    What was your favorite cereal growing up?

    Mine was Kix!! I love that underlying roasted flavor with mild sweetness and that crunchiness!
    Coming in at a close second was Corn Flakes!

    What do you eat now as an adult?

    I'm on a Corn Flakes kick right now but just prior was Frosted Mini Wheats and Honey Nut Cheerios!

    Mine was Life! Mine still is Life! :) Lol.

    We weren't allowed sugary cereal growing up (my mom's a dietician), so I always have liked the plainer kinds :)

    Kix for sure!! I also loved Frosted Flakes. Now, my fave is Multi grain Cheerios or Honey Nut--sooo yummy. I also LOVE Kashi cereals.

    I eat the same cereals now t hat I ate as a kid. Pretty much all non-sugary ones. I've never liked Lucky Charms and Coco Puffs (good thing, too!). I STILL eat Kix :) LOVE regular and mutli-grain cheerios, special k, corn flakes, etc.

    I LOVED the Berry Berry Kix and one time they had a special Fox and the Hound cereal and since it went on clearance my mom bought and I loved it. Now I will eat whatever the FI buys!

    I love, love, loved Frosted Flakes and Cinnamon Toast Crunch! Obviously "breakfast" was more like dessert growing up!

    Now that my metabolism actually makes a difference (and I would like to keep my grown-up teeth) I'm alternating between Special K Chocolate Delight and Special K Vanilla & Almonds (with a splash of cinnamon for more metabolism boosting power!).

    Um, I'm kind of a cereal freak! My tastes haven't really changed, sadly enough. I love Honey Nut Cheerios, Apple Cinnamon Cheerios, Fruit Loops (the generic brand, though. Don't like the real thing), Rice Krispies, Honey Bunches of Oats...I looove cereal :-)

    I never was a cereal person and I'm still not. When I would eat cereal I liked Lucky Charms or Fruity Pebbles. Now my favorite is Kashi Go Lean Crunch and I mix it with lowfat strawberry yogurt rather than milk. Mmmmm :)

    I loved Kix, Lucky Charms, and Frosted Flakes. However, my ultimate favorite was...

    What Was Your Favorite Cereal? :  wedding Widget CsZM4gT2XdC49w4qnwVO6S

     

    Cracklin' Oat Bran!

    I loved it so much that it became a pet name that I used for other people. For example, if my little sister was acting silly, I'd say "you're just a cracklin' oat bran!" *Sigh* I get nostalgic just thinking about it.

    Now...I still love the above cereals, but I tend to eat granola more than anything. But I still call my little sister a crackling oat bran if she's bein' crazy.

    I second Cracklin' Oat Bran!  We only used to have it when we went to my Gramma's house.  It was like eating desert for breakfast.  My other favorite that my mom would never buy for us was Rice Crispie TREATS cereal.  Oh man, the four of us kids would go through a whole box in one morning.

    Now I actually prefer healthier cereal like oatmeal and homemade granola.  Lately I have been enjoying no-sugar cereals with light vanilla soymilk.  Surprisingly good.

    Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Captian Crunch owned me.
    My mom banned Lucky Charms from our house when I was about 7 because I ate every last marshmallow out of a brand new box >.<

    I still love those cereals, as well as Honeycomb and Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds!

    Oh, I didn't like cereal as a kid, but I did enjoy frosted mini wheats and life.

    Now, I love it! I discovered it's the milk, not the cereal that I hate. So, I eat it with vanilla soy milk now. Yum. My absolute favorite cereal right now is cracklin' oat bran - there's nothing else like it! It goes SO FAST in my house.

    As a kid it was definately cookie crunch. Not sure when I stopped eating it, but I have tried it now that I'm in my adulthood and I honestly can't tell ya what my big fuss with it was.Lucky Charms and Fruitloops of course were up there as well and I still enjoy them. Shhh... my little secret. Wink

    Today it's Special K. LOL.  BIG Difference
