I like Cheerios, Life, and Shredded Wheat. As a kid I always wanted Life but there wasn't an off-brand so my parents would always buy fake Cheerios and Froot Loops. You know how people say it's the same stuff in the bags as in the boxes? Probably true. But I just hate Froot Loops for what they do to my milk.

I cannot abide a soft fruity milk.

I, too, had the same situation. To this day, Froot Loops are monstrous, as are Lucky Charms. Mind you, Fruity Pebbles and its various knockoffs are magnificent, so there's probably something psychosomatic going on here.

Have you checked your house for any lesser deities? They tend to fuck with people like that. Just remember to look out for the people who are human and blatantly not human.

I've always loved froot loops. Takes a massive amount of self-control not to buy them now as an adult, since I was never allowed to have them as a kid. ;_; And of course, now I understand why that was, and so I miss out.

...I could probably balance out my diet if I had froot loops then just didn't eat for a day, right? Right?!

[wierd]

Fruitloops? Blech.

Applejacks all the way, when going for fruity rings.


But usually? I go for "real beakfast cereal", like muesli, granola, and pals, but I usually skip breakfast.

[Caz]

I like those cinnamon square things. Cereal is probably just marginally more nutritional than cardboard, though.

Used to have Cocoa-pops/ Rice Bubbles when I was in Primary School. That changed to Nutra-Grain when I was in High School. Now I mostly have various cereals with fruit bits in them like Sultana Bran. I find sugary cereal isn't really refreshing/wake-upy enough.

Either cereal or bacon and eggs, though I try not to have bacon b/w eggs too often.

I always wanted to get those six packs of small cereal boxes. Mostly for the novelty, also because you got those sugary Frosty-thingies in them.

The stint with Nutra-grain was a good one, because they occationally came with things in the box. I managed to get copies of Age of Empires 1 as well as Tony Hawk Proskater through that. Also a few Wallace and Gromit figurines.

I do not understand how people can eat muesli. I mean, come on, at least eat Weetbix/wheat biscuits!
Or toast, if it comes to that. Why not fry up an egg? Anything but muesli.

Apart from froot loops, I like Nutri-grain, weetbix bites and the occasional Cocoa Pop. And those Chex things, I guess.

[wierd]

What's wrong with muesli? O.o

It has lots more flavor than nasty kellogg's shreaded wheat biscuits. Blech.

At least I didn't come out and say something horrid, like suggesting a big wholesome bowl of allbran, without sugar.

I've come to hate fruit-flavored cereals simply because they don't taste like any fruit in particular. It's just a vague fruity taste on top of the base corn or rice cereal.

[wierd]

That's why you should try applejacks. They have a cinnamon taste.

[Kadzar]

I am familiar with the Applejacks. As I recall they also have a bit of the bland fruity taste to them, though I think it might have been slightly more appley than the normal fruit flavor, which was not at all.

Also, talking of breakfast cereal has reminded me of French Toast Crunch, and how it is not sold in most stores anywhere, though I think I vaguely recall reading of it still being made.

Preedit: Yes, it seems it is still sold in Canada. No doubt as a measure to stop their precious maple syrup from being consumed by foreigners. The only other explanation is that people just didn't buy enough in the American market to continue their sale, which is impossible because, as far as I can recall from over a decade ago when I last had them, they were delicious.

I do not understand how people can eat muesli. I mean, come on, at least eat Weetbix/wheat biscuits!

B-But Weetbix almost literally has the nutritional value of cardboard! Muesli, on the other hand has only one downfall for me: it takes far too flippin' long to eat, my word. Unless you just swallow the grains unchewed, but that sounds like a recipe for disaster.

[Helgoland]

Why is there grain in your Müsli? Isn't it usually made with oats?

[Rose]

Are oats not grains?

[scrdest]

Oat, wheat, barley, rice... not to sure about corn...

I've seen some with a corn flake every now and then.

[Loud Whispers]

Corn and corn based products pls leave
Wheat and museli can stay
