“I got my stomach doing crunches—usually either Nestlé or Captain”

“I got my stomach doing crunches—usually either Nestlé or Captain” (that is, Nestlé Crunch chocolate bars and Cap’n Crunch cereal) is a jocular statement that has been printed on an ecard. The joke has been cited on Twitter since January 9, 2014.
     
Some forms of the joke are found earlier. “A mere two hours before I talk crunches with @FatLossQuickie http://tinyurl.com/cj228g Not the Nestle or Captain variety” was cited on Twitter on April 29, 2009.
