It seems cereal companies really have it easy. They don’t really have to put that much effort into their food. How much variety is there in a box of cheerios? And so because of this distaste towards those who get off easy, I personally enjoy a cereal that has a spectrum of tastes to it. My favorite is honey bunches of oats with almonds. How about you guys? ---

Count Chocula- the trick is, you have to let it soak in milk just until the marshmallows are softened. ---

Froot Loops are in fact the food of the gods. All other cereals (Frosted Flakes excluded) are just pretenders. ---

Cocoa pebbles it is, followed closely by pebbles of the fruity variety. Gotta love a cereal that turns your milk into semi-solid sugar liquid. ---

It’s been mentioned but it bears repeating. Corn Pops. I’ve been addicted all the way back to their _Sugar_ Pops days – a good 30/35 years ago. Cripes, I’m old! :eek: ---

Weetabix, Cornflakes, Frosties. These are the cereals of the righteous. All other cereals are the scabs of the devil. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/whats-your-favorite-cereal/149929.md?page=2)
