Cmon man - frosted sugar bombs (later frosted golden bombs) powered my school morning for the subpar school lunch!

Eggs for me still, with a side of another protein with coffee.
Not a carbs person in the AM at all, unless there’s no coffee and I have to resort to a Mt. Dew for my caffeine fix.

I remember those commercials as a kid that said something like “this cereal, along with milk, juice, toast, eggs, meat and vegetables make a nutritious breakfast”.

I keep reading that many of today’s young people; meaning those under 35, don’t use dry cereal for breakfast very often. They prefer something they can throw in the microwave, heat & eat. Some don’t want to ‘deal with’ the dirty cereal bowl after eating. Having to wash that bowl is a big bother. That sounds sort of lazy to me, but breakfast should be an individual choice once you’re old enough to do it properly.

I’m allergic to milk so cereal was never a big part of my day. I used to get a box of frosted mini wheats once in a while and just eat them dry.

Breakfast most days is a couple granola bars and coffee. Weekends I make 2-3 eggs and whatever eat is in the fridge. Or, sometimes just coffee.

Right now I’m drinking 2020 Blend from Thrasher Coffee. I ran out of Deplorable Blend.

“Wellville”, the movie to see to complete your investigation into the grain industry.

If one looks at the long list of breakfast meals, there is no nutritional of any other common link.

The real thing, which all breakfast meals have in common, is the speed of preparation. All meals, served at breakfast, are really quick to make.
Cereal is the fastest to make, so that made it the leading breakfast meal.

After my daily paper route if in winter mom would warm me back up with oatmeal and raisins.

Nowadays, 2 cups o’ coffee and maybe a brunchy feed around 2pm. Then a truely light supper of homemade soup, or a veggie medley. We dont eat after 8pm.

If I eat early, it’s usually 1 egg, 1 toast, 1 small piece of fruit.

OK Who remembers cake topping (frosting?) made with Special K and brown sugar, then put under the broiler to crisp up? My mom would make that for spice cake topping, maybe others.

My version wasn’t quite as good as hers, but my daughter often requested it.

Elite propaganda. They want to take cereal away from us. You watch— in 35 years, you’ll be eating gruel, own nothing, and like it. I’ll be dead, so I won’t care. Just let them take everything from you.

I never eat cereal, but I will eat plain oatmeal (no sugar added). I sweeten plain yogurt and oatmeal with 0-calorie stevia or some fruit (fresh, not canned in syrup).

Keep kids from eating the sugar cereal. I think that is what causes ADD. I had Sugar pops and Capt Crunch and Fruit Loops etc as a kid. Looking back I think I was bouncing off walls.

When I was a kid I watched Saturday morning cartoons while I overdosed on Captain Crunch.... while mom and dad were making my sisters.

Now I’m diabetic and the Captain is complicit...Aunt Jemima too.

Worst thing you can put in your body.
I dropped 5 lbs over 4 months just by stopped eating cereal for breakfast.
Now it’s eggs or plain oatmeal with bannana or apple on top.
