General Mills deals with basic food items which people tend to use more of when times are tough. As the job market stays grim there will be increased demand for basic inexpnsive food stuffs. GIS should see an increased demand for their products.

They make products that people purchase. Even better, they make products that children WANT their mothers to purchase (i.e, built-in promotion that's mostly free). Their products get purchased again, and again, and again, etc.
And (most important) GIS pays a dividend. We like dividends.
