Benjaminugget

For a special holiday treat, I brought home a big box of Fruit Loops for the kids.  (Oh, who am I kidding.  Also for me.)  This morning as Benjamin ate and pondered his bowl of rainbow delight, he asked me:

"Where do they get Fruit Loops?"
"From the store." I replied.
"I mean, how do they get them?"
"You mean how do they make Fruit Loops?"
"Yes.  Do they catch a parrot?"
"Because of the picture of the bird on the box?" I ask, suppressing a smile.
"No.  Because they are made of many colours, just like a parrot.  Do they catch a parrot and cut it open and cut it up and make Fruit Loops?"
