I eat cereal almost everyday for breakfast as I have to have something quick or I skip breakfast before work. I also really like cereal. I always have. But I have found myself in a little bit of a cereal rut. I am heading to the grocery store later today and I need some inspiration. What is your favorite breakfast cereal? Why do you like it? Thanks.

    Used to be cheerios - now I'm addicted to Frosted Mini-Wheats. I also love oatmeal in the winter. I also eat cereal sometimes if I have calories I need to use.

    New Fiber 1 Shredded Wheat Brown Sugar Flavour is incredible!

    I like mixing 1/2 cup of Fiber One Bran with 3/4 cup of Cocoa Puffs. I know it;s high in sugar, but I love sweet stuff! And the two seem to go well together
    Fiber One Honey Clusters (something like that) is also good

    Honey Nut Cheerrios or Honey Bunches of Oates....Good taste, without being too bland.

    I love spoon sized shredded wheat as it has no junk in it (just one ingredient) and it's pretty low in calories. I add unsweetened almond milk, cinnamon and blueberries. Been eating that for several years now.

    another one of my fav. is raisin bran. Both the special k type cereal and the raisin bran dont need any additional sugar to taste awesome!

    I looove rice crispies. A bowl of that crunchy goodness gets me filled up just enough so that I'm content but not weighed down. Every once in a while I'll go with Chex or Bran Flakes (not Raisin Bran, because I don't really like raisins and just flakes = fewer calories). I also sometimes go for cheerios.

    These cereals used to be too bland for me, but now I drink almond milk, which adds a flavor of it's own that, I believe, really makes the cereal!

    Just tried Kashi Go Lean Crunch, the Almond Flax one. I had it with Reduced Fat Vanilla Soymilk. It was very good and really filling!

    I always ate Weetabix but switched to Oatabix a few months ago - It's great, I highly recommend it.

    Homemade, grain free Paleo/Primal cereal which consists of almond slivers, pecans, unsweetened shredded coconut, cinnamon and either blueberries, red/black raspberries or strawberries covered in coconut milk. SO good...just had some to break an 18 hour fast.

    This sounds delicious! Must make for daughter. I quit eating cereals about 2 years ago except for oatmeal because gluten destroyed my gut. On March 21, I quit grains because they weren't working for me. If I could undo one food choice in my life, it would be to not have eaten gluten containing cereals/breads growing up. For me, they were a one-way ticket to morbid obesity.
