I'm about five boxes into Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds, and if I eat one more bowl I think I will surely snap. It's way too healthy and I think my body has developed an aversion to pretty much anything that's good for me.
I've been a die-hard Cinnamon Toast Crunch guy for years, but that got old, too.
I have to find something else I can eat for lunch before I fade away.

Of course. I don't do breakfast. I seldom eat or drink anything until after one in the afternoon. Today was an exception, but I got up around 5:00 (instead of 7:00, when I normally drag my ass out of bed).

Ahh. Well, I hate to say it but I'm a honey bunches of oats (with almonds) fan myself. As for sugary cereal, I go with coco puffs or Reese's puffs.

My 7 year old is on a Peanutbutter Crunch kick right now but If I feel like a sugary kids cereal I tend to lean twords Count Chocula.

The times that I do eat cereal, I eat Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds. It tastes good for a healhy cereal. Honey Nut Cheerios would be my second choice.
I usually don't have time to sit and eat cereal. I keep a few boxes of cereal bars at my desk at work and eat one when I get to my desk in the morning.

My wife is preggo and trying to watch sugar intake - we found it surprising that Honey Nut Cheerios have more sugar than Honey Bunches of Oats.

She should look into the Fiber one cereals. While they don't taste as good as coco puffs, they are still very tasty and good for pregnant women.

I've got 4 in my rotation.
Honey Bunches of Oats with almonds
Shredded Wheat (the big biscuits)
Grape Nuts
Froot Loops (not so sure with the "new" improved flavors)

Tim, the Froot Loops reminded me of Apple Jacks. I put them on my list.
I might try Grape Nuts, too. Last time I remember they were like hard cardboard balls. Maybe they aren't so bad nowadays?

I'd would toss a handfull of your HCM beads in your mouth and chew em up. Imagine that with better flavor and viola! Grape Nuts.

Gotta go with Trix, they're not just for kids!
My wife gave me crap for eating 'unhealthy' cereal. She eats some sort of organic Kashi granola type stuff. Turns out my Trix has more vitamins and less bad stuff per serving. Granted, that's because the percentages are calculated by weight and the serving size is volumetric, so the heavier Kashi cereal takes a hit... but still, I won that fight

I eat Grape Nuts with lots of milk and just a sprinkle of sugar. They're still hard, though, but I like the change of pace.
They've done some "improvements" on the Froot Loop flavoring. Not sure I'm a fan.
