Frosted Flakes
Capn' Crunch Frosted Mini Wheates The milk has to be icy cold and I don't like soggy cereal. The CC and FMW hold up pretty well in milk!! I do like Cream of Wheat Maple and Brown sugar for the winter! And on vacation I love a good oatmeal with brown sugar and honey. YUM!!! |

Cocoa Puffs and Captain Crunch.
For some reason, there was a period of about 2 years where I ate nothing but Kellogg's healthier cereals... ;) During Lenten fasting periods, I usually make up some McCann's Irish Oatmeal and add brown sugar, raisins, and cinnamon toward the end of the cooking or heating up process. Other than this and for a little variety, I will eat Kashi GoLean Crunch from time to time with some soy milk. I used to like Total Corn Flakes, but now I can no longer find it on the shelves of any store in my area, so I have to assume it has been discontinued. Sincerely, William R.

Now I'm a Crunchy Corn Bran dude. IMHO, best tasting of the high-fiber bunch. I did eat Cracklin' Oat Bran for a while, but it was too heavy. And it reminds me of dog food. I'm a Corn Flakes guy. With just enough milk so that you can see it in the bowl. Any more, and you have ruined a good cereal. And 2 1/2 tsps of sugar. And a banana (sliced) added. And no...a Corn Flake with sugar added is not the same as a Frosted Flake. |

Cap'n Crunch Special K with Strawberries |
I eat vector 5 days a week. It's made by Kellogg's but you can't get it in the US. It's awesome!!! Best cereal out there!

The really good old days

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'm sure that today's "Honey Smacks" are much healthier than yesteryear's "Sugar Smacks". Meanwhile, when I'm trying to behave I eat the bagged, single grain, popped cereals - wheat, rice, corn without anything added. |

My favorite from when I was a kid was Quisp. Ah, the sweet tooth decay of youth. |
Yeah!!! I see Quisp is available through Amazon.com's marketplace.

Interesting that only a couple of posters have mentioned hot cereal. When we were kids, my mother often served Wheatena [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheatena ] and my younger brother has maintained his taste for it.
I send him a case of it every so often. My sister-in-law hates it. ;) |
I eat Target's version of Frosted Mini Wheats almost every day when I'm home. It has much more consistent frosting than the Kellog's version. I like a good amount of Skim milk over it.
I love Quaker Weight Loss Oatmeal (brown sugar) with a splash of skim milk and 2 splendas. I'll have it for lunch sometimes. I also like cereal as snacks. Sugar Corn Pops (no milk), Fruity Pebbles (usually milk), Golden Grahams, Frosted Flakes, Cap'n Crunch with Crunchberries. Usually I'll buy the Target brand on these too. All healthy choices ;) When I travel I usually do shredded wheat with raisin bran mixed in. |

OK - in addition to all of those, a childhood favorite of mine was "Sugar Jets". Anyone else remember that one?

Kashi Go Lean. Fruit (banana, pear, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, even Raisins and Walnuts). Soy Milk.
On occasion, i've mixed in any of the Post Great Grains cereals with the Kashi. |
