If I need fiber:

- Raisin Bran crunch

- Frosted Mini Wheat

- Wheat Chex

 

My favorite is:

- Kelloggs Special K Fruit and Yogurt.

 

If I'm feeling naughty:

- Golden Grahams

 

Glad someone brought up Frosted Mini Wheats (FMWs in my house). Excellent call.  I also like Great Grains Blueberry and cranberry.  Usually Cinnamon Toast Crunch for those naughty times, though I agree that Golden Grahams are right tip there with them.

Regular frosted or strawberry for the Mini Wheats?

Regular.  The strawberry taste like they’re flavored with Strawberry Quick to me.  I liked that as a kid, but not so much these days.  Maybe I’m just a purist.  I think someone mentioned Special K with strawberries.  I remember that was pretty good.  At least I liked the strawberries.

 

I think FMWs have more flavors now.  What’s your preference?

I actually prefer the strawberry mini wheats.  

 

Special K fruit and yogurt is my favorite but also will do the Blueberry and Strawberry.  I tried the chocolaty delight and that was too much for me even though I like chocolate.

Old article (2015) ranking the worst cereals for your health. Aka, a great resource to find your top 5 cereals.

 

Man I forgot about Corn Pops. Those might be my number 1. 
 

I gotta have my Pops. 

Checked out your link... none of mine are on there but damn there is some real crap in a lot of those.

Growing up it probably looked something like:

1) Frosted Flakes

2) Fruit Loops

3) Cocoa Crispies

4) Apple Jacks

5) Lucky Charms

Honorable Mention: Corn Pops - damn, I forgot about them until they were mentioned above

 

Nowadays:

1) Corn Flakes

2) Rice Crispies

3) Cheerios

4) Trader Joe Toasted Oatmeal Flakes

5) Whatever wifey bought for the kids (i.e. -  none of my growing up cereals)

hahaha, it had the exact same effect on me last weekend.

Not only that, seeing your post last night made me think of them again and then buy another box about an hour ago!

And the bonus was that as I was grabbing them, on the shelf below them was something I'd never seen before; Frosted Flakes w/ vanilla marshmallows.

I'm seriously considering going to bed right now just so I can get up and mix them together at 3am instead of 6am. :lol:
