Dear God, this finally ends; I can finally crown a winner...but not until I eat at least six more bowls of cereal...which is proving exceedingly difficult.

(#1) Count Chocula vs. (#12) Chocolate Lucky Charms
Another no contest. I don't know if some of these cereals are winning so easily outright or am I just too lazy to care any longer. Once again, Count Chocula tasted better overall and looked better. There is something really unsettling about the colorful marshmallows in Lucky Charms against the dark brown grain cereal. I found Count Chocula to be significantly less dichotomous. I will give credit to CLC, it created the greatest milk of all 16 cereals. That being said, everything about CLC (when compared to Chocula) made it seem like it was just trying too hard. Anyways, congratulations Count, you've done it again and marched confidently to the finals.

(#3) Reese's Peanut Butter Puffs vs. (#10) Oreo-Os
I thought Oreo-Os would take the heavily favored Reese's to an overtime game. I was wrong. Reese's PB Puffs played a great game and although Oreo-Os did their best, they just couldn't stay with the veteran. When eating my 7th bowl of Oreo-Os I finally noticed something: Oreo-Os isn't really chocolate. It's the taste of Oreo-O which may seem like chocolate, but it's really not. The mutually beneficial chocolate and peanut butter taste of Reese's was too good compared to the taste of Oreo-Os. Also, Oreo-Os also changed my milk into a purplish color. I am surprised I never noticed this before.

(#1) Count Chocula vs. (#3) Reese's Peanut Butter Puffs
After eating all this cereal, I've noticed something about the peanut butter vs. chocolate match-ups: When both cereals are really good (like this case) it just comes down to preference. In this case, I just preferred the chocolate and marshmallow combo to the chocolate peanut-butter combo. If I did the same match-up in a month, it may be different. Although, I think it says something about these two cereals that I could still eat and enjoy them, even though I was ready to throw away all of the other cereals.

Winner: Count Chocula!
