Favorite breakfast cereal
Grape Nuts for me. Crunchy and delicious! Even without sugar!

Yours?

29. Me like Cheerios, too.
But without the sugar (ugh!). I would eat Cheerios in skim milk with a sliced banana for every meal if I thought I could live on it.

2. Uncle Sam cereal
Toasted whole-grain wheat flakes with crispy whole flaxseed. It's crispy, chewy and delish

12. Milk 'em before bed? Naah!
They don't provide good exercise for teeth and jaws that way.

I like Corn Chex too, but I can't get them here. I have to stock up whenever I visit the US.

6. Lucky Charms!
They're magically delicious!

But there's no magic about it: It's sugar and chemically treated dehydrated marshmallows mixed with far more sugarcoated corn crunchy bits. :eyes:

15. McCann's Instant Oatmeal...
Grown & manufactured in Ireland. I KNOW that the original Steel Cut is better, but have you ever made REAL oatmeal for one? What does one do with leftover oatmeal--after the bathroom caulking & loose fireplace tiles have been repaired?

The instant is far better than Quaker--and the flavored versions have no artifical ingredients.

What do I do with the leftovers? Feed it to the hens, of course!

18. Rice Chex & Rice Crispies. I could go on
But that's a close one I love so many cereals. I'd eat cereal 3 times a day if I could get away with it. I love Grape Nuts too and even Shredded Wheat. I love Lucky Charms and Wheaties. Cocoa Crispies and Count Chocula. Cheerios. Mmmm. Oh, and I've been addicted to McCann's Oatmeal for YEARS now, especially the fluffy variety you cook up in a double boiler.

Really the only kind of cereal I can't tolerate are the ones that tear up the insides of your mouth. You know, like Captn Crunch. You finsh a bowl of that and salty flesh strips are hanging down off the roof of your mouth. What's up with that? Does this not happen to EVERYBODY? Do some people develop a tolerance, like they have callouses in their mouth or something?

Oh, yeah, I don't like Life cereal. It's very weird.

I have a habit of mixing my cereals. I NEVER have a bowl of just one type of cereal. I MUST have a bowl of half Rice Crispies and half Wheaties, or a bowl of three quarters Cheerios and one quarter Grape Nuts.

21. Grape Nuts O's.
I'm not sure if they make them anymore, but they're wonderful.

Also Cracklin' Oat Bran, and Kashi Heart to Heart, and Kix.

Now and then, when I'm cuckoo, a big ol' bowl of Cocoa Puffs.
