- Kellogg's CEO Ripped For 'Let Them Eat Cereal' Comment

Hey again, no problem at all! I don't disagree with you -- I've been known to eat a bowl of Special K with a banana for dinner out of convenience more than poverty. I think my father invented the "fourth meal"... he would often end the day with a bowl of corn flakes. I only select TOTN items that have a good number of articles written about the subject. If you search for "cereal for dinner" you'll see what I mean. I think his comments just came off as insensitive given he's a high-salaried CEO.

I haven't watched The Daily Show since he left. I liked Trevor Noah but it just wasn't as compelling. But I'll check out Stewart's return for sure. Smart of Comedy Central. Everyone has bills to pay, right?

Hi Virginia, thanks for reading and for the comment. Checking how flat the rear seats fold is literally the first thing I do in every single model I test drive, so I'm with you! I'll keep searching and will keep you posted.

I hear you. It bothered me more when the Bolt first came out. I think maybe I'm not as annoyed by it after driving it for a week and enjoying the heated seats and steering wheel, which I use a heck of a lot more than the power liftgate.

Tasha, what is your source on that information? It's incorrect. EVs are actually being driven more than ICE engines. Most EV makers are offering an 8 to 10 year warranty and there is no restriction on how many miles you can drive per year.
