1,000,000 calories + no prize = no shoplifting

Shes so right. Why would you even buy cereal if it had no free prize inside?

How come cereals marketed as 'healthy' never have prizes inside? That would really be the ultimate.

the healthy cereals don't want to get jacked.

anymore there aren't any 'unhealthy cereals'. Most of those labeled as unhealthy just have higher amounts of sugar.

they say "unhealthy" on the box?

now, that's some seriously counterintuitive advertising.

Its kinda the same way cigerette packets have huge cancer warnings on the front now, but people buy them anyway.

Some of the warning labels on cigarettes actually make me want to smoke more.

Like which ones?

Unless there was a label that said, "Don't smoke cigarettes; smoking cigarettes is not cool; smoking cigarettes does not make you look cool.", and it would somehow work as reverse advertising, I don't know of any warning label that does not induce disgust in smoking cigarettes.
