Pilnick said this during an interview, and he explained that cereal is more affordable than other foods. The company wants to promote this idea through advertising. When reporters asked him if this idea could cause problems, Pilnick said that cereal was becoming more popular. He explained that many people eat cereal not just for breakfast but also for dinner or as a snack.
