Un corn-flake en forme d'Irlande

Yes, you read that right. An Englishman from Cornwall in south-west England has put up for sale on Ebay a cornflake he found in his cereal box, which is said to be in the shape of the island of Ireland.

Selling price: 112 euros!

Of course, this cornflake has real geographical similarities with Ireland, even if Ulster isn’t quite the same size, and the Kerry and Cork Peninsulas are almost invisible.

It didn’t take much for the Brit to decide to put his find on ebay. The latter has also put a lot of thought into his sales pitch, describing “this cereal flake is as new (not used with milk) and unpackaged. This cereal may even bring good luck to its owner.“.

Although the offer is already creating a buzz on the web, many are sceptical about the sales chances of a simple cornflake. All bets are off!
