Since there are so many different types around, may as well have a rant about it.

I don't really have a favourite that I buy each week but lately I've been addicted to Crunchy Nut. So I thought I'd buy the clusters they were advertising. Big mistake, I hate them. But now I gotta finish them since I bought them :P.

I love crunchy nut. My favourites Golden grahams but I hardly see them anywhere these days except for the cinamon ones. I hate those.

EDIT: I forgot im a big fan of weetabix with hot milk.

This morning I had Honey Nut Shredded Wheat, and it wasn't a bad bowl of cereal but my favourite is probably Nut Clusters.

And on the Golden Grahams front, I used to like them too but am afraid to tell you it was a case of "sorry graham, we hardly knew ya'", and they got cancelled a year or so ago! They kept the Cinnamon ones going for some reason.

I used to like Golden Grahams too, shame they discontinued them as the cinnamon ones are horrible.

God that cock's me off. They really were my favourite. The cinamon ones taste like arse. If I wanted a big bowl of arse i'd get a boyfriend. i DON'T THOUGH i WANT HONEY. Theres no justice though there really isn't.
I like wheeto's.

EDIT: Sorry just venting there. Im very passionate about my honey/wheat based snack.

You are good with your shouts rich XD.
Wheeto's seem to be dyeing out around here, don't see them to often but they are still around.

I could talk all day about cereals I like. Thinking about it there are loads that are really tasty. It's not too often that I try a cereal that I think isn't good. Probably easier for me to least what I don't like than do.

O.o

Um... here in Austria we have other cereals, so I can't talk with you about 'em.

You've interested me there. Don't you get any of the big name brand cereals like Kellogs or Nestle? e.g Corn flakes,coco pops, shreddies etc.

EDIT: I was just on wiki checking out golen grahams and they have a link to french toast grahams! A cerial that tastes like french toast. I mean that suggests to me egg flavour.

If i'd get the cereal on my preferences, that must be the Sega blend in me since my day of birth, it'd be Cherrios every single morning. °3°. But instead I have to choose depending on what's in the wallet. Which means I don't choose.

I like my cerial to be REALLY chocolatey, Chocosugartoppedoreocookiecrunch

When I'm so tired in the mornings it perks me up >_> though I'm more of a Frosted Shreddies man all round, I eat those most mornings

We do have Kellog's and Nestle, but we don't have the same names. Except for Cornflakes, but I don't like them. lol

I can't eat when I get up so I usually skip breakfast but I do enjoy a good bowl of cocopops.

Crunchy Nut Clusters for me.

Yeah, I don't breakfast either. I prefer cereals as dinner, because they're rather light.

Finally, a good and funny thread of what everyones matters: Cereal!!!

My favorites are:
CornFlakes....with Chocolate syrup on it!
Honey Nut Cheerios, gotta eat those rings!
Frosted mini-wheats, great flavor, perfect zise for snack, and healthy (i think)

They gotta be frosted man, FROSTED >:E

Lol, some cerials are healthy but a lot of cerials are bad for you while pretending to be healthy.

Crunchy Nut a prime offender, it pretends to be healthy but most of that brand really...isn't :/

I used to take sultana bran, do they still make that? :P

Dave
14-01-2009, 23:30
Some cereals are healthy, and other can be healthy if you are sure you are gonna burn the calories(if you don't eat 4 bowls of cereal, i guess it's healthy) after all, i always take one and half bowls of cereal, or maybe two XD.

How many bowls of cereal do each one of you eat?

Rayne
15-01-2009, 00:00
I usually skip breakfast, its only since I started working again that I started eating cerial, one bowl a day :P

Dr Shaneman
15-01-2009, 00:10
Just one, that's enough for me.

How many people here eat cereal with milk? I don't. Makes em soggy and I don't want to drink the rest with the crumbs.

I hardly ever eat cerial and when I do I have it dry as soggy cerial drives me insane!XD My favourite cerial though is country crisp as it's sooooo good!:biggrin:

Sherlock

Normally, it is supposed to be. As long as you don't eat cereal filled with choclate cream or the cinnamon stuff, but rather the honey things, muesli or cornflakes, they are definitely not bad.

