Semi-tragedy: No Raisin Bran or Raisin Bran Crunch
Real tragedy: No Cracklin' Oat Bran

Apple Jacks are garbage cereal. Just like Frosted Flakes. I am seriously in awe anytime someone says they like Frosted Flakes. Whatever that glaze is they cover that cereal in makes it disgusting.

I have been eating Cheerios since I can remember. Not all the time, but on the weekends, I still indulge. Occasionally Lucky Charms but only for a few before it's sugar overwhelms me.

I don't buy cereal that much but I do love me some Fruity Pebbles. It's as subtle as a bag of hammers and maybe 90% I like it is nostalgia but man do I like it.

I couldn't tell you the last time I ate a bowl of cereal, but I loves me some Fruity Pebbles. It's the GOAT for my money.

I'll never understand how people can eat a bowl of cereal and feel good afterwards. It's basically like eating a fat slice of cake and washing it down with some milk.

Fruity Pebbles taste like you somehow dehydrated Froot Loops even more and then poured some form of detergent on top. It always has this weird chemical taste I can't place.

If I would not gain 100lbs and then die of adult onset diabetes I would eat puffed wheat in chocolate milk everyday

I love breakfast cereal but it really sucks when the sugar content is right there on the front of the box these days. I try not to eat the sugary stuff but it's hard to resist sometimes.

Also my wife bought me one of those hotel-style dispensers for Christmas and it's awesome.


They're still selling this? I only ever found it once at my local Publix. :<

The more I think about it, I think I don't like the cereals with big individual pieces. Which is why growing up I don't think I ever really liked Apple Jacks or Cocoa Puffs but loved stuff like Cocoa/Fruity Pebbles.

basically super sugary fruit tasting Rice Krispies. only a little smaller.. and they get soggy in milk in ~1.5 seconds. They may even be soggy moments before the milk actually touches them. This needs to be scientifically confirmed.

They are so absorbent that I assume they leech vapor from the air.

Never even heard of Life.

I like good old Corn Flakes and Cheerios. I don't really like sweet cereals. I can't remember the last time I had cereal, really. Maybe at a hotel breakfast bar.

1. Cheerios
2. Honey Nut Cheerios
3. Frosted Flakes
5. Cinnamon Toast Crunch (Fuck yeah! Top 5!)
6. Lucky Charms
7. Froot Loops
8. Frosted Mini Wheats
9. Life

Seems I eat most of the top 10. Used to love Fruity Pebbles but they went weird tasting some years back an besides, Cocoa Pebbles are way superior anyhows. Whatever happened to the "red box" Frosted Mini Wheats? The ones where pieces were so large if ya snapped 'em in half they'd be about the same size as the current default ones. Those were much better. Any *food: but smaller!* is always worse then the original sized version.

Nobody likes Life Cereal. I refuse to believe that is true. Its cardboard in a cardboard box.
I like an still eat Life. Granted I liked it more back when ya could pick one up an see the lil sugar crystals in 'em (would just snack on 'em right outta the box) but they're still alright by me!

not surprised that CTC is "only" #5. Three of the top 5 are "healthy" cereals (ok, Cheerios is legit healthy), and Frosted Flakes is usually considered the "healthiest" sugar cereal.

but in our hearts, CTC is #1 with a bullet.

if fruity pebbles stayed crunchier for more than 3 seconds in milk it would probably be #2 (after CTC)

Let's be friends. CTC is the GOAT.

Who else used to separate all their marshmallows in Lucky Charms, eat the actual cereal first, and then have a bowl of just sugar?
