What cereal do you eat?

This was my breakfast today:



I know it's healthy because it says right on the front that there's no high fructose corn syrup - though maybe they snuck in some low or even medium fructose corn syrup.

Unfortunately, I love it, so I can't get it free.

Congratulations on the smelly pee.

Now that Cheerios comes in more than a dozen different flavors that's what's for breakfast at my house.
We have Oat Crunch with Cinnamon and Chocolate Peanut Butter. I'll be having the latter this morning.

Cinnamon Toast Crunch will never catch up with Cheerios for total variety. There are currently 18 different kinds.

I don’t like actual Nutter Butters either. These are much better, IMO. The best PB-flavored cereal I’ve had to date.

Those look good. I’ll have give those a spin.

Growing up, we rarely got sugared cereal. If we were lucky, maybe on Saturday or Sunday (and even then sometimes it was cut with plain cereal). Most of the time we were eating plain Cheerios, Corn Flakes, rice cereal, etc. But on Christmas, we each got our own box of sugared cereal from Santa. It had our name on it, so we knew which one was ours. We freaking loved this, and over the next few days, cereal was like our kid currency. My little brother was almost always willing to do some chores for a bowl of someone’s Lucky Charms. I’m pretty sure I once agreed to speak in primary in place of my sister for the remainder of her box of Golden Grahams. It even got to the point where we would measure it out with a measuring cup to avoid an over-pour. I digress.

Mrs. Donut has allowed me to continue the Christmas cereal tradition with our family, but in a modified format—she doesn’t like the personal ownership over each box. So Santa brings enough boxes for everyone, but we all share them. While I do miss the ownership aspect of the tradition, the modification has allowed me to get a little more experimental in the cereal choices, as nobody is tied to a single box. Here’s this year’s offerings:




Im looking forward to trying the Donettes, the Golden Oreo, and the Nila wafers.

Merry Christmas, CS.com!

So now that i've tried all the new cereals, here are my thoughts:

Dippin Dots: Awful. But I wasn't on board with getting those anyway. I tried them just so I could say "I told you so". Those will get left at the in-laws.

Nila Wafers: Very good. When I set them out, it was the first time I noticed they were "banana pudding" flavored, and not the flavor of regular Nila wafers. But I was pleasantly surprised. I don't think they are as good to eat dry as a regular vanilla wafer, but they improve with milk. The wafers themselves aren't super sweet, but there are some cereal marshmallows thrown in to sweeten things up. Not necessary, but not a bad add. I almost wonder it it was an afterhought once they got the final wafers made and realized it needed a little sweeter punch. Would buy again.

Donettes: These are really good, and actually capture the taste of a powdered dounut. But they are super sweet--bordering on too sweet. I would almost prefer them if they were cut with something unsweetened. I may have to give that a spin. They are tasty right out of the box, but a bit on the messy side for that (since they are dusted with a sugary coating). Would buy again.

Golden Oreo O's: Pretty good. In fact, this is a fine cereal, really. Here's the problem--it's like a poor man's version of Honey Ohs. The texture is similar, and the flavor is very close--but not as good. In short, this cereal is worth eating, but only if you don't have Honey Ohs. If you have access to Honey Ohs, there is simply no reason to ever eat Golden Oreo O's.

Donut! We are kindred spirits. We had that exact same tradition in my house growing up with a ton of us kids forced to eat puffed wheat and rice Krispy treats except on the odd Sunday when we fight like dogs over some Cap'n Crunch. This Christmas I got like 4 boxes of cereal on my own. I got the Nilla wafers b/c it looks amazing- haven't tried it yet- and also got s'mores, Sugar Cookie Cookie Crisp and STC Churros.

S'mores is awesome, btw. One of my current go-tos when I want a sweet snack. It reminds me of how awesome Golden Grahams used to be before they changed the recipe and made it all cardboardy.
