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 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...

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

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.

between4and7 · 22/06/2018 07:37

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!

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

@whybird2k Lidl sell those chocolate curls 😄

IHaveBrilloHair · 22/06/2018 07:52

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.

hellokittymania · 22/06/2018 07:53

Four and seven, I wants looked up you who on Amazon since I loved it as a kid. 24 pounds! I looked up Girl Scout cookies as well, and they were even more expensive.

QueenOfMyWorld · 22/06/2018 08:14

Maple and pecan crunch!

lynmilne65 · 22/06/2018 08:26

Who cares?

CloudIllusions · 22/06/2018 09:11

Was Cap'n Cruch.
Is Alpen.

CloudIllusions · 22/06/2018 09:12

Crunch not Cruch!

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

Babybearsporij · 22/06/2018 09:15

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.

GreenItWas · 22/06/2018 09:15

Shredded wheat cubs in hot milk in the winter.

reek · 22/06/2018 09:56

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?

burblish · 22/06/2018 15:35

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

eggsandchips · 24/06/2018 21:31

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

MyRelationshipIsWeird · 24/06/2018 22:48

Every night this thread comes up on my Threads I’m On and I have to go and eat a bowl of Crunchy Nut cornflakes Grin

hididdlyhoneighborino · 25/06/2018 10:45

I really love granola and stuff like Jordan's cereal. Hubba hubba

minniemummy0 · 25/06/2018 11:20

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!)
