Cereal Box Typo Sends Callers to Sex Line

Peace Cereal, a company in Oregon, has ordered new packaging for the 7 of 13 types of cereal that they sell. When callers called the 800 number listed on the cereal boxes, instead of reaching Golden Temple of Oregon, callers were greeted by, "Do you love sex?"

If you have this brand of cereal at home, you may want to scrape off the company phone number......

BIG OOPS!

If it starts with a "G," it's all Good!
Dusty W. Apr 3, 2009, 9:14pm EDT
That'd be a great way to start the day.

"Mmmm... these tasty oat crunches are delicious. I think I'll call them up and say what a good job they've done..."

A few minutes later...

"I gotta buy more of this stuff, they have the best customer service staff EVER!"
Renita P. Apr 3, 2009, 10:42pm EDT
Whoops!!!
Gina M. Apr 3, 2009, 10:44pm EDT

Although the company probably isn't laughing. I wonder if they ever heard of Quality Control?

Oooops.
Hmmm. I see they have true issues huh??

Thanks for the comments you left at my articles a couple of weeks ago.

I have been away from Gather for several weeks due to family commitments, but I am back now. I hope at the same capacity, but everytime I say that, something else happens and I am gone from Gather again.

Think someone lost their job? Probably not. I have never heard of this cereal brand.
Dana H. Apr 6, 2009, 11:41pm EDT
I haven't heard of that cereal before. Wonder if someone lost their job over that one?
Beverly T. Apr 9, 2009, 2:20am EDT
Makes you wonder, doesn't it?

Stopping by to wish you a blessed Easter!

You never know, it might make their brand of cereal even more popular :-) and I wanted to thank you for the compliment on my icon
Nyota *Star* Apr 19, 2009, 11:23am EDT

Nurse Nancy S. May 6, 2009, 8:46pm EDT
That is too funny. Maybe not for those with the boxes, but for me it is.
Jodie B. May 9, 2009, 10:34pm EDT
