Throw it in a pot, add some broth, a potato. Baby, you’ve got a stew going.
You don’t need any of that stuff to enjoy a Bluth family classic, Hot Cheerio Bone Water.
In my vegetarian days I ate quite a few bowls of cheerios. I’d have been devastated to find out there was rat protein/mineral content.

Give 'em to your cats.
My grandkid calls SpaghettiOs: Cheerios soup.
I know it has nothing to do with bones in cereal. Just seemed like the time to tell this little gem.
A couple of months ago I saw one of those “interesting facts” blurbs online. This one said “Technically cereal in milk is soup”.
Can I add my own Cheerios gripe to this thread? I don’t like the fact that the only variety of Cheerios that seems to be sold in Europe is Multigrain Cheerios. The only place I’ve seen the original variety is at specialty American import stores, where they often want upwards of €10 per box. 
You should stick to bananas. They got no bones.
Dude, I don’t see why you are complaining. You have surely seen all the food items advertised nowadays with “Now with x grams of protein”. Shoot, powerbars advertise 20 grams. Bone marrow is nothing but protein! You are ahead of the curve, my friend. Eat your cheerios, get your protein, and run that marathon. I believe in you.
If you still have the bone and the box you should tell them. If nothing else, they need to investigate how it happened. And you’ll probably get an apology and a new free box of Cheerios or two.
Personal story: my wife once got a copy of a professional journal in which, stuck between two pages, was a bloody hypodermic needle (just the metal needle itself, in a splash of blood). Reported it to the publisher to follow up with the printers. Never did find out what the story was there, but it was deeply unpleasant.
It’s been a long time since I’ve said this, but: BAND NAME.
Multigrain and Honey are the usual offerings in the UK but occasionally one can find “oat” Cheerios (which are the same as the original ones) on the regular store shelves. It’s not the yellow box but it’s the same, considerably-less-sweetened stuff.
Bananas have exoskeletons.
Any progress with the request I made for a puke smiley?
I don’t think people got that reference, (Hell, it’s from 1936) but it made me laugh, so in the general duty of all dopers to fight ignorance in all shapes and forms, I feel like I need to educate people. It’s not something anybody needs to know, but when did that ever stop members of the SDMB?
Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you a deep track from the inestimable George Elirick, performing the classic Alan Breeze song: I Like Bananas Because They have No Bones
Kind of reminds me of my brief stint working at a McD’s in college. One day I found a small worm or caterpillar in the bag of shredded Big Mac lettuce. I pointed it out to the shift manager, who said “Let me know if it happens again. We can start charging for extra meat.” 
Oh, god. I hate MickeyDs a little more now.
That puts me in mind of this old urban legend:
Worm Meat Used in McDonald’s Hamburgers?
Ray Kroc, who bought McDonald’s from Mac and Dick McDonald in 1955, added his own assurances: “We couldn’t afford to grind worms into our meat,” he countered. “Hamburger costs a dollar and a half a pound, and night crawlers six dollars.”
