PISS IN YOUR CHEERIOS

IN YOUR CHEERIOS--2,820 Google hits, 2,320 Google Groups hits
IN HIS CHEERIOS--193 Google hits, 306 Google Groups hits
IN HER CHEERIOS--46 Google hits, 96 Google Groups hits

   I think I remember this from the late 1970s or early 1980s.  The brand
name "Cheerios" helps.  I haven't seen piss on my "Lucky Charms."  Or "Total"
piss.
   So people actually piss on Cheerios?  Don't Cheerios go better with milk?
