Adjacent to This Complete Breakfast: Difference between revisions

{{trope}}

{{quote|''"I am curious about the expression, "Part of this complete breakfast." The way it comes up is, my 5-year-old will be watching TV cartoon shows in the morning, and they'll show a commercial for a children's compressed breakfast compound such as "Froot Loops" or "Lucky Charms, " and they always show it sitting on a table next to a some actual food such as eggs, and the announcer always says: "Part of this complete breakfast." Don't they really mean, [[Trope Namer|"Adjacent to this complete breakfast]], " or "On the same table as this complete breakfast"? And couldn't they make essentially the same claim if, instead of Froot Loops, they put a can of shaving cream there, or a dead bat?"''|[[Dave Barry]], [http://www.miamiherald.com/2010/10/03/1845203/tips-for-writers.html#ixzz1WKpIsczl "Tips for Writers"]}}
