It's always had a bear of one kind or another on it. When I was a kid, the bear's name was Sugar Bear. Now I think he's just a generic cartoon bear. It was (and is) a Post cereal.
Kellogg's makes an identical cereal that used to be called Sugar Smacks and had a seal on the box. Evidently, honey sounds healthier to old hippies than sugar does, so the cereal is now called Honey Smacks, and its box has a frog on it. |

Golden honey, golden sugar, yes. Tasty collocations. :)
By the way, golden bear seems to be highly popular in the modern world

Yes, prezbucky. But not only to a true masochist. :)
The problem with the first version is that it makes great emphasis on the people’s similarity and doesn’t take into account their actual difference.
Just rephasing the popular proverb: 'what's good for the goose is not good for the tiger'. :)
That's true, isn't it?
There were lots of situations in my life when people kindly treated me within the first version of rule (in fact, just making the direct transfer of their own wishes), but, in fact, often just paving by their good intentions the very famous road…
I don’t want to be ‘well’-treated by the first version of the rule. _________________ It’s impossible to learn swimming without entering the water… |

Hi Tamara!
I think there are some other dependency(dependencies) as the goose possibly might be good for the tiger. :shock:
