Would the Ralston-Purina Company please start producing Pizza Chex? I’d never have to go out again. And if anyone can tell me where I can get ahold of some Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs, I’d like to get one of their propeller beanies. ---

I love Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Peanut Butter Crunch, and Lucky Charms. But I’m not a big breakfast eater–in fact, it’s seldom that I eat breakfast at all. I do occasionally eat Grape Nuts, like once every year or so, but I pour tons of sugar on them first. One time a friend’s little brother imitated me by putting a whole bunch of sugar on his cereal and his mother berated him for it. I’m a sugar junkie, let’s face it. 😉 ---

No one mentioned WHEATIES. They are so yummmm. Nice and bland for the morning when your tummy is queasy and they are pretty nutritous(sp). Other heathly ones i love= Crispix it’s been a long time fav. And of course Cheerios, who doesn’t like these? For my sugary cereals i nominate: Cocoa Puffs - the best chocolate cereal. Frosted Mini Wheats bite-size Capn crunch w/ berries. Except now they put in 3 diff colored berries and too many. I wish they would make the original Crunch w/ berries. ---

I have just discovered the joys of Kellogg’s low-fat granola…it’s reminiscent of the wonderful mueslix I had overseas. But when I can’t eat that, I go for Crispix with cold milk. Mmmmm. ---

wring and Max Torque, you’ll get gold stars for today for knowing that. 🙂 I also forgot Fruity and Cocoa Pebbles and Cracklin’ Oat Bran. The Apple Cinnamon Cheerios were quite good too from what I remember. ---

I can’t find it here in Sweden, but I’ve always loved Honey Nut Cheerios. If I find them somewhere, they’re always so expensive… I really like Golden Grahams too, and then there was another kind, but I’ve forgotten what they’re called. They were kinda heart shaped, the texture felt almost healthy, but they were sweet and yummy. You had to eat them really fast, because they got soggy in a minute. Any ideas? ---
