Is an AR-15 an AK-47?
Fock NO! Cereal is Cereal. Oatmeal is Oatmeal. Now...both are breakfast foods. As both AR and AK are assault rifles. Does that mean they are the same thing? No. |

I guess we should add this:
If someone asked you, 'hey what kind of cereal do you have', would your reply be something like, cheerios, rice krispies, and oatmeal? Or would you consider cereal only as typical boxed breakfast foods? |

Co Co wheats, grits, and oatmeal ARE NOT cereal. lol..... PO-TA-TO or PO-TAT-O [:)] |

Oatmeal? Absolutely a cereal.
Cornmeal is a cereal product, but not cereal in the breakfast sense. |
