Fans of Lucky Charms, did you know that you could purchase an entire bag of the marshmallows sans-cereal? Well, you can, and boy, do we feel bad for that poor bloke whose job it is to separate the oats from the clovers and rainbows. Oh, and while we're on the subject, how well you really know your favorite bowl of breakfast munchies? Sure, you've gotten fond of them over time, but they've never introduced you to their parents, or heck, even told you where they're from.

It's all a bit... suspicious. Isn't it?

Luckily, the ever adorable Annie Colbert and the cheeky Matt Silverman are bringing you 5 facts you probably didn't know about cereal. With a cameo by Cap'n Crunch, of course.

Check out the quick breakdown below, then watch the video!
