To ask wtf was this cereal called?!

I need some early 2000’s knowledge here!

There was a cereal, between 2002-2006, it was squares, kind of like a multigrain style with a honey-ish taste. They came in a yellow box, they weren’t filled squares either just the outline, they had a hole in the middle and definitely weren’t golden grahams.

Its driving me round the bend, I cannot for the life of me remember what they were called

Loved oat crunchies.

How ridiculous is a recommended cereal portion! Now I want them all

I don't know but if I won the lottery I would pay Kellogs to make my own private supply of Start cereal.

I totally thought it was Crispix from your description and then immediately my brain got polluted with golden grahams and I couldn't think what they were called.

I used to love them! I forgot about them but I can taste them now.

Starts are no more???? Noooo

I don't know but I do miss multi grain start. Similar honey coated multi grain ..

I LOVED Start and wish it would come back.

If it was in Australia i would say Nutrigrain?

Love them.

For anyone that misses Start - try Bear Alphabites multigrain cereal. Not quite as sweet but very similar taste and texture!

I miss Corn Pops 🌽

I miss start too. Why did it go away? Maybe we can ask Steve Cram to bring it back.

I also loved the short lived Kellogg’s Hot and Krumbly. Stayed crunchy even when heated up.

On a side note, who else used to fight with their sibling to be the first to get the toy out of the cereal box? 🙋

Miscellaneousme · 14/03/2023 20:33

This thread just reminds me how much I miss Kelloggs Start, all time favourite. Nothing else is the same 😢

Honey Ohs!

It looked like this!
(This is oat bran cracklin) but wasn’t the same brand and this one was in a yellow box

oooh this brought back a sudden and delicious memory!!

so glad they've been identified :)

I used to love sugar puffs.
Not had them in years.

shattered25 · 14/03/2023 20:49

Oatbakes? Xx

blackfriars · 14/03/2023 20:51

Oat krunchies!!! But they’ve changed name now

Sadly I can confirm the modern Sugar Puffs are unrecognisable from the Honey Monsters offerings of the past.
I excitedly bought some around Christmas so my teenager could try, I sang their praises, he wasn't impressed so I had a spoonful, god it was tragic.

VivienneDelacroix · 14/03/2023 20:56

I was just thinking about Start the other day, and now it's back in my head again!

Lulu1919 · 14/03/2023 20:58

There's quite a few types of you type in Kellogg's crackles yellow box

This may be the only product ever to go down in the cost of living crisis!

Justalittlebitduckling · 14/03/2023 21:18

Golden grahams?

Drifta · 14/03/2023 21:24

GuyFawkesDay · 14/03/2023 18:19

You can still get oat pillows! They're not as good as Start but it's something

What? You can still get OK Oat Krunchies?! What are they called now?
