Joey Votto Has His Own Cereal, And Of Course They’re Called "VottOs"

Joey Votto Has His Own Cereal, And Of Course They're Called "VottOs" Reds slugger and 2010 National League MVP Joey Votto is endorsing a new cereal available at Cincinnati-area Kroger stores cleverly called VottOs.

Actually, "new" is a bit of a stretch. They're the same toasted oats that were sold under the Ochocinco name until the Bengals went 4-and-12 in 2010 and the former Chad Johnson sought new employment. What does Joey Votto's cereal taste like? Well, they'd be Grrrrr-eat if he played for the Tigers, but since he's a Red they taste like Communism.
