Praising a cereal (LOL)

Tried the new Cinnamon Chex. Really good cereal.

They got 10 kinds of Cheerios now. Guess Chex is jumping on band wagon. Strawberry Cheerios, is pretty good, too.

I used to make party mix all the time with the 3 kinds of chex, but, quit.

To much salt. Between the seasoned salt, onion salt, garlc salt, pretzels, onion and garlic powder. Cheerios and cashews. Just eat dry cereal out of the box now and try to find salt free pretzels.

That sounds good sharke, I love cinnamon.

The new Pumpkin Spice Cheerios are delicious. And to save people time, I couldn't care less that they're less than healthy.

I really don't like cereal but I found one I really really liked. Kelloggs Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. Well after chasing it around town and listening to different excuses Kelloggs finally told me they were discontinuing it. They told me to check Amazon. I found it there for $12 a box. I dared not do that.

So no more cereal for me. And no hopes of ever tasting it again.

Wish something would be even similar. Probably should not have been eating it anyway.

I love the Fiber One cereal, the original, none of the fruit added stuff. But then, this is the only one I've tried. I had it dry as a snack. It's wonderful!

sharke, I've been buying chocolate Cheerios since it first came out, and then when strawberry Cheerios made an appearance this summer, it immediately replaced chocolate! lol! I too eat dry cereal and love it, and this strawberry one eaten dry, tastes creamy and smells so good!

I like the frosted cheerios. I give a small handful of plain cheerios to my pooch every morning. He knows when it's time for his "breakfast" and he runs into the kitchen and does what I call his cereal dance. He bounces and turns circles til he gets them.

I also like the commercial with the little boy getting the milk and cheerios for him and his dad. He mixes different flavors of the cheerios. So cute

I like the Multi Grain Cheerios. They are slightly sweet and are good eaten dry as a snack.

I never thought of dry cereal as a snack.

I think I will give it a try.

Pumpkin first, if I can find it.

Ooh - favorite dry cereal as a snack - Reese's! They are kind of like Cocoa Puffs, except that they are choc & pb, AND they are less hard/crunchy. Quite lovely for a not healthy little snack.

The only weird thing is that they have all this stuff on the box about how healthy they are. Uh, I don't think so. But they ARE tasty!

I am not a huge cereal lover, so I only eat the boring kinds that are good for you for breakfast sometimes. If I am going to eat sugared stuff, it isn't going to be cereal. I'm like that by Kind bars and such too. I'm going to grab a little Snickers and get it over with! LOL!!!

In order to keep from balloning up to the size of Dodger stadium I have to employ mind tricks. Since I'm the type that can't eat just one of anything I focus on stuff that you can sit and stuff and not gain 3 lbs in one sitting.

Stuffing food: popcorn, dry cereal, Sunkist gels, etc

@Mary Bailey If you're looking for the Pumpkin Spice Cheerios I found them at Target. They didn't have them at my market which is usually good at stocking new items.

Also, I noticed the idea of chocolate appealed to some people so I thought I'd mention Special K makes a Chocolate Almond that's pretty good. Okay, really good, lol.

I haven't tried the Chocolate Cheerios yet, but I think I will after reading this thread, along with a few others that also sound really good.

Hi @SusieQ_2,

I'll have to look for these. They sound really yummy!

I love anything with pumpkin in it, especially at this time of year.

We like to eat Cheerios here.

I bet my husband would also like the strawberry Cheerios that were mentioned, too. Will have to look for those, as well!

Best load up on pumpkin my foodie friends LOL

May be a bad yr. always something weather related you know

I buy a whole year's worth of pumpkin pure every fall, now.

BTW, the pumpkin puree where you add your own spices is so much better if you ever decide you might want to try it. I go pretty much by the recipe on the can except I cut back a tiny bit on the cloves and bump up the cinnamon a fair amount. (you can tell by the smell of the mixture when it's right)

Oh, and I also cut back on the sugar just a bit.
