I second the motion! It is much more fun to guess than to enter labels.

Looks like our draftee is overdue for his physical. Perhaps the draft
board should refer his file to the dodger patrol.

It has been a week, we need a volunteer, quick before I enter a very strange
label from China which nobody will be able to guess. (Total fat 62 mg,
calories from fat 0 - the new miracle food?)

Hm, I guess I was drafted at some point. Sorry, draft notices
aren't binding unless sent by registered mail (the old-fashioned
kind, not email). Well, *maybe* I'll enter something this
morning, maybe not. If keesan beats me to it, so be it. I
shan't complain.
(I'm the only person in the known universe who still says "shan't".)

Not true!! I do, too. Also, re: 62 mg fat, 0 fat calories, fat has 9
calories to the gram, so 62mg would be better expressed as 0.062g, which would
give slightly over 1/2 calorie.

Rounded to the nearest calore that is 1 calorie. Remmers, I can wait. Shan't
is British English, are you British in background?

Nope, not at all. Born and raised in Indiana.
Okay, hm... I'll have to go peruse the pantry contents.

(is there a difference in meaning between "shan't" and "won't", or are tehy
interchangeable?)

Shall is British, will American. In primary school in Boston they tried to
teach us I shall, you will, he will (or was it you shall?). Shan't and won't
are the negatives for these.

(Hopefully His Snordship will soon emerge from the pantry. There might
be plenty of volunteers for the rescue team, but i wouldn't count on any
of them coming back real soon...)

Vitamin enriched something, I would bet. Those numbers look awfully close
to each other. Sugar-coated cornflakes with vitamins?

Yep, it's a vitamin enriched substance that is often consumed for
breakfast. Not cereal though.

Since I have no idea what sorts of sugary substances Americans are currently
consuming for breakfast, I will let others guess the details.

It appears to be some sort of powdered / syrup breakfast drink mix.
Dunno what.

Not coffee cake. #209 and #210 are on the right track.
