After National Sons Day, which I mentioned last week, National Cereal Day, might be my second favorite "national" day of something.
If you've been around these parts for a while, you probably know how much I LOVE LOVE LOVE cereal. I've been a consumer of cereal since I was a little little girl. That's a long long time. :0)
Of course, I don't eat it as much these days as I used to since it's full of sugar--yes even the "healthy" ones are carb-based and carbs=sugar eventually.
We do keep a box of Cheerios in the cabinet at all times as DH likes to snack on them and occasionally he'll get on a breakfast kick, and Cheerios are the easy go-to. I, too, will occasionally break down and have a bowl as a treat. But Cheerios are not my "favorite" and so it's easy to resist the lure of cereal on a regular basis.
When I walk down the cereal aisle, I'm constantly flabbergasted by the sheer amount of cereal flavors / themes. And not in a good way. I have to think there are more than 100 varieties of cereal, most of it sugary unhealthy crap. And I say that as a huge fan of the sugary unhealthy crap. lol.
But we're here to talk about breakfast cereal, and my faves all revolve around chocolate.
If I were going to spend a week eating nothing but cereal (a girl can dream, right?), these would be my choices:
- Frosted Flakes, eaten with chocolate milk
- Corn Pops, eaten with chocolate milk
- Cocoa Krispies, eaten with regular milk
- Frosted Mini Wheats, eaten with either kind of milk, but probably chocolate
- Raisin Nut Bran, eaten with regular milk
What about you? Are you a fan of cereal? What are your favorites?
