It looks like a chip. I wonder why nobody has invented bran chips? Chips that are actually good for you! They could grind up the bran and mash it into formed shapes and sell them in a can, like Pringles. Add different flavouring, like honey-graham or vanilla-almond.. or even the traditional salty chip flavour. It would be great! How many people would eat their daily recommended serving of fiber if they could eat it in chip form?!
That big bran thing on the other page reminds me of the sheets of cardboard the dry-cleaners use to tuck inside my father's dress shirts.
I, Topanga of Nova Scotia, being of sound mind and body hereby claim the above idea as mine original idea and forbid ANY corporation from making bran chips in any way, shape or form unless they sign a contract with my which would make me rich, like those guys on Shark Tank.
So let it be written.. so let it be done.

Hi Jorge, I really don't mean to spam your topic but I was searching for a way to contact you privately but being new to blogspot I wasn't able to find a way. Thing is, I recently did a drawing of you that I would love for you to see. I hope you like it: http://zindyzone.blogspot.com/2009/11/making-of-jorge-garcia-as-hurley.html All the best, Zindy
The one you pointed to is a big huge flake, wonder how it made it past inspection. You should definitely look at Zindy's post. It is a very cool drawing. Maybe you could even put it on your blog.
Yeah Zindy that's a sweet drawing. It came up in my google alerts when I was checking my emails on my phone. I hadn't gotten a chance to check it out for real until now.
By the way, have you seen this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwICmPYCXdM) video? It's a Lost parody of "We Like Sportz" (The Lonely Island, Andy Samberg's band!)
Hope you don't mind me linking to it (I didn't make it though) but I thought you might like it! The "I <3 my shihzu" shirt makes an appearance in it :)
It's the little things in life that keep us going, isn't it?:) Hey, I checked out that drawing Zindy did. It's pretty amazing. That expression she found is great!
Hola Jorge! Nosotros somos unos alumnos españoles, fans de la serie LOST. Tú eres nuestro personaje favorito y nos gustas mucho! Tu blog es muy divertido y nos reímos mucho leyéndolo. Nos gustaría que nos comentases en nuestro blog, sería un placer. Un saludo de Rosa y Dani
What flakes you have there, my boy! Muahahahaha! Just kidding, Jorge! Thanks for your great posts with terrific pics! Looking forward to seeing you on LOST this season! Oh, the wait is killin' me! LOL! HUGSSSSS
Don't really have anything clever to say about large flakes, but I do want to extend a big 'mahalo' to you and 'Famous' Wally Amos for the Hawaii Public Library PSA.
Jorge, you have just given me the biggest laugh of my week! Thank you! I am the owner of the "World's Largest Bran Flake" photo over on www.youpublish.com.
I read through all the comments here on your blog and just couldn't stop laughing.
We truly found that bran flake in a box of Raisin Bran. The hand in the picture is my son at age 12. It is a better gauge of the size of the flake to look at 20 oz box that is beside the flake. That box is the box the flake came from. It isn't an imposter flake, it isn't a crepe or any of the other fun & funny ideas you all thought of.
I have never heard of someone feeling "oogy and bad". Not sure I want to know what that feels like.

It also looks a lot like New Jersey! You should totally send the photo of you preparing to eat the flake to the magazine Weird NJ. They always publish pictures of food that looks like New Jersey. http://www.weirdnj.com/
I once had an 'x' land on top of my bowl of cheerios.
ReplyDeleteThis is exciting if you, you know, get excited about big cereal flakes.
So...do you like stuff?

You heard it hear first.
you flake looks tastier. that big one looks iffy. I wouldn't risk it.
ReplyDeleteyour* flake.
ReplyDeletebtw you should check out the site that Maria from ryanandmaria.wordpress.com sent you about Michael Emerson, it's pretty good!
Dude, you have too much time on your hands (for now at least!)
ReplyDeletehmmmm, that huge raisin bran flake looks suspicious.
ReplyDeleteto me it looks like some started eating their wheat flour crepe and then folded it and thought it looked like a bran flake.
i think it's a fake!

Yikes! Wow, that is one big flake!!

ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure that the hand in that other picture is just really tiny. Your flake is probably much bigger! :P
ReplyDeleteAlso, I mailed you something today. I hope you get it.
:) Roxanna
That drawing by Zindy is phenomenal.
ReplyDeleteAlso, that pic of the giant flake made me feel all oogy and bad about life in general.
dang, you could use that 'flake' to dip salsa with..
ReplyDeleteJorge,
ReplyDeleteWow what a coincidence I just lost my scab collection. And I had one just that size and shape. :P
Yeah Zindy that's a sweet drawing. It came up in my google alerts when I was checking my emails on my phone. I hadn't gotten a chance to check it out for real until now.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful drawing of you by Zindy! Your eyes are already very expressive and even moreso in the drawing.
ReplyDeleteLove seeing you just as you are. :)
How's the herb garden coming along?
hum!!! me dio hambre!!!
ReplyDeletemaybe bran flakes start out as huge bran-blankets and go thru a mangle or something.
ReplyDeleteHow many calories do think your flake was?
I DARE you to make one of these:

you're gonna need to buy a massive cup for the tea though...
I am agree with Beth!!! I think what is something that is not from Planet Earth!
ReplyDeleteDang, that's huge.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, have you seen this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwICmPYCXdM) video? It's a Lost parody of "We Like Sportz" (The Lonely Island, Andy Samberg's band!)

that "other" flake is an imposter!
ReplyDeleteJorge,
ReplyDeleteI just love coming here to see what new and funny stories you have to share. I think you are awesome!!!!
Hi Jorge,
ReplyDeleteGreetings from Madrid!
First, congratulations on your blog, it’s very interesting!
Amazing you what your flake, I still I have not found any that big, it's great!
Oh man, that other large bran flake you linked too kind of creeped me out!

ReplyDeleteThat giant flake looks like someone's sunburn. Sorry, had to say it. Also, now I can't get the image of George Hamilton out of my head.
ReplyDeleteafter seeing the topic title- I thought, "AH he knows me!" Give Beth big hugs from Vegas.
ReplyDeleteooooohhh it's hugeee!!!

Hey I heard you got to meet my friend Colin last week on the set!
ReplyDeleteIt was so great for him to be able to do that and so great that you everything came together like it did for him!
Thanks for the support of his fight!

Hello.
ReplyDeleteI have a flake that measures 5.5 cm.
Is that large compared to the one you
found? Are you using centimeters in your
picture?
MPH
I found a 5.5 cm flake in my cereal!
