Favourite Breakfast Cereals and where are they now?

[ha ha derry]

Rice Crispies crunched up by hand, boiling milk, fresh cream on top (preferrably double) then some maple syrup. mmmmm 

[Orior]

Mon-Fri    Alpen (as a punishment)
Sat-Sun   Crunchy Nut Cornfalkes, or Frosted Wheats, or Sugar Puffs (as a treat)
At a B&B  Porridge



Q. Why do sugar puffs may your pee smell of the same?

[JimStynes]

Weetos have gone to the dogs these days. Not much flavour off them anyore.

Thankfully kellogs cornflakes will never go away!

Golden Grahams and Honey Nut Loops were hard to beat for cold milk cereals.

for hot milk i loved 'mixtures' too: cornflakes and rice krispies or just 2 weatibix with hot milk and loadsa sugar --magic

weetos were a favourite for a long time but were rank with hot milk

those toys in the boxes were class and i used to get killed for openin a new box to get at a toy when the other box wasnt finished yet!

does anyone remember the wee reflecters you used to get in kelloggs boxes for your spokes --they were magic--i think they were out in the late 80's around the time when stephen roache and sean kelly were at their peak--class

These yokes are ridiculous. More a dessert than a cereal.

I love All Bran Flakes, almond and honey with cold milk.  Then there's three Weet Bix (different over here as they are not as finely ground as weetabix and have sugar added) with bananas and either mango or vanilla yoghurt and a "drizzle" of muesli.

I used to love Sugar Puffs and like others before said, I used to gorge myself on dry Frosties - they're ggreeaaaaattttttt!

Does anyone remember Country Store?  I could never figure out where the grapes went to.  I remember my first taste of Alpen, and I ended up shovelling a pile of sugar on to it as it tasted like cardboard.

Talking of toys, I saved up the tokens for a gyroscope and feck if I know how the damned thing worked.  Also, Cornflakes did a series of North American Indian heads in the early '70s which you could paint.  I could never get Sitting Bull with the big head dress of eagle feathers.

Porridge in our house was always made with milk not water so it was always very creamy and mam would chuck in a handful of raisins now and then.  Bliss.
