Favorite cereal as a child -- Cinnamon Toast Crunch
Favorite cereal now -- Cinnamon Toast Crunch
Disgusting cereal -- Lucky Charms
Cereal I want to try -- Frosted Cinnamon Toast Crunch

You?

I'm really boring. I love Life cereal. I get it super sogged up with milk and I just love it. I don't like many others. As a kid, I liked Raisin Bran but I can't eat raisins now so Life is it.

I also like Corn Chex plain- no milk. And I love Check Snack mix.

I love Chex Snack Mix, too.

Favorite cereal as a child - Trix or Rice Krispies
Favorite cereal now - Combination of Cheerios & Fruit Loops
Disgusting cereal - Runny Oatmeal (I like it very thick, not goopy)
Cereal I want to try - ??

I hardly ever eat cereal because I don't like milk, and it's hard to avoid when eating cereal. (I tried to eat it with water once. Once.) My favorite cereal as a child was frosted mini wheats. What a fool I was in my youth.

I now know that Life is the one true cereal.

As a child, I ate Corn Flakes and, of course, Frosted Flakes (Tony the Tiger).

Probably due to my "love/hate" relationship with milk I don't really eat cereal much anymore. Although I think there is a box of Corn Flakes in the cabinet.

As a kid, my favorite cereal was Fruity Pebbles.
As an adult, I like Captain Crunch Berries.
There really isn't too many cereal brands that I haven't tried. I'd say the brands I don't like are the ones without any sugar. They're too bland and have no taste to them.

When I was in elementary school, we went on a field trip through the Kellogg's factory in Battle Creek. They stopped the tours due to corporate espionage; for a while they had a visitor center, but that's closed now, too. We were given a free 8-pack of the "fun size" cereal boxes at the end of our tour. We all thought that was a great prize!

My favorite cereal is granola...that's really the only kind I like. I've never been much of a cereal eater.
