Cereal.

Is Wheaties the same thing as bran flakes, or is it different?

Wheaties is like Total.

Cocoa Puffs with chocolate milk.

Yes

Kelloggs Raisin Bran with a sliced banana, almost every morning.

I don’t eat cereal often but my favorites are Cocoa Krispies and Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

I'm loving this thread! Some wonderful (and sometimes evil) and tasty things listed!

Stopped by the store on the way home to grab some almond milk to make my workout shakes with (tastes better than making it with regular milk). I toured the cereal aisle, couldn't make up my mind which one I wanted, so I left without. Yes I'm a cerealholic! I was looking for some of the sugar free ones I saw online, but HEB didn't have any of them. I don't like any cereals with added fruit, nuts, sugar, frosting, etc. I like plain cereal. My currents in the rotation are Kellog's All-Bran flakes, and Post Shredded Wheat (plain). My choices were:

Cheerios (plain)
Grape Nuts flakes
Total (plain)

For any cereal fans here, which one would you choose and why?

Grainberry. 100% whole grain. I like the total grape nuts are dense.

I love Cream of Wheat but it’s getting expensive. Same with Malto Meal.

I buy the cheapest generic brand oatmeal.

If you wanted to kick up your health another notch you could stop eating this processed junk and eat only whole grains, things like brown rice, oats with dates, millet, etc. You're paying large corporations to process a whole grain they bought for pennies per pound. You'd almost be better off to eat the box than eat what's in it.

But there’s just something about opening the box, pouring it into a bowl, pouring the milk into the bowl, grabbing your spoon, and going to town!!

Cereal is fun!

Cereal is fun!

It's fun if you're OK with your state of health and eating processed foods and the health problems they can cause.
I outgrew that stuff over 40 years ago.

Aquariuscsm, a question unrelated to this thread. I am curious about your avatar. Who is it and why did you choose it?

 

[MParr]

When I want cereal, I choose beer.

 

[GSCJR]

I feel like I’m just eating a bowl of hay

Thank goodness I wasn't drinking when I read this, it would have gone all over my screen.

To me, the cereal aisle is as much fun as the oil aisle

I also like breakfast cereals. But I'm a little more indulgent with cereals that have fruit and nuts. And I'll also go for the sugar coated stuff too.

But to your original question, of the three, my first choice is Grape Nut Flakes. I love the stuff. It just has more flavor than the normal grainy flake. In fact, I just picked up a box today. My second choice would be Cheerios, although I haven't eaten much in many years, I do like the grainy taste and texture. Total would be my last choice. I used to eat it quite a bit, forty years ago. But I got tired of it. Haven't had a bowl in decades.

No cereal here, I scramble two eggs and microwave for 1:45. Side is a bowl of berries.
