Favorite Cereal?
 
Sigmagrrl's post about the cereal restaurant in Philly got me in a breakfast food state of mind so I thought I'd ask:

"What is your favorite Cereal?"


My top three:

1. Corn Pops
2. Sugar Smacks
3. Kix

Honorary Mention: Rice Chex

1) Life Cereal--It's the cereal that my brother and I can both share. (It never stays around our apartment too long!)

DGqueen17 12-02-2004 01:52 PM

Lucky Charms, Apple Jacks, Cheerios, Oreo-O's..........mmm I love cereal.

TheEpitome1920 12-02-2004 01:54 PM

Cheerios (with or without the honey)

I LOVE CEREAL! Some favorites: cocoa and fruity pebbles, cinnamon life, cheerios, kix, rice chex, special K with strawberries, Quaker oatmeal squares, and there's this KILLER raspberry granola made by some naturey company that is just amazing.

Favorite cereal that's not good for me - Cookie Crisp

I've cut down on my cereal consumption but we still seem to have 6-8 boxes on top of our fridge for just us two.

My favorites (in no particular order):

Honeycomb, Crunchberries (hee, I first typed "Crunkberries" wouldn't that be something?), Cinnamon Life, Crunchy Corn Bran, Fruity Pebbles, Cocoa Pebbles, Reese's Puffs, PB Cap'n Crunch, Rice Krispies, Honey nut Oh's, Golden Grahams, Lucky Charms, Marshmallow AlphaBits, SpecialK, Cheerios and oatmeal (which may or may not be considered "cereal.")

Oh the joys of living in a city with not one, but TWO cereal companies. (Quaker Oats and General Mills. In fact, one of the gals in my alumnae group is in charge of quality control of Cinnamon Life at Quaker and can boxes for free.)

greeklawgirl 12-02-2004 02:27 PM

I am a Corn Flakes, Cheerios, Crispix kind of girl. I don't like really sweet cereals.

valkyrie 12-02-2004 02:41 PM

OMG I can't believe I forgot cap'n crunch -- they're all awesome.

DeltaSigStan 12-02-2004 02:45 PM

CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH

If we're talking good FOR YOU cereal, I actually like corn flakes.

sigmagrrl 12-02-2004 02:53 PM

You opened a box o' worms with me!

OK, let's see. First, I need to say: I only eat cereal with warm milk. Cold cereal cuts the room of my mouth. It's not hot milk, it just has the chill taken out every so slightly....It's a science really!;)

OK, so let's get started here:

1) Wheat Chex with raisins
2) Raisin Squares (I can't FIND THEM ANYMORE!!!!:mad: )
3) Cheerios with raisins and bananas
4) Corn Flakes/Frosted Flakes w/ bananas
5) Raisin Bran
6) Rice Chex (yes, with raisins or bananas)
7) Raisin Nut Bran
8) Crispix
9) Rice Krispies w/ raisins
10) Froot Loops
11) Lucky Charms
12) Golden Crisp
13) Bite sized shredded wheat w/ raisins
14) Cocoa Pebbles
15) Life w/ raisins
16) KIX
17) Cap'n Crunch w/ Crunchberries
18) Cookie Crisp
19) It doesn't exist anymore, but SMURFBERRY CRUNCH!!!!!


OK, so I guess you are asking yourself, "Damn, Sigmagrrl, is there a cereal you DON'T like?" Well, I'm glad you asked! Here are the worst cereals I have ever tasted: (note: this is personal preference, don't get all bent outta shape if you like 'em)

1) Apple Jacks
2) Trix
3) Cocoa Puffs
4) Corn Pops
5) Fruity Pebbles
6) Apple Cinnamon Cheerios
7) Cinnamon Toast Crunch
8) Golden Grahams
9) Honey Nut Chex
and the worst cereal EVER......TOTAL! ICK!


I bow my head and honor thee, inventors of cereal...

texas*princess 12-02-2004 02:55 PM

I don't care if these aren't good for me!!!

