I ate sooooo much Honey Nut Cheerios as a child, I've sworn off of them. I will eat regular Cheerios, though.

Favorite rot your teeth: Lucky Charms
Not as bad: Golden Grahams
A little bit better: Kix
Heathy-ish: Raisin Bran and Rice Chex

Lucky Charms used to be my poison of choice. Honey nut cheerios and frosted flakes were favorites as well.

But now breakfast is greek yogurt + granola cereal. Such is the life of a grown-up.

Adult breakfast used to be a smoke & a coke. Quit drinking Coke in Dec 2004. Quit Smoking in 2005. Now I just get up, get dressed & go to work. :(

I'll still have a bowl of the kids stuff every once in awhile. My favorites are lucky charms, fruity pebbles, captain crunch with crunch berries.

With all the new fangled cereals today, I often forget how good soggy Life cereal is or a simple bowl of Kix or Raisin Brand.

Got a box of Kix a couple months back.... not quite the same as it used to be..... don't get me wrong, it was good, just not like I remember as a kid. Also Kix were about as sugary of a breakfast cereal that I was EVER able to get as a kid.

No Cocoa Puffs??? That would be my favorite sugary cereal, along with Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch.

That said, I only get a box of them maybe once a year. Usually it's something like Quaker Oatmeal Squares or Frosted Mini Wheats.

I really like to snack on a bowl of dry Lucky Charms or Cheerios. For breakfast (or sometimes as dinner when it's dad's night to cook), I would go with Peanut Butter Crunch or Reese Peanut Butter Puffs. Either of these would be the correct answer.

For me it's Lucky Charms. One of the highlights of my childhood is when they added the rainbow marshmallow to it

On a related note, did you hear about the guy who was found dead in a bathtub covered with milk and corn flakes............The police suspect a cereal killer.

I used to love Sugar Pops before they renamed them Corn Pops. So I voted for them, but haven't had them in a while.

I normally buy the frosted spoon-sized shredded wheat.

I was wondering the other day if they still make the old shredded wheat in the large biscuits or whatever they were. My Dad used to crumble them in melted butter/margarine, stir it up, and then add salt. Basically what later became the triscuit.

That's not cereal. It's BREAKFAST FOOD.

Whichever has the coolest prize inside. I recently bought a box of lucky charms instead of something healthy because it came with a comic book inside. #### getting old.

Anyone that says grape nuts deserves a broken tooth. Seriously, who thought packaging gravel and calling it cereal was a good idea. That stuff is terrible.

When I was a kid it was PB Cap'n Crunch. But then I grew up and realized they put glass shards in there to tear up the roof of your mouth!

I have a similar psychological situation w/ other cereal brands -- Even if it were the exact same ingredients, Golden Crisp isn't nearly as yummy as Super Sugar Crisp, for example.

Using "sugar" is off-limits, I know ... but it isn't even ******* super anymore!

No Rice Crispies? Wait, never mind, who would really pick that anyway.

Went with Golden Grahams since it's the last cereal I ate an entire box of for one meal.



Me. Not my favorite but I've eaten plenty of it. Like many of the others depends on what I'm in the mood for. Cinnamon toast crunch, frosted flakes, fruit loops and fruit pebbles. Also a fan of the Reese's too. Also down with Capt. Crunch.

Cereal's I'm not a fan of are Wheaties and cheerios.
