I like them too, but what kind of idiocy would it take to pay $110 for a box of cereal?
They're good, but not THAT good!
If Post drops them for low volume, they'll be a private label manufacturer grabbing it & running because there is a set market with no name brand competition.
It's not like they're going away.
$110 a box? Dumb!
