Sure it’s available [online](http://www.amazon.com/Quaker-Honey-Graham-Cereal-12-Ounce/dp/B000YPMKRC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=grocery&qid=1257007755&sr=8-1), but why don’t I ever see this stuff in grocery stores anymore? Surely I can’t be the only one who loved it. Besides, buying cereal online (and in a quantity of 12 boxes) just seems… Strange.

I see Oh’s in most of the supermarkets in my area, including the one I work at. I call them “the best-kept secret in cereal” since I’ve never seen them advertised, I doubt many people know about them, they taste great, and they are usually a lot less expensive than most other cereals- in an era where some cereals now cost $5, you can get a box of Oh’s for around $2 or so. Like the box itself says, always a great value.

Hmm, maybe it’s a Midwestern thing since I’ve never seen them in any store I’ve visited to in this area. I envy your Oh’s availability.

They’re still around. Except that they’re now being sold as Zero’s 😃

I just bought a box at Target last month (I’m in Minnesota, so maybe it _is_ a midwest thing). I remembered them differently, and I was disappointed that they tasted a lot like Cap’n’ Crunch.

I’ve seen them in Wal-mart, but not elsewhere.
