Here's a serious question about cereal for you all. And please, be honest.

Do you find yourself once in a while (or even regularly) eating a bowl of cereal late in the evening or at night? And if so what kind? Something fairly healthy like granola or one of those semi healthy kinds brands like Barbara's or Cascadian Farms or just good old Sugar Pops or Captain Crunch or what?

Now come on, this is a serious question. No fooling around here.

    That's the only time I eat cereal these days. One of the best cures for the munchies, kill a box to myself over the course of a month, lol. My teeth hate me, but it's sugar cereal. Always sugar cereal.

    Now to go get a bowl of Trix, and I haven't even smoked today (thanks, brianlux, lol).

    Lol, sorry, no crackers, just sugar cereals and Doritos as snacks (and the occasional jerky), lol.

    Glad I'm almost done the Trix, I am actually craving some Alpha Bits at the moment, lol.

    It's usually cereal for me too but if I spy an abandoned box of crackers, look out!

    I'm trying to lay off the more sugary cereals. At this point in life, diabetes is easier to set it. Don't need that!

    I always eat cereal at night, between 10pm and midnight! I decided I needed to eat a healthier cereal this year though and switched to muesli (no added sugar, only completely natural ingredients). It's so bloody addictive though :smile:

    I stopped eating cereal for a while after a friend referred to it as "People Kibble" and had oatmeal instead. But then the hot weather returned. I'm hooked on cereal.

To eat what you want when you want :smiley: - I stopped cereal when I was prego with my first - had no idea too much is not good when prego cuz of the carbs - you don't want your sugar off the charts Lmao I had no idea for like a week I was eating that special k cereal with the strawberries in it haha then went for a sugar test and was border line haha oops.

    haven't had just a bowl of cereal in forever or so it seems. as of late it'd be cheerios w/ strawberry yogurt, blueberries & a banana. what kicks ass is captn crunch, cinnamon toast crunch or frosted mini wheats. haven't ate those in years. cereal for supper kicks ass mostly because there is nearly no dishes to wash other than a bowl or bowls & a spoon or spoons. i like that

    cereal & peanut butter toast was a hit back in the day

    Good choice! Good for you too (though I use vanilla almond milk not cream).

  • Does anybody remember Team Flakes?
    If that gets brought back I will eat cereal again.
    Cereal at night is good when you don't feel like drinking that night because you went too hard the night before.
