Welcome Wednesday: What was (still is) your favorite cereal as a kid?
Hello Everyone,
I want to keep the theme from this week's Miscellaneous Monday going. If you haven't seen that post yet by @Andy Gladstone, go check it out and come back.
Growing up, as much as I watched many cartoons on Saturday morning, it was always complemented by a wide variety of kids cereal, many of which I saw on commercials while watching cartoons!
My question for you this week is what were some of your favorite cereal as a kid!
For myself it would be these four:
So how about yourself? Which cereal were you begging your parents to get based on the commercials you saw?
Have a great rest of the week everyone!

@Jimmy Seddon thanks for the shout out! @Patrícia Fortunato Montenegro also should get credit.
I know this may be blasphemous, but I could never have cereal and milk together. Just the thought of soggy cereal is enough to make me gag.
For some reason, even though my parents always had sweets in the house, we only ever had healthy cereals. My go-to was:
Fun Fact - that OU symbol at the bottom (which looks like a Charlie Brown baseball) means it's kosher.
Fun Cereal Story - when we were about to get married I asked my future wife what she would like me to make sure is in the apartment as I had moved in a week prior to the wedding and was stocking it up. Her immediate response COCOA PUFFS! After being raised in a super-healthy family (no sugar products in the house) she was cuckoo for cocoa puffs! When we had our first breakfast together as a married couple she poured a big bowl, dumped in milk (yuck!) and savored that first bite. It's been almost 23 years and can still hear that first crunch!
Hehehe, thank you, @Andy Gladstone
OMG, Cheerios is amazing! I'll need to buy one this weekend, LOL. You rock!
And wow, I loved your Fun Cereal Story! Kudos to your wife! Congrats!! 🙏🏽🥳
Honey = means "Mel" in Portuguese.
Cheers, buddies!
@Jimmy Seddon Amazing post, taking me back to the amazing memories of my childhood when I was into having cereal in the breakfast.
Though I was not much fond of having cereal (and I am still not) since I never feel full or satisfied after having them, but I still have some favorites as mentioned below, which I started trying/eating mainly because of the commercials:
I love so many it is hard to choose! If I had to though I would say the Halloween cereals! I looked forward to them coming out every year!
Stick to the Lyons and Weetabix references:
