    All of them since they stopped giving away stuff inside...my son is going to grow up in a world where he will never experience the feeling of Getting cereal just for the free toy then having one bowl and leaving it in the press til it goes out of date....F*cking fat kids and their parents who wont accept responsibility.

    Ah yes, remember sticking my arm into the cornflakes looking for the toy. Those little model airplanes were the best.

    Shredded wheat. You'd get more flavour out of cardboard box it comes in.

    edit: was it just in my house that poor people buy healthier cereals? cause all my rich friends ate nice cereals
    No our gaff aswell. The rare time we got the little packs of each cereal, the 8 pack thing, the Frosties and Cocopops were first to be taken (always with arguments about who got what the last time).The rice crispies and cornflakes were never touched. :D

    Weetabix and the bastards that leave bowls of it lying around to become concrete. Worst excuse for a foodstuff ever.

    What kind of wuss has trouble chewing raisins? :D
    Yeah! theres nothing like trying to clean that **** off a bowl when hardens!

    I know its not really a cereal but it is a morning food. Porridge. I hate the stuff. Its bland, gloopy, sloppy tasteless goo. Yeah you can pour tons of sugar, honey or jam on it but thats just compensating for its tastelessness & negates any nutritional benefits.

    Porridge just bugs me. Weetabix would thrash it in a street fight.

    Sugarpuffs are also annoying.

    Porridge probably contains more Cereal than any other 'Cereals' so i would say its a cereal.

    Im super cereal.

    Any cereal that comes in a cardboard box. There's more nutrition in the cardboard box, despite all the clearly unbiased advertising by Kelloggs et al.

    "Special K? Oh look! Kelloggs say I'll drop a jeans size in 2 weeks if I buy it and eat it a few times a day!" - Ehhhhhhh.......no you won't love, it's got 22g of sugar per 100g weight in it, which will give you an insulin spike and leave you craving more sugar and leaving you feel hungrier than if you ate non-processed food.

    "Oh I'm having trouble going to the toilet. Therefore I think I need more fibre. Oh look, Bran Flakes/All-Bran! Kelloggs said it's got loads of fibre in it, I'll buy it so!" - Ehhhhh.........sorry there buddy, there's 4 times more fibre in a medium size potato than a bowl of Bran Flakes/All-Bran. All-Bran - Brillo Pad for your stomach! :pac:

    Kelloggs' marketing department have an easy job!

    The microwave quick oats tub that costs €2....what a rip off. Get a normal bag of porridge for 98c, whack it in the microwave. The exact same stuff!!

    Rhubard on Pembroke Rd charge 3.80 for one portion... 3.80!!!

    Whoever invented muesli should be shot - it's soul-destroying! :mad:

    I don't know why people eat it to lose weight - if there's one sure-fire way of making you dive into a fry-up it's a mouthful of muesli!

    Honey Loops. They only annoy me because they changed from Honey NUT Loops, apparently to stop little Jimmy or Mary having an allergic reaction.

    Giving a small child a foodstuff with nuts in it when you're not entirely sure whether or not they're allergic proves that you're a bad parents an an idiotic person. The clue is in the title-Honey Nut Loops. You're clearly one of those people who requires the "may contain nuts" warning on a packet of peanuts, or "contents may be hot" on a takeout cup of coffee.

    I miss the nuts*.


    *Yeah, I know what I said.

    I love honey loops but hate nuts. I can't understand why would anyone want nuts in their cereal?:confused:

    Nut feast - it was a lovely cereal. Think it came in a green box but I cant be for sure. Used to have it when I was younger. Then they took it off the market. Vanished. Completely gone. Would kill for a bowl of nut feast now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,345 ✭✭✭Dunjohn


    The timing of this thread is perfect for me as i tried Sugar Puffs for the first time this morning and they are among the foulest food i have ever eaten. I

    I'm now stuck with a big box of Sugar Puffs that i'm not going to eat. I would'nt even have the heart to inflict them on someone else.

    Don't! Leave the box in a press, open, for a few weeks. They'll congeal into a solid brick of Sugar Puffs, it's class.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,740 ✭✭✭Asphyxia


    Cornflakes have gotten so boring! Cookie Crisp FTW :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 302 ✭✭Rich1691


    I tend to eat Alpin Meusli for breakfast but it just takes so long to eat I've started skipping breakfast altogether!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,073 ✭✭✭Rubberlegs


    All of em. But only because I hate milk. Its the antichrist:(

    Cocoa Pops- the brown, dirty looking muddy milk is rotton looking.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,975 ✭✭✭W.Shakes-Beer


    Wheetabix (??) I'd rather not eat a breakfast that looks like a bowl of shít.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 767 ✭✭✭HxGH


    When you pour in the cereal not leaving enough room for milk and it over flows. FML
