Mine was Corn Chex, but they no longer sell it in the UK. They stopped selling it about 15 years ago. Now my favourite is Frosted Wheats.

Lucky Charms (Marshmallow Mateys are an excellent alternative!)

Coco Pops - have to be the proper ones

Crunchy Nut (cornflakes)

Sugar Puffs (which are now called Honey Puffs I believe, I’ve not had them since so don’t know if the taste is different!)

I could easily demolish a box of shredded wheat bite size in one sitting 😚

Crunchy Nut Cornflakes - I don’t allow myself to buy it as I could practically inhale a 750g box in about 3.5 seconds.

Fav when I was little was Crunchy Nut Cornflakes.

Fav now is either Cookie Crisp or Nesquik. Lion cereal is delicious too. I eat Special K or Bran Flakes when I'm trying to be healthier Hmm

Anyone remember the Ricicles with marshmallow pieces?

Shredded wheat cubs in hot milk in the winter.

Used to be: Coco Pops or cornflakes with sugar & the top of the milk. Or crunchy nut cornflakes with sterilised milk, which reminds me so much of my nan. Or Start & raisin splits - remember them?

Now I don't really eat cereal any more, I tend to sprinkle it on yoghurt, rather then have a bowl of it. I do like Country Crisp or more usually, the own brand version, any flavour, granola and Nestle Clusters.

Is anyone old enough to remember Kelloggs Sugar Stars? Sooty on the packet. I thought I was going to actually die of grief when they stopped making them due to kids teeth falling out

I currently have in:
Cornflakes
Shreddies
Cheerios
Peanut butter clusters.

I always have a few types, but I do insist on a box being finished before I'll buy another, Dd has asked for coco pops next.

That's kind @steff13 but would cost too much to post them over but I do appreciate the offer. They do do them on amazon but quite near. May treat myself one day Smile

I've never been but hear it's very expensive! I'd like to go though would be worth it if they had corn chew!

How's anybody been to the serial killer restaurant? I'm using dictation, so I don't know if it wrote serial killer correctly or not, but I am talking about cereal the food. Anyway, has anyone been? This thread made me think of that. I think they were charging 3 pounds for a bowl of cereal though.

Jordan's Raisen and Almond Granola - have tried lots of cheaper ones but none are as nice.

Lucky Charms and Golden Nuggets.

Occasionally still treat myself to a box (whilst trying not to let the toddler see as she'll want to share).

I try and stick to shredded wheat etc now... boring healthy...

Nesquick cereal and wheetos - don’t have them now but I could probably much through a whole box. (Did when I was pregnant with my first).
Also really liked Start as a kid and have had it a few times as an adult.

I loved Wheetos before they changed the recipe years ago. Now they aren’t that nice - less sugar.

Also lucky charms - I expected everyone’s answer to be this!

Now Krave

I loved bran flakes above all other cereals (I know, weird!) also shreddies were good. When I moved to the USA years ago I discovered grape nuts. In the winter on dark cold mornings, a bowl of grape nuts heated for a few minutes in the microwave with milk/soy milk is absolute heaven, like a grainy, nutty porridge mixed with the creaminess of the milk! Strangely I haven't eaten them in years, I suppose cereals & carb heavy breakfasts have fallen out of fashion now.

I grew up in the US, so you had a lot that you don't have here. I think the one I loved was called tricks, it had a rabbit on the box. Anyway, they also made tricks yogurt's, which I absolutely loved. They were these yogurts that would have three different flavored layers. Yum.
