    The Gruel King. :lol: Funny.

    I just like crunchy things. So the crunchier the cereal the better. Or at least one that protects itself against sogginess well. So Crispix is pretty okay - doesn't really go soggy. Corn Flakes are really crunchy... for about 30 seconds, lol. Apple Cinnamon Cheerios are very crunchy for a bit too, I guess because of those razor sharp shards of apply on them, lol. What is the crunchiest crunchy cereal in you people's opinions? I would love to find the crunchiest, non-soggy-in-seconds cereal in existence.
    Oh's are the crunchiest cereal of all and they are damn good. They are so crunchy they hurt. They taste like a souped up version of cap'n crunch/golden grahams. 
    That sounds like what I'm looking for! So crunchy it hurts is just right, lol. I consider Cap'n Crunch and Golden Grahams two of the soggiest cereals on the market, so I definitely hope Oh's aren't too similar!.... Now I just need to find out if Oh's even exist in Canada.

    Just be wary of crunchy cereal, I broke a tooth on Lidl's version of Special K. That's when I switched to muesli and shredded wheat!

    Worth the risk, lol. ;)
    I eat toasted corn nuts, the hardest crunch on the face of the Earth, so I should be okay with any cereal..... Maybe I've gotta try this Lidl's stuff!!

    So, has anyone else seen Sexcereal in the shelves? It claims to boost your sex life.

    I saw some once, in a Bed, Bath & Beyond. Maybe Sexcereal fits into the “Bed” part, or maybe the “Beyond”

    The best snacking cereal (i.e. hand food, no milk) is, of course, Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I could eat a whole box of those like chips. So delicious! Of course they get too soggy in milk.

    I wonder what "happens" if a woman uses the male version or vice versa...

    I miss the days of toys in kids' cereal boxes.  Nary a one now!

    Really?? I don't ever remember trying them back in the day. I think I remember them existing though. My fancy new-ish stepmom reintroduced them to me a few years back and I've been addicted ever since. I don't eat them that often because I'm sure they are terrible for you. And like I said before they are so crunchy they hurt but damn they're good ;)

    Cheerios are pretty crunchy but granola seems your safest bet. I'm a muesli girl, though am currently on shredded wheat with almonds, sunflower seeds and other seedy topping stuff :smile:
    Boiling hot water poured over the shredded wheat... then drained... then brown sugar and milk.

    Mmmmm.

    OMG!  My mom used to make that for us when we were kids.  We loved it! I haven't thought of that in about 150 years! 

    The other thing we did when I was a kid was take cold leftover rice, sprinkle a bunch of sugar all over it and add milk and eat it as cereal.  We kept our dentist quite busy.

    I guess we are old! Good stuff though for sure.

    Remember when Honeycomb used to have the miniature license plates in the box?

    I used to love the prizes. They only came in the junk cereals though so the only time I could get them were when we went camping. I liked them enough to influence my selection.

    Honeycomb!  I don't remember the mini plates but sure do remember this.

    Nothing like watching the commercial WHILE EATING THE COMB, and then back to Bugs & Daffy :)
