I've been extremely disappointed in recent months to find that just as I fell in love with the banana variety of Honey Bunches of Oats, I stopped finding it in stores. I decided to write to the manufacturer. This was their response:

I've heard of brake lights not working, but not brake lights that won't turn off! Last evening, that very thing happened... After a little bit of consultation of the Oracle of Knowledge (Google), I discovered that it probably had something to do with the brake pedal switch thingy. (That's the ...
