Never attempt to yell at your kids while downing a bowl of frosted shredded wheat.
Think how pissed off Ms. Susan Linn would be that I had cereal AND yelled at my kids at the same time.
It would be the ‘shredded’ quality of the cereal that is the problem. See, when you inhale to achieve the correct volume of voice for yelling is when you will also inhale the pieces of shredded wheat.
You’ll spend the next 15 minutes mimicking a cat trying to cough up a hairball. Believe me.

Oh I SO wish you had a video clip to accompany this !!
Right, and never eat cracker and try to whistle either !
I have to know , did the boys laugh or did they come and pound you on the back in an effort to help?
Excellent public service announcement.
Oh-ho pretty funny! I have done that before- not with shredded wheat but with… can’t remember.
Guess that’s why my folks TRIED to teach me not to talk with my mouth full.
Choking hazard.
Can I just say, if you switch over to the ULTIMATE (that would be the Fiber One) NEVER abuse it. Stick to the 1/2 cup serving. In fact, MEASURE the sucker. Or you will PAY. You will bloat up to the size of Canada and then, well like four days later, you’ll deliver a beluga from your ass.
Oh, ack! Shredded wheat flakes are sharp!
Ok, not only did this post kill me but then I read OTJ’s comment and now I am lost. I feel as though air has been sucked directly from my lungs. Oy.
Wow…warning heeded!
My mom makes these cream puffs every Easter, and always tops them with powdered sugar and cocoa. No matter how much she warns people, someone inevitably breathes in as they are taking a bite…and the cough fest begins. It’s like an annual thing now…it’s not Easter without someone choking on cocoa powder!
