“Kids these days are spoiled. When I was growing up, Cheerios only had one flavor, and that flavor was paper”

Cheerios cereal now comes in many flavors. This was posted on X/Twitter by RunwayDan on June 1, 2014, and has been printed on many images:
 
“You spoiled brats with your fancy Cheerios flavors. When I was a kid Cheerios had one flavor, and that flavor was paper.”
 
An ecard by Someecards was printed in 2015:
 
“Kids these days are spoiled. When I was growing up, Cheerios only had one flavor, and that flavor was paper.”
   
One version showing Statler and Waldorf, a pair of elderly Muppet Show characters known for their cantankerous opinions, was posted on iFunny on October 1, 2020:
 
“YOU SPOILED BRATS WITH YOUR FANCY CHEERIOS FLAVORS. WHEN WE WERE KIDS CHEERIOS HAD ONE FLAVOR AND THAT FLAVOR WAS PAPER.”
 
 
Wikipedia: Cheerios
Cheerios is a brand of cereal manufactured by General Mills in the United States and Canada, consisting of pulverized oats in the shape of a solid torus. In some countries, including the United Kingdom, Cheerios is marketed by Cereal Partners under the Nestlé brand; in Australia and New Zealand, Cheerios is sold as an Uncle Tobys product. It was first manufactured in 1941 as CheeriOats.
