Dear Post Cereal,

I would like to point out a gross misrepresentation on the packaging of your cereal Honey Bunches of Oats.  There is a large red banner across the top of the box with the claim that the cereal is “Family Size”.  I haven’t really seen any other markings on the box to define the size of a family but I have to tell you, it doesn’t work for my family.  You see, my wife and I have SIX children, but we are also helping out with my wife’s sisters.  One sister has moved in with us from Indiana with her SIX children and the other has come from Utah with ONE child.  This brings our grand total to SEVENTEEN people in our FAMILY.  Our newborn won’t be eating any solid foods for a while but as you can see in the photo below, we’ve got lots of mouths to feed.

Please keep us in mind as you prepare your products that are created and designated as “Family Size”.  If you would like to contact us to test out any of these “Family Size” products we would be more than happy to give you a full survey of consumption and general level of satisfaction.

Thank you,

Spencer L. Brinkerhoff III and the B-17s

I worked with Riester to create a mascot for the California Dept of Recycling.  Terralever did the programing to make an application for Facebook so that people can track their carbon footprint and learn more about recycling.  After doing the character design, I did the backgrounds, animaiton, and sound design for this short.  You can learn more on Facebook or on the Bottles & Cans website.  I don’t have any control over the playback of this cartoon because it’s linked from it’s source.  To see the cartoon jump to the next page.
