I’m partial to some cereal, for snacking purposes, rather than for breakfast…

My current favourite is the new KitKat cereal! What’s yours?

Crunchy Nut Cornflakes for me too

Oat Crunchies
Chex

I absolutely love sugar free bran flakes from the health shop, eaten when soggy!

Also, does anyone remember Start? Loved that as a child.

Interested in this thread?

Nesquick
Curiously cinnamon
Golden nuggets
So nostalgic thinking about these! I rarely eat cereal, probably a good thing based on my choices 😄

idkbroidk · 13/10/2024 20:18

how has no one mentioned curiously cinnamon??? and the churro version!!! the best ever

username3678 · 13/10/2024 20:19

It has to be crunchy nut cornflakes

PhilosophicalCheeseSandwich · 13/10/2024 20:19

Cinnamon Grahams or whatever they're called now.

I made granola for the first time this weekend. Almond, apricot and cinnamon. It's delicious, but knowing me this won't be a regular effort.

M&S Apple and Cinnamon Crunch

wendywoopywoo222 · 13/10/2024 20:26

Some form of fruity granola for me.

Used to love sugar puffs and would happily just eat them for days at a time years ago.

Andoutcomethewolves · 13/10/2024 20:29

Honey nut mini shredded wheat or crunchy nut cornflakes.

I do like granola too if it's nut/seed based (I don't do dried fruit 🤢)

BeyondMyWits · 13/10/2024 20:32

M&S apple and cinnamon crunch here too... deeelish.
I did like the mini choc weetabix until I worked out that a portion size was 15. Did not cover the bottom of my bowl!

I'll never forgive Kelloggs for discontinuing Start, no other cereal comes close to that for me

Same. Absolute bastards.

Fruit n Fibre
Porridge with brown sugar or a dollop of jam
Homemade Bircher Muesli with grated apple
Overnight oats with apple compote & berries

HRTQueen · 13/10/2024 21:30

Mini shredded wheat or rice crispies with a little brown sugar or alpen muesli (I take the raisins out) with cold semi skimmed milk

I had sugar puffs recently forgot how delicious they are

I never have cereal for breakfast but occasionally for tea and will really enjoy it (with a cup of tea of course)

Dogondoolally · 13/10/2024 22:32

Could eat a bowl anytime of day. Faves are mini choc weetabix or cornflakes with icy cold full fat milk and a good slurp of double cream on top. And Shreddies with hot milk and a sprinkle of Demerara.

FluffBut · 13/10/2024 22:33

2 x Weetabix
Candarel
Skimmed Milk

Pumpkittenspice · 15/10/2024 22:47

Just tried the marshmallow pool party cereal (like Lucky Charms). Very nice!!

Crunchy nut or blueberry shredded wheat.

StewkeyBlue · 30/09/2025 10:54

Quaker Oat Crisp

I like the little square pillows.

And Just Right…. Which has just been discontinued 😲 😡

Tgose blueberry shredded wheat things are very tasty, in fact mini shredded wheats in general 😋

lunaswand · 30/09/2025 11:14

grape nuts
bran flakes - made with warm milk so they go all mushy

RaraRachael · 30/09/2025 11:28

My favourite is Coco Pops. I feel a bit like a child choosing it at a hotel breakfast buffet when other adults are getting muesli and granola.
However I don't like the lower sugar recipe so I just stick a spoonful of sugar in with mine,

I am gutted by the loss of Just Right. I'm really particular about cereal. I find a lot of cereal too crunchy or too sweet, but for me this was exactly as described, just right.
