50 comments

1. Captain Crunch

2. Fruity Pebbles

3. Frosted Flakes

4. Cheerios or Captain Crunch.

5. Coco crunch.

6. Plain Cheerios

7. Cinnamon toast crunch

8. Kix was my favorite that I regularly got. But Corn Pops, Honeycomb, CTC, or Apple Jacks were all favorites when I got the single-serving mix pack on vacation. My sister and I would fight over those ones.

9. Honey Nut Cheerios

10. Count Chocula

11. Kix!

12. Crispy Critters!!! I loved them. My mom didn’t let me eat sugary cereals, but this one was ok for some reason. Otherwise, corn flakes, Crispix and Cheerios which I still love but I moved to another country that doesn’t have them and I miss them so so much.

13. Wheaties

14. Easily Captain Crunch. Followed probably by Coco Puffs.

15. Just ordinary Cheerios, but _not generic supermarket-brand ‘toasted oats’_. There’s a particular toasted grain flavor that I really like.

16. Either Captain Crunch or Cookie Crisp depending on if I wanted chocolate or fruit flavor that day.

17. Quaker Oatmeal Squares. They were on the pricey side so we didn’t get them often, but to this day they’re still my favorite cereal.

18. Honey Comb.

    Now, hear me out, its even better dry after leaving it out in the open to get a little stale and chewy.

19. Apple Jacks and Cinnamon Toast Crunch probably tied.

20. Cocoa Krispies. Back when it had the caveman.

21. Reese’s Puffs followed by Cap’n Crunch with Crunchberries.

22. Fruity Pebbles

23. Lucky Charms.

    They were magically delicious.

24. Ohs

25. Froot loops.

26. Count Chocula

27. My mom never bought sugary cereals. NEVER. I grew to really enjoy old-man cereal, like Wheaties, Corn Flakes, Grape-Nuts, and Raisin Bran. Wheat / Corn / Rice Chex, Kix (slightly sweet), all are good. I particularly like Grape-Nuts that have soaked in milk for long enough to be soft and sloppy.

    As an adult, I think Reese’s Peanut Butter Puffs cereal is my favorite. Cap’n Crunch is also pretty dope, with or without Crunch Berries.

28. Was, and is Lucky Charms

29. As a kid? Just as a kid? Shit, I’m 35 and I still eat cereal.

    Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Frosted Mini Wheats.

30. Whatever had the best prize in the box.

31. Quisp, it had little flying saucers. Like Cap’n Crunch with less roof of the mouth bleeding.

32. Cinnamon Life.

33. Lucky Charms

34. We were poor, pre food stamp days. The go-to was generic plain corn flakes. My dad tried to “fancy them up” from time to time by topping them with leaded paint chips of of the peeling windowsills. This added a level of sweetness to the bland cereal.

35. Apple Jacks

36. Lucky charms and Cookie Crisp (separately lol)

37. Coco Pops

38. Oreo O’s pre creme marshmallows

39. I was cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.

40. Cap N Crunch & Life

41. Weetabix, slathered with a thick layer of butter mmmmm delicious.

42. Golden Grahams, Reese’s puffs or POPS!

43. Cookie Crisp

44. Froot Loops. So crunchy you could irritate your mouth eating your way through a bowl, but so full of amazing completely artificial flavor! And the milk left at the bottom of the bowl when you where done? Pure, sugary go-juice!

45. Golden graham’s.

46. Lucky charms was like crack for me growing up, I’d left alone I could finish a whole box by myself in like 1 hour. I’ve since grown out of eating it but occasionally will buy a box to relive the good days.

47. Cocoa Puffs.

48. I was a freakin weirdo as a kid & loved bland cereals (still do). Forget about captn crunch and froot loops…. My fave was puffed rice!

49. Apple Cinnamon Cheerios

50. Capt’n Crunch. Almost never got to eat though because my mom took a nutrition class once in college
