Hell hath no fury like a stoner scorned, dude

Well, in "whodathunkit" news today, it seems Kellogg's reputation has taken a hit since they dropped Michael Phelps after a photo surfaced of the Olympic champ smoking a doobie.

Okay, actually it was a bong. I just don't get the chance to say "doobie" often in a blog. Seize the day and all that jazz.

Anyhoo, according to Adage.com, Kellogg's popularity fell to 86 after standing at an impressive No. 9 once they dropped the Phelpsters. The rankings are compiled by Vanno, a website that follows 5,500 companies and compiles its index by capturing "gossip, news, opinion and personal insight about companies and their reputations."

If you think that's bad, Kellogg's rep only dropped seven points after its peanut butter recalls. Ouch.

Stoners 1. Kellogg 0.

Now pass the Cheetos, man.
