It's an old (80's, I think) commercial. "This security guard (or whatever) sees everything in the store... but can he see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch?" "Is it... [insert wrong answer here]?" "No, because it's got cinnamon and sugar swirls in every bite!" See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3B5e4ugrMv4
The joke is, it was a lame, "totally radical" way to market to kids. Throwing it onto something completely serious is supposed to create the sort of dissonance that makes people laugh from sheer bewilderment.

Well, thanks. But at the same time, shame for you for making an old american joke like that. Even if it's funny!

Not that it matters, but it was actually from the 90s.
