I'n not sure why, but the lucky charms jingle almost took me out. Every time I heard it my blood boiled. Must of been something subliminal sp?.
Only twice something like this has happened, the second is happening now with this outback guy who found ten bucks in his jeans, this is probably a local thing but I've heard is so much I want to shove that 10 dollar bill you know.  |

| Fruit Brute was the werewolf cereal. I liked BooBerry - especially that porkpie hat he wore - made him look like Frank Sinatra.
I was a strange child.

I just made some of my favorite breakfast porridge, something I grew up with in India. It's made with toasted farina, salt, and water or milk. Butter is optional. The dry farina is toasted in a pan on the stove top, then sprinkled into rapidly boiling salted water. It's simmered about 10 minutes, and then you add milk and sugar. Yum :^) |

I like the Kashi line of cereals these days. When I was a kid, I liked Frosted Wheat and Frosted Flakes.
For hot cereal, I like a good steel cut oatmeal.

I never really liked cereal as a child. Nowadays, my favorite is Special K Red Berries or the Kroger Active Lifestyle equivalent. I have tried some of the Kashi Go-Lean that was pretty good, too. I will also eat some of the Honey Bunches of Oats. |

Another childhood fave was "Cookie Crisp". Though I don't eat much cereal today (I can't believe the prices!) some of my favorites are Golden Grahams, Corn Chex, and Kix. I prefer homemade granola, when I get my butt in gear and make it. Just a little sprinkled over yogurt. | Count Chocula and Boo Berries  we dont get them over here in NZ, but LOVED them over in Michigan when I was there for 3 months. I would eat them raw on their own....as a snack.....

Wow have not had a bowl of cereal in ages. Growing up in the 80's and watching Saturday morning cartoons there was always tons of new cereal commercials, Waffle-O's, Fruity Pebbles, Fruit Island Cereal and the list goes on..My favorite was always Honey Nut Cheerios.
If you want to take a trip back cereal memory lane In The 80s - Cereal of the Eighties Index
Can also check the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's too. |

When i was a little girl, I helped feed my baby brother with Farex. Baby porrige. Blooming loved the stuff... 1 for you, 2 for me. No wonder he was skinny.
I loved and still love porrige. Oats made with water and salt with a skim of milk to make it set round the edges

I used to like Raisin Bran and Mini Wheats, but I've tried them recently and don't really like them... Oh well, I'll stick with my flax and wild blueberry granola, tastes better than I remember those others tasting. |
