Which Cereal do you Love and Hate

clubchick said:
does hot cereal count? cuz quaker instant oatmeal is the NASTIEST cereal EVER!!!!!

as for favorites, i'd have to go with frosted mini wheats or honey bunches of oats w/ strawberries... but that's only cuz they don't make raisin nut bran anymore (remember the commercials with the squirrel? uh... maybe not.... )

but if i need a sugar fix, then it HAS to be oreo o's or lucky charms- come on over, mommy, i'll pour you a bowl ;)

im actually a fan of the instant oatmeal... so many flavors - and oatmeal has really good nutrional value!

otherwise - Lucky Charms.
 
hate plain oatmeal (it's good for you but it lacks something :-P maybe cuz my mom makes it every morning for breakfast)

love captain crunch, honey bunches of oats

i know it's got a lot of flavors and it's good for you- that's why i feed it to my family... they all love it but they can't make ME eat it :28:- the problem is that i grew up eating homemade oatmeal and mom would sweeten it with a scoop of jelly in it-- ick-- so now any oatmeal tastes gross... i just don't understand how people eat it... but, then, i'm sure i eat stuff other people think is gross.
so, jase, if you wanna be gross, go ahead ;) :p

Love : Lucky Charms

Hate : THE PRICE
 
One hot topic I started on the straighdope.com was whether you put cereal in first or milk first. I put milk in first, cereal second. But got creamed by people who follow commercials & put in cereal first. Whats the point? It just gets soggy.

some cereal NEEDS to be a little soggy, though... like the ones with dehydrated fruit or marshmallows. besides, i eat so darn fast i've never had a problem with soggy cereal!! good point about being brainwashed by tv commercials to do it their way.... well i guess you didn't say we're brainwashed, but i'm starting to think we may just be...

Oh god it took me a while to reply to this but here i am now. hehehe

I like oatmeal and I Love Cream of Wheat!!!

Oh God But Grits are Aweful!!!!!!! :tongue:
 
Regulat Oatmeal tastes like bland mush. But if you get steel cut oats, they taste great.
 
I do eat regular oatmeal by putting some honey and sprinkling some raisins. It tastes great.
 
I like the instant oatmeal with the flavors. My favorites are Peaches 'n Cream, Strawberries 'n cream, and blueberries 'n cream!!! Same for Cream of Wheat. Yummmm!!! :32: :32: :32:
 
Love: Frosted Shredded Wheat, anything with "Cocoa" in the name

Ewww: Cap'n Crunch- it has fatty stuff that sticks to the roof of your mouth! Also, "Special" K with strawberries. Strawberries just weren't meant to be dried.
 
I don't care for cold cereal. I like plain quaker oats with a little sugar in the raw or honey. My bp is borderline high and the plain oats have 0 sodium (the packs have at least 240mg and I usually eat would have to eat two at a time).
 
Love: Cinnamon Toast Crunch
Hate: Plain Cheerios
 
Rice Crispie Treats Cereal is so good!!!!!!!!!!!

I do not like lucky charms. biting into those marshmellows give me the chills.
 
Has anyone tried those new South Beach Diet cereals? They are nasty!

I put my cereal in first, then pour milk over it. When the milk goes in first, the cereal floats and doesn't get moist and chewy.

I prefer either marshmellow cereals (Lucky Charms, etc.), 0r plan Rice Crispies with a little Splenda.

I hate the Kashi stuff and grits, both taste like eating little dehydrated turds, the Kashi would be chopped cat turds, while grits would be mouse turds. :thumbs_do
 
Love: corn flakes with red berries topped with full fat tart plain yoghurt and thinned with milk or use kefir. anything of the miniwheat species is good, especially if there's sugar involved.

Could not bear to live without: rice krispie treats

Not a big fan of: total, wheaties, kix, cheerios, chex, grits (except in the south)

grape nuts -- don't forget you can microwave 'em
