Cuckoos are well known for laying their eggs in the nests of other birds, called brood parasitism. Some are non-obligate brood parasites, meaning they will put their eggs in nests of the same species or keep them in their own nests.

The species' binomial name is derived from the Latin cuculus (the cuckoo) and canorus (melodious; from canere, meaning to sing). The cuckoo family gets its common name and genus name by onomatopoeia for the call of the male common cuckoo.

Cocoa Puffs debuted in the U.S. in 1958. At that time, it was America's only chocolate-flavored ready-to-eat cereal. It combined everybody's favorite flavor with crispy-puffed corn for a delicious taste.

To be called “chocolate,” a product must contain at least 10 percent actual cacao. Otherwise it can only be called “chocolatey,” which is why labels on cereals like Cocoa Puffs have to use that descriptor. That means those little black lumps are mainly made of, well, something else.
