How appropriate, as I was standing in the cereal aisle for 20 minutes today.

Cocoa Krispies  
Kashi Go Lean Crisp  
Strawberry Mini wheats  
Cracklin Oat Bran  
Grape Nuts Flakes  
and ( **jweb** , don’t look!) Double Chocolate Cookie Crisp

I’m glad someone mentioned Rice Crispies Treats cereal, as it’s clearly the most amazing cereal idea ever.

Honeycombs are also a big thing, they’re so simple and yet very addictive.

I eat a lot of All Bran yogurt bites lately, but only one bowl a day. My binging on sugary cereal days are over, and now it’s practical high-fiber options. Stupid adulthood.

Apple Jacks, and Froot Loops. No milk, no bowl, just straight from the box.

When I was a kid, I used to actually do this with Rice Chex. I never ate an entire box in one sitting, but I could put a serious dent in one.

My friends would probably cast identical votes, as we’ve discuessed this before (and done it):

Fruity/Cocoa pebbles  
Cinnamon Toast Crunch  
Golden Grahams  
Apple Jacks

If you let them mush up just right:

Cookie Crisp  
An old Jay Leno bit when he used to hit the old David Letterman show:

“You know Dave, they have cereal now that is just little chocolate chip cookies. It’s like the cereal companies just gave up and decided to just put cookies in milk and call it cereal. Yeah, give me cookies for breakfast, bacon for lunch and some cigarettes for dinner!”
