What Are Your Favorite Cereals?...Be a Frootloop in a world full of Cheerios!

The clown is fairly scary, my choice is Lucky charms rings in the spring and summer, raisin bran, special k with berries and bananas.

Mine is Bob's Red Mill steel cut oats. Stir in 1 Tbsp all natural peanut butter, 1 Tbsp roasted sunflower seeds, and 1/2 Tbsp real maple syrup. Add fresh blueberries or raspberries when available. A cup of non-fat Icelandic Skyr on the side makes it a perfectly balanced, low cal breakfast.

That sounds really healthy!

I like Cheerios and Raisin Bran. Kashi cereals and Fiber One are okay, too.

My favorites are granolas and cooked cereals. I forgot the name of the one I really like that my mom cooked us as children.

When I didn't have to worry about sugar, my favorite cereal was "Life" & "Sugar Frosted Flakes."
I could easily make half a box disappear - with or without milk. In fact, without milk, I could make the WHOLE box disappear.

Each CUP = 41 gms sugar. Who eats a cup of cereal?

Coo-coo for Coco Puffs when I was a kid. But they don't taste as good now. None of them do, imo. My other favorite was Wheat Chex but I haven't seen them on the shelf in a long time....maybe they had a lot of gluten?

My daily cereal is Old Fashioned Oats with Chia. I make this in the microwave. I then top with slices of fresh ginger root, 1/2 tsp of black cumin, a small bowl full of microwaved frozen cherry berry fruit mix, walnuts, almond milk, and honey. I have this with my very strong Cafe Bustelo expresso coffee. Then I chase this all down with a 16 oz bottle of spring water.

Growing up I ate Cheerios, Grape Nuts, Bran Flakes, Rice Crispies, Chex, and Corn Flakes, preferably with fresh fruit and abundant sugar. All the super sweetened cereals like Froot Loops and Lucky Charms were not allowed. There sure are a lot of cereals these days!

Here's an idea for a quick, home-made cereal that's actually healthy:
Buy a package of raw sliced almonds.
Add it to milk - or almond or soy milk.
Add a diced apple
Add flax meal (optional)
Add cinnamon.
If it's not sweet enough, add some sugar or half a banana. Remember, unlike packaged cereal, you're not getting processed sugar, so you can add a teaspoon of sugar, which is only 4 gms sugar. Way less than a packaged cereal.

Froot Loops, Trix, Lucky Charms, Quaker's Fruit & Cream strawberry and peaches, Cocoa Krispies.

The only "healthy" cereals I like are basic cornflakes and raisin bran.. haven't had either in many years.
