Did You Eat Any of These Cereals?

[Wombat]

I have got to say that a lot of those mentioned previously seem to contain a lot of sugar and don't look particularly healthy food.

In summer I tend to alternate between Weet-bix and Shredded Wheat with the occasional bowl of Rice Bubbles thrown into the mix.



In winter it is usually porridge though for a change the occasional Shredded Wheat and hot milk


When I am travelling I sometimes pack a variety pack box even though some of them seem to be mostly sugar - fruit loops are inedible in my opinion, I throw those away I'm afraid.

The local Target sells these single serve pouches of Cheerios. I think that were originally intended as portable snacks for toddlers.

I tasted Grape Nut about 70 years ago at my grandparent's home. I loved them. Never tasted them since, can't get them here.
As children we ate Kellog's Rice Bubbles, Corn Flakes All Bran and Weet-Bix. As an adult I love Porridge.

I’ve got some Kellogg’s Bran Flakes waiting to be Opened.
I’ve seen those KitKat cereals Hollydolly posted but so far have resisted them.
I prefer my cereals to be oat or bran based.

I ate Grape-Nuts, Wheatena, and Nabisco Shredded Wheat. I don't like sugary cereals. These days, it's oatmeal or Cream of Buckwheat.

I once tried Puffed Rice and hated it. I didn't like any of the cold cereals at all. I liked homemade oatmeal with butter and maple syrup.

With a strong Irish background, guess which one became the family favorite

As a kid, we mostly ate Cheerios....with enough sugar added to guarantee Diabetes later in life. I have no idea why my mother let us put that much sugar on the cereal.

I can remember drinking the "sugar sludge" from the bowl when the cereal was finished. Yuck.

I eat grape nuts every day. I do this even though I think that turning grapes into nuts is about as silly as milking almonds.

Cream of Buckwheat

This is new to me. I see Bob makes them. I’m always watching for new healthy cereals for my husband.

I need to ask him if he likes Red River Cereal. The problem is he’s stuck with it if I buy something he doesn’t care for.

I admit to being judgmental yesterday as I watched a young family buying cereal. The little girl was trying to climb the shelf to reach Wicked. The mother said no and then they chose three other junk cereals.

Store brand Cheerios and extra-raisin raisin bran.

At home the only cold ceral I remember eating was shredded wheat, but we also always had oat meal and cream of wheat which I added butter and sugar to.

My grandmother would buy me Lucky Charms, I'd eat the cereal first, then the lucky charms then drink down that sugary milk.

I ate puffed rice as a kid and cream of wheat and oatmeal. Don't eat puffed rice today. I like plain cheerios, shreddies, weetabix, shredded wheat (with hot milk) and sometimes cinnamon toast crunch.
