During an interview on a Boston sports radio show earlier this week, New England Patriots Quarterback Tom Brady was asked about Alex Guerrero, a friend, nutrition coach and business partner .

According to a CNN Money reports, Guerrero was the subject of a recent Boston Magazine article that described him as a "glorified snake-oil salesman," for making questionable claims about the nutritional products he sells.

This didn’t sit well with the QB who launched a return attack on Coca Cola and Kellogg’s and at one point even questioning if Frosted Flakes was really food!

Kellogg's response, “Cereal is a delicious and nutritious breakfast. Numerous studies show that a cereal breakfast is associated with lower [body mass index, a measure of obesity] in both children and adults…..a bowl of Frosted Flakes with skim milk has only 150 calories”.

Millions of people love frosted flakes, probably more than the number of people who love Brady. So Tom, don’t mess with Tony The Tiger. You’re good Brady, but frosted Flakes are ….GREAT! The cereal is also the second most popular brands in the country.
