The word swill brings two thoughts to mind.  It's what pigs eat, since what they're fed is usually a conglomeration of things humans won't eat all mixed together.  It also refers to cheap liquor or bad bear and describes what people do when they drink those items, sort of like pigs.

At least no modern marketing experts have tried to playfully name a product Swill.

I presume they also don't like cereal, which is nothing more than a cold porridge.

You got that right @drpaladin!  No matter what the manufacturer does to their cereals, I don't like them either.  😄
