Well, there's an English side and French side to every box. Depending on
which side is facing you at breakfast, you could either be eating cereal or
c�r�ale, avec 7 vitamines et aliments.

That's because Canada is supposed to have two official languages, with all
major labels written in both.

It isn't necessarily *wrong* to have boxes facing French-side out, but it
annoys people sometimes. No doubt troublemakers in Quebec do the same thing
in reverse.

Vive le revolution! ;)
