    As a kid, I had a solid rotation of: Rice Krispies, Cheerios, Golden Grahams, Apple Jacks, Rice Chex, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Honeycombs, Lucky Charms, and Cocoa Puffs.

    Today: Captain Crunch Berries

    Frosted Flakes

    Super Sugar Crisp

    Quake

    Quisp

    Froot Loops

    I've only recently discovered Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Had I known then, what I know now...it would have been a fav.

    I'm also an oddball in that I do not put milk on my cereal. I eat it dry then down my milk after. Always have, always will.

    I never eat cereal, but was thinking about it at the store this morning, walking down the aisle and wanted to buy myself some Vitamin King cereal...:bigsmile:

    Have breakfast with the King! I used to love that one. Looking back, I can't believe my mom bought me Count Chocula and Frankenberry. I had the Frankenberry frisbee. I tried Frankenberry again last year, but it wasn't as good as I remembered. Also Honeycombs (I think I liked it more for the records you could cut out of the box - I remember The Jackson 5 and Bobby Sherman) and Grape Nuts, which I still love.

    I liked Muffets and Shredded wheat (not the minis, but the big biscuits) - with sliced up fresh strawberries. Oh, and my Grandpa's favorite when he came to live with us - Red River Cereal (a hot cooked cereal.) He used to tease my brother & I that the little flax seeds in it were bugs and make us laugh.

    Today I love Mesa Sunrise flakes made from corn, flax, buckwheat, quinoa & amaranth a couple times a week. Hot steel cut oats once a week

    edited to add my faves today.

    I forgot to add Cream of Wheat. My mom used to make it, and I loved finding the lumps.

    Yes I know, weird that this would be a fave for a kid. When shopping with mum we choose One "Special Cereal" as our own and this is the one I always went for.

    Cheerios. Oh man, I loved them.
    Lucky Charms- those marshamllows man...
    Quaker Oatmeal Squares-I used to mix them with cheerios and it was so good.
    Reeses Puffs- a bit more recent but I do enjoy them.

    My husband still loves to eat cocoa puffs, lucky charms and reeses puffs. Every now and then I'll have a serving as my sweet treat for the day :3

    Corn Pops. Why did they stop making them? :(
    They still make them. I bought them last week :-)

    It used to be Trix, because they were in cool fruit shapes. But Trix are for kids, and now they are just boring round puffs...
    Actually Trix were round puffs in the 80's and maybe even early 90's. Didn't go fruit-shaped till after that. Now they're retro! I prefer the round multi-colored puffs of my childhood :-)

    All we ever bought in our house growing up was plain Corn Flakes but we would cut up bananas in it & it was heaven.

    Now I love Honey Nut & Multi Grain Cheerios.