I also eat them either in milk or, if fitting to the flavour, orange juice (it really tastes good!).
I hardly can eat cereals dry.

Dr Shaneman
15-01-2009, 14:34
I 've eaten cereal dry before but it's not very interesting for me. I also tend to have warm milk as opposed to cold.

Mena

^ I thought I was the only person who did that. I'm not too fussy about my cereals but I love Honey Cheerios and Fruit n Fibre. I feel like an old git for saying that.

Cereal's healthy depending on how sugary they are, and what milk you use. I think Cornflakes and Rice Krispies with skimmed or semi-skimmed milk is healthiest. I usually have two bowls a day because I tend to skip meals.

I eat my cereal with cold milk, and unlike most people here, I'm ok with semi-soggy cereal. What I mean is it's soggy, but not to the point where it isn't edible. My favorite cereals are probably Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Apple Jacks. I also like Life and Honey Nut Cheerios. I barely eat cereal for breakfast, but instead I have it any other time I'm hungry. For example: now. Sometimes I'll have up to about 3 bowls in one hunger attack.

Now time to go get me a bowl.

Speaking of which, what about Reese's Puffs? I love those, too. (God, I feel like a cereal connoisseur.)

It's the only cereal I've bought so far in 2009.

I've had them when I visited the US, they're quite nice but I wouldn't want to have them everyday for months on end.

I'm keeping track of how many weetabix I eat over xbox live to mock my american friends who don't know what it is / can't have it ^^

Coco-pops (or cheaper variations) for me atm.

I love mixing similar cereals. It's like a wierd OCD thing that they have to be similar, but they taste awesome. Coco Pops + Rice Crispies... Weetos + Cheerios...
Also, cheerios do something messed up to the milk. NEVER leave a bowl of milk out that's had cheerios in.

Weetabix? Is it like Wheat Thins? or Mini-Wheat? If so I gotta try it. Hate mixing up my cereals, get a flavour I didn't want in my spoonful, have to be picking around.

Cherrios get groggy and get bigger when left in milk to long.

I like any cereals that have honey with it, like Honey Bunches of Oats, Honey nut cereal, Honey Nut Cherrios.

Oh so its just to chunks of waffles in a bowl, yumm, Would be same if I ate them seperate, munch waffle, drink milk, Oh wait but you can cut up the waffle to little pieces. So how much waffles are in the box of the cereal? Bet would be yummy with Strawberries. yum :p,
Ewww blugh nasty milk with cherrios. :/

You do not eat weetabix dry. They're like crackers x 10. They BURN to eat dry.
And waffles to me means:

They always encourage you to add something with weetabix.

Because it's like eating carpet otherwise. Has anyone tried the oat flavoured one? A new level in vileness, doesn't taste of carpet but gravel instead. No amount of sugar makes it bearable.

I love weetabix with hot milk and sugar. Mix it all up so it's like porridge. Wheaty goodness.

mudokon100
17-04-2009, 11:04
I never take mine without sugar, it's too bland otherwise. Also, I lolled at carpet/gravel comparison ^^
The best thing about weetabix, however, is what comes up with google searches. Other than domo-kun doing something something he shouldn't in the picture above, there was this:
http://www.jknowles.com/upload/news_1Weetabix_FruitNut_Explosion_v4.jpg

What's the first sound effect that comes to mind? That's what I asked my friend, and we rofled for the next 5 minutes. The thing they're saying to have it with, and when, makes it even funnier.

Nah, they do that to make it more varied, to increase the chances of you eating it more frequently, hence needing to go out and buy more.

What gets me is when they say putting fruit on it makes you "on your way to one of your five a day". On your way? That means you haven't even GOT one of your five a day. So it's basically saying, "Put fruit on it and you've got naff all".

It's like walking to the corner shop and saying "you're on your way... to America!" *Points*

Lol, they don't tell you how much fruit to put in it, so you could add a single raisin to it and then complain that you haven't got one of your 5 a day if they advertised it that way :P
