Phelps won’t be on Wheaties box

Vince Jones Eagle

When writing an authoritative column it is best to check facts to ensure accuracy.

Braunholtz states “The Wheaties executives must hope I’ll feel a similar pride while eating from a cereal box celebrating … (Michael Phelps’) achievements” in his column “That Olympic pride” published in the Vail Daily on Aug. 22.

The fact is, Phelps has decided to pass on the Wheaties box offer; instead he will appear on Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes or Corn Flakes boxes.



Doubtful that Wheaties executives will be happy when any of us purchase a Phelps commemorative box of Kellogg’s products.
