What cereal do you eat?

[Commando]

I'm almost exclusively on Grape Nuts right now b/c of its protein content. 6.3 grams per serving (1/2 cup). That's a ton more than any other brand cereal out there.

[Commando]

well almost. BTW grape nuts at 3/4 of a cup comes out to 9.45 grams of protein, so close. And it's way cheaper than special K if I'm not mistaken. It's also great in yogurt.

Cereal is a pointless calorie drain. Look at the calorie content with 1/2 cup of milk. Just go get one scoop of a good protein powder and for similar calories you can get about 3x-4x the protein.

I give a nice to SpaceGhost for his reply, though. It was funny. And if I am not mistaken, he is definitely the resident cold cereal expert.

I need a lot of fiber and am looking for some Colon Blow. I wonder if Space Ghost knows where I can get some of that.

no. I do like protein powders, but those are only supplemental and are largely flushed through the colon rather than absorbed into the body unless you consume during the first 30 minutes of your recovery time after a workout or during. The majority of your protein should come through real food or it's gonna just end up in your stool/elimination stream.

Pretty boring here...just your good 'ol Honey Nut Cheerios for me. Sometimes I have Honey Bunches of Oats to change it up, but this is only when I even eat breakfast. 95% of the time it's a meal I skip unintentionally.

If Colon Blow tastes like cardboard, then you'll love this stuff:

I endorse Kashi. It's good, even apart from its colonic benefits.

[Commando]

Did I read that Protein content right??? WOW! Plus I bet it makes you crap like a walrus!

When did sweetened cereal get worse? I had a bowl of Golden Grahams tonight for the first time in a few years, and they just don't taste like they once did. They're not as sweet as I remember them. I truly don't think it's a memory issue--they are definitely not as sweet as they once were. Has the health movement affected our cereal recipes?

[MarkGrace]

Your tastes have evolved.

You know what pretty much always tastes awesome? Cinnamon toast crunch.

[Donuthole]

Your tastes have evolved.

I swear it is not that. I think they changed their recipe. BTW, have you ever had French Toast Crunch? Better than Cinnamon Toast Crunch, IMO.

As we age our taste buds are gradually deadened. Deal with it.

At this very moment I'm eating the Malt-o-Meal version of Captain Crunch with Crunchberries. It's awesome.

I'm currently eating blueberry frosted mini-wheats. Insomnia has not been good to my waistline.
