I loved those sugary cereals, but considering our financial state, are "cereal" was usually torn up pieces of bread with sugar, in a bowl of powdered milk. My mother tried to put the powdered milk in a real milk container, but come on, who's gonna fall for that?
I feel you. We had Corn Flakes with a half pound of sugar poured on. After the cereal was eaten I would scoop all the sugar from the bottom of the bowl. Surprised I don’t have diabetes.

I being the youngest I had a sibling rivalry with my sister. Never did I want to like anything she did. Even cereal, we had 2 favorites at breakfast She liked Count Choculala and Ilike Frankenberry. She like Coco- Pepples and I liked Fruity Pepples. So got me thinking what was your childhood cereal. It's Saturday Morning and cartoons are coming on. Parents asleep. What cereal did you make for yourself?
Anything that contained 40+ grams of sugar/serving.

Walmart 12 pack 50 bucks. lol Didn't realize they only had the individual boxes.
Lol?

I stated 4 boxes......and they're out of stock.

All I have to do is call my brother and he can send me as many boxes I want.

I never stated I NEED the cereal. Just miss it.

Can you let it go now and not ruin this great thread?

Than you.

Oh definitely Cinnamon Toast Crunch. That was the pinnacle of epic cereal when I was younger.

Funny this thread is brought up. I don't eat cereal too much as an adult, however, I've been in this cereal kick the last 2-3 months. I was super hooked on Chex Peanut Butter but it is super hard to find. Seems to sell out everywhere. On that note, I bought the imitation brand Cinnamon Toast Crunch (Cinnamon Toasters) and Cocoa Pebbles (Cocoa Dyno-Bites) and absolutely destroyed those 2 bags. LOL!

I feel like we live in a time where the imitation has surpassed the real deal. The Cocoa Dyno-Bites are amazing. :D

My cereal types hasn’t changed since I was a kid 40+ years later. I like it sweet and childish from Crunch Berries to Fruity Pebbles to Cookie Crisp. I usually eat it as a midnight snack.

A few that aren’t made anymore that I loved was C-3PO’s, Crazy Cow, Yummy Mummy and Vanilla Cookie Crisp.

Keep the healthy cereal far from me but I do like the Maple Frosted Mini-Wheats once in awhile.
