First it was IFB "doctors" who didn't really earn their Doctorate, and now it's captains who may not really be captains.
It appears that Cap'n Crunch isn't really a captain, but in reality is only a Commander.
The food blog FoodBeast earlier this week noted that the Cap'n's three stripes on his cuffs signifies a commander --not a captain, as noted by four stripes.
Oh no!! Say it ain't so. Is there nothing sacred anymore?
Even the U.S. Navy has weighed in on the matter. A Navy spokeswoman, Lt. Cmdr. Sarah Flaherty, is quoted as saying, “You are correct that Cap’n Crunch appears to be wearing the rank of a U.S. Navy commander. Oddly, our personnel records do not show a ‘Cap’n Crunch’ who currently serves or has served in the Navy.â€
However, it is unclear as to exactly what Navy the Cap'n is actually a member of.
What does the Cap'n have to say about this brewing controversy? He recently chimed in on Twitter, saying, "So much fuss about my name. O, be some other name. What's in a name? That which we call Cap'n Crunch, by any other name would taste as sweet."
