Trix Cereal: An Ongoing Struggle

One of America’s basic principles is equal opportunity for the consumer. It is atrocious that the rabbit has been denied Trix Cereal since 1978. The adult humanoid rabbit should be able to buy Trix Cereal at any store that has it in stock, holding his head up high and in broad daylight, with no disguises necessary.
Just as a kid can go to the supermarket and buy pina colada mix, that rabbit should be able to buy some Trix Cereal. In every Trix commercial the rabbit has to go to extreme measures, like dressing up in a disguise, to get his hands on some Trix Cereal. And then when he finally succeeds, right before he takes a bite of the “raspberry red, lemony lemon, orangey orange, wildberry blue, grapity purple and watermelon” deliciousness the kids snatch the cereal away. This act is plain mean, unfair and frankly un-American. These children are contradicting one of America’s core beliefs. From the days of preschool children are taught that “sharing is caring.” These kids obviously were not raised with America’s moral standard.
America takes fairness seriously. Civil rights activists have battled countless times for decades to prevent things like this from occurring. In not so distant history African Americans were denied access to eat at restaurants even here in our nation’s capital, but due to action, America came to realize how unfair this was. Some people think that the rabbit doesn’t deserve any Trix because he tries to trick the children, but a more objective eye would see that the rabbit is just taking necessary action to achieve his goal.
America has come a long way in civil rights but unfairness still exists. All demographic groups should be treated fairly, no matter how small that group may be. No, there are not many humanoid rabbits of adult age in America, but that doesn’t make their desires any less important. This Rabbit deserves some Trix Cereal.
