Anyone else a cereal addict?

I could eat cereal 3 meals a day. My absolute favorite is Special K with strawberries. I know its not the best thing to eat all the time but its nice when I need a quick snack. I have mine with unsweetened vanilla almond milk. Im a couponer and got a ton (10 boxes) of Kashi Go Lean a couple of weeks ago but have not moved on to it yet. I only got 2 kinds. The honey almond flax and the berry. Im thinking the Kashi has got to be the better option since I am seriously lacking in protein and it is higher in protein than Special K. I read on one of the threads about someone putting the Kashi in unflavored greek yogurt. Anyone tried this? That would be something I would eat too!

I am absolutely a cereal addict----The Wal-Mart brand if my favorite---It's called Strawberry Awake--but I love the Kashi one as well. I like it with Skim Milk--but mainly because I have never tried Almond milk of Soy----Is it really good??

Bump because threads are getting lost in the drama on here!

I like the almond. I have never tried the soy. I didnt think I would like the almond because I am a milk drinker but its good.

I'm obsessed with cereal. It's relatively low-cal and there's a million varieties and the majority taste great! The only problem is it causes me to overload on carbs. Lately I just don't care, though. Can't let go of my Kix with almond milk

I love cereal too, but you have to check the label carefully, some is very high in sugar.

Huge cereal fan...used be that I would end up with too much milk, so added more cereal...then of course too much cereral so added more milk...then the box was gone.

Now I use a food scale, measure out in grams in the bowl, add skim milk and I am done. (one portion...I think something like 53 grams...kashi go lean...not the crunch...but I sometimes have the berry..yummy)

I am addicted to just plain cherrios or frosted mini wheats. I use either plain soy milk or vanilla soy milk. YUM!

Absolutely too much sugar in some of them...and not whole grain.

I love cereal and have a hard time weaning myself off... just bought a box of Life although my favourite is actually plain Cheerios. However, Cheerios are good if you want milk with something crunchy in it - they don't actually fill you up.

It is shocking how much sugar even the "good" cereals have. I compared Froot Loops to Raisin Bran and Bran Buds once and couldn't believe they were almost the same.

YES!! I love cereal. Quick, easy, not too many calories, and there's many varieties

I agree, Cheerios are amazing. And I have no control over them...so I stay away. I have no problem with Kashi Go Lean, and I think it has to do with the protein in theirs.

Back in the day, I go zoom through an entire box of Cheerios. Now they make all kinds of tempting flavors...that's very mean. :sad:

I could eat cereal 3 times a day too!!!!!!!!

Love cereal too! I just started to use vanilla almond milk and now I love cereal even more.

maryjay51

i used to eat it all the time but gave it up all except oatmeal which i eat plain with no milk --just sprinkle cinnamon on it..only because im trying to lose weight and body fat ..i could eat a whole box of cereal though if i allowed myself

kimtpa1417

Kristene618

yessssssssssssssss!!!!! i could eat it 3 times a day.. in fact i just had it for dinner b/c i had a pretty heavy lunch today.

dara516

Cerel is absolutely the best! I was just thinking today how much I'd love to eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, lol. #yum

For you Cheerio lovers out there...stay far far far away from the new Multigrain Cheerios PEANUT BUTTER. It's absolutely delicious!! The thing about it is that a serving size is 3/4 cup instead of the usual 1 cup. Hmmmm....maybe that's what's for breakfast tomorrow. The only time of day where self control is somewhat good. If I were to have it as a snack tonight, I would finish the box off.

CMmrsfloyd

Mmmmmm, multigrain cheerios..... Cinnamon toast crunch...... Frosted mini-wheats..... OMG I could live off of cereal. I used to eat it like 2 big bowls at a time. NOW, I try to restrain myself. I actually will NOT eat it for breakfast any more - I need protein with my breakfast or else I'm hungry again in an hour. I DO have it for snacks sometimes, but I will actually pull out my kitchen scale and pour out 28g (or whatever the serving size is) and snack on it dry. YUM. I use my kitchen scale so that I KNOW the serving is accurate.

I'm trying to cut down on cereal, but it's so hard. I LOVE it! Cinnamon Life is my favorite

krika1

I love all the fiber one cereals with the unsweetened almond milk! YUM! I could eat it all day but don't.

jesserussellnoll

OMG YES! And it's only become an addiction this past month! I've been eating Multigrain Cheerios at least once a day since January 1, I don't even know why?!?!

OMG cinnamon life, I forgot about that. I could eat the whole box if I wanted.

christina571

YES! i love cereal so much! i used to eat apple jacks, fruit loops, fruity pebbles, and my favorite...cinnamon toast crunch! and all the other sugar-packed cereals. haha but now i stick to Kashi Go Lean cereal with some almond milk, and it's still so yummy! cereal is the best :flowerforyou:

garlic7girl

We are kids still looking for the prize and don't mind eating the whole box! LOL!

My wife and I have a huge stockpile of cereal. I coupon and get it nearly free. I prefer the lower sugar kinds, while she likes the sweet kinds. I love how with the low sugar cereals you get a huge bowl for relatively few calories. BTW, the new Dulce de Leche Cheerios are awesome! My absolute favorite cereal is corn chex.

Ooh, I love cereal. In fact, I just dug into the box of Captain Crunch Berries as a snack, no milk. :-) I really shouldn't have, but I'm gonna go work it off on the Wii, so. :-)

I usually only get the (pseudo) healthier kinds - and generics - the honey nut cheerios, crispy rice, the chex-type, etc. But every now and then (usually on a great sale) I'll get the more sugary kinds - Life, Captain Crunch, cocoa puffs, apple jacks. I've been on a Crunchy Nut Corn Flakes kick lately. I love the strawberry Special K too, but that has to be name-brand...the off-brand has a funky flake taste, to me. I won't do generic corn flakes/frosted flakes either.

It's more carbs than I need, I'm sure, and way more sugar, but....I just love it. I love my milk, too.

One of my favorite treats was to pour a big bowl of one of the basics, add frozen blueberries, then pour the milk over so it freezes up. And then add a splash of vanilla creamer. Mmmm. I'm not sure I want to waste the calories on it now, though! Waaaah!

LOVE Lucky charms... I always save enough calories to have a bowl at night... with some Light Silk Vanilla Milk.... so good!

rickpick99

I love Cheerios with Banana, great with 2% milk but also very good as a dry snack.

seekingthepatienceofjob

I do like eating cereal!

I havent eaten it in a long time....but I recently (2 days ago) I just went and boguht some at Walmart. I have never eaten it before, its called Nestle Fitness and the other one is called Nestle Fitness-with fruit Hopefully I will like it too.

I have never been a huge fan on Cheerios, but anything else I like, most of the time. I like all the calorie and sugar filled cereals, like Cocoa Puffs, those Mini Wheats, any Kelloggs.....yes, I definitely enjoy eating cereal
