    Yes
    :)
    But I don't eat cereal so often anymore

    (and the other one, that we had more often, was Raisin Bran.  And I still like that one, too. I prefer Post brand.)

    Wasn't Rice Krispies a breakfast cereal?  I thought you were asking about regular cereals.  Cereal grains.

    OK thank you.  I recall eating shredded wheat growing up though am sure I had a few others as well.  No haven't touched them since those days. Lots of us growing up in the 1960s - we ate that because we thought we were supposed to and we didn't learn any better until we got on our own and found other people did not.

    Just remembered Cheerios.  And Kix - pretty awful weren't they?  This post was edited by officegirl at February 19, 2019 6:02 PM MST

    I only remembering liking the regular Cap'n Crunch with Crunch Berries, too. Never tried just the Crunch Berries version because I like the regular Cap'n Crunch cereal with the crunch berries together.

    (Believe it or not, as an adult, I even called up the Lucky Charms people on their customer service line and said I liked the original version of Lucky Charms -- and that they had added too many different-flavored marshmallows. Most people must like all the marshmallows, though - - from what I can tell, there are still too many marshmallows for my taste. Ha!)

  • I liked those Corn Pops, but I was never a big fan of cold cereal.  And, I never could understand people putting tons of sugar on their cereal either.  Just too sweet for me.

  • It’s pretty crazy that our parents would feed us that garbage then send out the door lol. Guess just didn’t know better then, maybe.