My favs are Cookie Crisp, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, and Strawberry-blasted Honeycombs

AlphaSigOU 12-02-2004 03:07 PM

Whatever's cheap and/or for sale in the supermarket.

OMG

That cereal was sooooo good.

OleMissGlitter 12-02-2004 06:55 PM

Favorite Cereals

1. Honey Nut Cheerios
2. Lucky Charms
3. Product 19

ZTAMich 12-02-2004 07:21 PM

Corn Flakes
Honey Nut Cheerios
Special K with Red Berries
Lucky Charms

Side note: growing up we only had 'low sugar' cereals. I knew there were others but never had them. When I went away to college the 'cereal buffet" that was available at every meal amazed me and I became hooked on Lucky Charms. I usually ended dinner with a bowl of them!

PhiPsiRuss 12-02-2004 07:26 PM

I don't think that they make it anymore, but Nutri-Grain Almond Raisin was my all time favorite. It tasted great, and it didn't become soggy from milk.

Unregistered- 12-02-2004 07:26 PM

I love Frosted Mini Wheats and Cookie Crisp!

Tippiechick 12-02-2004 08:07 PM

Kashi Heart to Heart rocks my world. I eat it both with milk and without. It's awesome.

Honorable mention goes to Fruity Pebbles and Apple Jacks.

AchtungBaby80 12-02-2004 08:09 PM

J'adore Frosted Flakes (yummm!), Rice Krispies (sigh!), Froot Loops (delicious!), and Cap'n Crunch. I would eat nothing but cereal all day if my mom didn't call and remind me that there's other stuff out there.

NinjaPoodle 12-02-2004 09:02 PM

Cheerios
any sugar covered cereal from the 80's:p
granola

ShaedyKD 12-02-2004 09:23 PM

Freshman year I lived off of cereal because the cafeteria food sucked. I can't really think of a cereal I don't like, except for maybe Oat Bran Nuggets or something equally healthy. If I had to only choose one...I gotta have my Pops.

Sister Havana 12-02-2004 11:25 PM

Life Cereal is my absolute favorite. I also like Corn Pops, Apple Jacks, Frosted Rice Krispies, Cap'n Crunch Crunchberries, Trix, Frosted Flakes, Golden Grahams, Waffle Crisp, Reese's Puffs, Cookie Crisp, Smores Crunch...

Why yes, I do eat like a 10 year old. :D

Gina1201 12-03-2004 01:48 AM

Honey Nut Cheerios

WCUgirl 12-03-2004 01:50 AM

Captain Crunch's Oops! All Berries

<------ so sad that they don't make it anymore

ETA: guess I'll list the cereals they do still make. :D

I like Apple Jacks, Fruit Loops, Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Honey Nut Chex. Sometimes I'll get Fruity Pebbles or Cookie Crisp. Generally I'll bag some cereal in a ziplock baggie and eat it at work in the mornings.

Anyone else here NOT put milk on their cereal? Everyone makes fun of me b/c I eat my cereal dry. But I don't like milk, so I won't put it on my cereal.

Tom Earp 12-04-2004 12:13 AM

Cheerios and the old Shredded Wheat! Now all it is is suger mini wheat!:mad:

Any kind of Chex mix is only any good to make a great party mix along with nuts and pretzels!:D

Just a purist at heart!;)

PhoenixAzul 12-04-2004 12:23 AM

No sugared cereals for me. I love love love Kix. Best cereal out there if you ask me. Multigrain Cherios, Regular Cheerios, Life Cereal.

AGDee 12-04-2004 10:11 AM

Add me to the Life cereal lovers. It's the only one I really really like. I love them when they are really sogged up with milk.

I also like oatmeal, the apple and cinnamon one.

I like chex as a snack, no milk, but I REALLY love the Chex snack mix, does that count as cereal?

AOPIHottie 12-04-2004 12:17 PM

Honey nut cheerios-I am like a kid, I will get a huge ziplock baggie of that stuff and eat it all day long!!

I also love cocoa pebbles and Lucky Charms

mmcat 12-04-2004 12:22 PM

oatmeal...
add me to the list of honey nut cheerios and life cereals.
