cereal boxes

Pantry shelf rectangles

Cereal boxes are the cardboard containers that hold breakfast cereal, typically featuring colorful graphics, mascots, and nutritional information.

They're a fixture of grocery store aisles and kitchen pantries.

The backs of cereal boxes traditionally include games, puzzles, or reading material—making them iconic companions to solo breakfasts: I spent my childhood mornings reading cereal boxes.
