Cereal Business!!

I got this idea....it is basically a custom built cereal that you make and order online. Sort of like subway for cereals...What do you think!

any other foods you think I could sell online...maybe not food but something else!

I think this could be really big if you aimed it towards healthy cereals. I don't think those looking for a sugar fix would go through the trouble of custom ordering their cereal.

However, for those on a diet and need certain vitamins and nutrients, this could be a really good opportunity.

Its great that you came up with an 'idea', but have you figured out how you are actually going to do it and the costs associated with making individual cereals? Maybe its just not feasible. Plus something to consider, food sold in the U.S. is regulated by the FDA.

My sister is highly allergic to wheat and gluten, maybe one of your target customer groups could be allergy people. Specially made. Just a thought.
