Family breakfast @ market

I'm buying veggies in the outdoor market in Taiwan. After buying a few things, I take my bag back to my family's round, wooden table, which is also in the market. It's covered with cereal boxes of every kind, and lots of other snacks. Most of the boxes of the same have been set together, so I take the initiative to distribute things around the table more evenly. My family arrives. Dad tells me, "we have to hurry. We're going to go help another family move soon." I pour a bowl of Cheerios, and we all start to eat. Since there's practically no room on the table, mom moves all the cereal boxes on to the long, wooden desk at the side of the table. John is eating Doritos cereal, and dad says, "you shouldn't eat that every time, John."
