    I don't eat cereal anymore, but when I did I liked Fiber One bran cereal and Kashi Golean. Both options are high in fiber and protein.

    I'm fond of Vector, but I always pair my cereal with some fruit. Cereal is not meant to do it all alone, unless you want to go way over even the serving size on the box.

    I snack on Quaker corn squares, dry. It helps me hit my iron RDA.

    I like all bran flakes, shredded wheat or quaker squares. I eat it on a serving of cottage cheese, with cinnamon, splenda and a cut up apple. Sometimes I'll eat some peanuts or almonds on there too.

    If you want to be full off cereal, you need to pair it with some protein and fat.

    Oatmeal in the morning...cold cereal at night for a snack for me. It never fills me up enough to make it to lunch.

    At night I love Multigrain Cheerios, Special K Red Berries & Chex.

    I do like Fiber One...I eat it almost daily in my yogurt. I also like Special K with blueberry clusters. Every once in a while, I get a hankerin' for Honey Nut Cheerios or chocolate chex for dessert.

    I'm hooked on Trader Joe's coconut at the moment, or Oikos Lemon Merengue or Key Lime!

    I'm not a fan of cereal, as it doesn't satiate me. I prefer eggs + toasted english muffin w/ PB2.

    Cereal doesn't keep me full. Usually if I eat it I have it as a snack after dinner or on the weekends. It does not hold me until lunchtime on days that I work.

    I'll second that, lately though I've been eating 1 serving of Kellogg's All-Bran Buds and a serving of Chocolate Frosted Mini Wheats. Although the Kashi golean flavors are really good. Both are high in fiber. I will use almond milk, and drink a protein shake with it. Keeps me going until late morning when I generally have a snack sized protein bar.

    I prefer oatmeal over cereal since it seems to keep me full longer. You can add whatever add ins you like. Lots of people make cold overnight oats too.

    I don't often eat cereal and when I do, it's usually as a snack at work (I don't like cereal with milk so I put a portion into a baggie and just nibble on it throughout the day). My favorites are Puffins, Quaker Oat Squares, Honey Oh's, and Honey Bunches of Oats.

    @Trex5009

    Because oats are a cereal.
    Why wouldn't you regard oats as a cereal (crop) or a breakfast cereal?


    To answer the question - my favourite breakfast cereals are:
    Porridge made with organic rolled oats and hot milk (and a splash of evaporated milk)
    Granola
    Muesli

    A huge bowl of granola with milk, vanilla protein powder and a banana is my long distance cycling breakfast.
