    Yes! I eat it often. It's called semolina here. I do get the other name :D I use 40 grams of semolina, 100 grams of whole milk, 150 grams of water 1/2 ts salt, boil for 10 minutes. Pat of butter on top. Heaven.

    I had it every once in a while growing up by my child hood preference was maltomeal. Splash of milk, lots of butter and lots of sugar.

    Not really sure why I was obese as a child.

    Cream of Wheat rocks! They now have a whole wheat version of it.
    I love this one. I live in BC and can only find it at Loblaws stores (Superstore, Your Independent Grocer, etc).

    I just remembered after reading an oatmeal thread that when I was kid we rarely had oatmeal it was ALWAYS cream of wheat. Doesnit even exist still? do people still eat it? Is it literally just little nuggets of wheat? haha.

    My son (as do I) LOOOOOVES Cream of Wheat. He asks for it for dinner often. The Instant Cream of Wheat is nothing more than an insult to the original and is an assault on my taste buds. gag

    Hubby makes this for himself all the time. It's getting harder to find in the stores, though I can always get it at the Bulk Barn. He cooks his in milk.

    Milk and sugar. Let it sit then scrape off the chewy top layer. Drool.

    I absolutely love cream of wheat and growing up preferred it over oatmeal(now it's vice versa). I used to love a lot of sugar and butter in mine. Once in awhile I would add cinnamon. I recall going to my cousin's house when I was younger and they would always try to push grits on me instead (they never had cream of wheat there just maypo....yuck) and try to force me to eat it with sugar and butter and I would always cry. They were so mean...lol

    I love cream of wheat. It definitely still exists.

    Truth. I go between that and oatmeal almost every morning for breakfast. Well, and grits too.
