KELLOGG'S TOP FIVE CEREAL PERSONALITIESiii
The Lovey-Dovey Life Lover
Love to top your cereal with fresh berries? 90 per cent of Canadians perceive you as passionate or romantic. Prefer to swap out regular milk for chocolate milk? You may also be seen as happy and friendly.
The Content Conformist
While only eight per cent of Canadians perceive someone who eats cereal with milk and fresh fruit as daring, the good news is (bowl half full!) 72 per cent see you as happy or outgoing.
The Hot-Headed Hot Shot
Do you start your day by adding a dash of cinnamon or spice to your cereal? Uh-oh, more than four out of five Canadians say you are bossy, contradictory and go against the grain.
The Dynamic Daredevil
Wish you were quirky or daring? Well, if you dress up your cereal with coconut shavings or cacao nibs and pair it with a milk alternative, 63 per cent of Canadians say you are just that!
The Nutty Know-It-All
Top your cereal with nuts and nothing else? Survey says…you may be nutty! In fact, 33 per cent of Canadians perceive you as bossy, while 25 per cent of Canadians think of you as quirky.
A BOWLFUL OF MEANING
In addition to the top five cereal personalities, Canadians surveyed also linked specific cereal toppings and bases, such as milk, milk alternatives and yoghurt, to particular personality characteristics.
"At Kellogg, we love cereal — it's in our DNA. And, we know Canadians love it just as much as we do," says Lores Tomé, Director, Communications & Corporate Affairs, Kellogg Canada. "It seemed only fitting that we raise a bowl and spoon to celebrate National Cereal Day in a fun and uniquely-Kellogg way."
