My favorite is Grape Nuts with a little Cinnamon Life thrown in for a kick. I can play tennis four hours and hours off a nice, big bowl of Grape Nuts.

My favorite from when I was a kid was Quisp. Ah, the sweet tooth decay of youth.

Oh yeah... how much milk do you put in? I flood mine. And it has to be ice cold. But once the cereal has reached the soggy state, I stop... I HATE soggy cereal.

We used to mix the full-on sugar rush cereals with the plain versions for our kids. Mix rice crispies with cocoa pebbles or fruity pebbles. Mix Kix with Cocoa Puffs, etc.

Cap'n Crunch and Froot Loops make great finger food. ^

The good old days, when the name of the cereal promised the sugar rush that it would deliver: Sugar Smacks, Sugar Pops, Sugar Frosted Flakes!

I try to put a certain amount but not overflow and would eat them instantly as I too hate soggy cereals which happens if you dip them and leave it out long before eating them.

Given FT's global audience, I'm pretty surprised nobody mentioned swiss muesli as their #1 cereal.

My long-time favorite breakfast has been muesli with milk and bananas.
Others at the top of my list include Kelloggs Raisin Bran and the relatively newer Kellogg K with Almonds and Vanilla.

We all have our little ways of doing things. I like to put just barely enough milk to cover up the cereal and then let it sit for a minute to soak it up some, so there is no excess liquid. I'm sure that says something psychological, but I don't want to know what it is!
