There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

When I have the time to cook, I almost always eat steel cut oatmeal (along with 2-3 scrambled eggs on the side ... a bowl of oatmeal only fills me up until about 10 am).
I don't always eat cold cereal ... but when I do ... I prefer ...
1. Golden Grahams. It's an incredible combination of taste and texture. I can eat it with lots of milk or no milk at all. I can eat it for breakfast, lunch or dinner. I can finish off a box in one sitting. Great cereal.
2. Fruity Pebbles. I totally understand why people don't like it (ridiculous amounts of sugar, leaves a weird film on the roof of your mouth, bad name), but for some reason I love it.
3. Grape Nuts. With sugar, of course -- but just the right amount. Too much sugar and I may as well have Cinnamon Toast Crunch; too little sugar and I feel like I'm eating sandpaper.
4. Frosted Mini-Wheats Again, this has great taste AND texture, but I have to be careful with the amount of milk used. Too little and it's too dry; too much and it's too soggy.
This morning I mixed cereals for the first time -- a 50/50 mix of Corn Chex and Honey Smacks -- and it was surprisingly tasty. I might start experimenting with some more mixtures.

Cheerios. Honey Nut Cheerios. Frosted Shredded Mini Wheats. Don't care if it's name brand or generic.
That is my entire list. I do not eat any other cereals
These days, I typically have 1.5 servings of Cheerios with a protein shake of my own make (ice, chocolate protein powder, blueberries, half a banana).Awesomeness now has a name. Let me introduce myself.

I also know the secret to picking out a good watermelon and the method involves no knocking, which practice I find to be completely absurd. The key lies in the size of the yellow spot which is where the melon lay on the ground. The bigger the spot, the more mature the watermelon. I look for the smallest spot and which connotes a slightly under-ripe melon which to me taste better and are more crisp.Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

I have yet to meet a bowl of cereal that I don't like. I could eat it two meals a day no problem. I would say three meals a day, but I've got to make room in my diet for a PB and J somewhere.
My only exception off the top of my head is that Kashi crap that ER apparently likes. Thats stuff is as bad to my gut as those nasty Fiber One bars.

Hey ER thanks for the steel cut oats suggestion. I just picked up some McCann's at WalMart tonight, and I am excited to try it tomorrow morning. It comes in a cool looking canister too.I am a philosophical Goldilocks, always looking for something neither too big nor too small, neither too hot nor too cold, something jussssst right. I'll send you a card from purgatory. - PAC
