LIFE Cereal, That Is
I've loved LIFE Cereal since I was a kid and just finished the first box I've had in a looooong time, and dang that cereal tastes just as good as I remember. I could sit down and eat a whole box...easy!

HAHAHAhahaha...

Just thinking about the guy that wrecked William F. Buckley's sailing yacht... hit a bridge near NY City back in the 70s and got the nickname 'Captain Crunch'.

Buddur has great taste in cereal...
Captain Crunch hurts my mouth. On the other hand, there's nothing like soggy Life cereal. I love it too.

Crunchberries rule! They do tear up the roof of my mouth , though. You need to let 'em soak for a while.

I'm a Cinnamon Toast Crunch junkie, with good ole Frosted Flakes as a strong backup.

It's funny, after years of looking at the box and saying nah, I don't want to spend $4.00, what if I try it don't like it. Long story short. $4.00 later and total YUCK! Oh well!

What, tango? Grape Nuts? I love 'em. You gotta let 'em soak in the milk a little while though, if you want to have teeth when you're old.

Has anyone ever had or heard of Red River Cereal? The outfitters we used when canoeing through Quetico Provincial Park in Ontario used to pack this sh** for our breakfast. I just remember it tastes like bird seed.

The amazing thing is to watch the fruit-and-nut crowd eat that stuff with soy milk on it, while professing how great it is.

It seems that with regular breakfast cereals, it's unnecessary to opine about how good it is. Usually the only sounds you hear are "Chomp chomp chomp chomp"...

I'm a big fan of Cheerios, Frosted Mini Wheats and plain, old corn flakes. I'm afraid to start eating the more sugary cereals out of fear I'll never stop. That Count Chocula casts one helluva mean curse.

I did try Grape Nuts once... I thought I was going to crack my molars on those damn things --- "Try new QUARRY! It's high in MINERALS!"

Nowadays I mix Raisen Bran with Oatmeal Crisp to fight the "mush factor".

I didn't have a problem with how hard it was. I didn't like the taste of Grape nuts.

I also like Granola!

Good God people. Are we just bored or just hungry.

I'm a grapenuts, gronola type. Can't stand the sugery stuff. Not for health reasons either, I just like the way the fruit and nuts cereals taste.

I've been known to pour a little milk over left over gorp from the trail and eat it as cereal.

Try It..............................You'll Like It
Las tnight I made cheesecake French Toast...I mean Freedom Toast.

I whipped some cream cheese and spread it on a piece of bread, took jelly and spread it on another, then put them two together like a sandwich. Dipped them in yet typical egg-milk-vanilla-cinnamon-salt concoction, THEN breaded them in crunched up Total Cereal and fried them to perfection.

One word explains how good they were...
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

Oh yeah, I tried Grape Nuts once too. Nasty!

I used to like Captain Crunch when I was a kid. Apparently the novelty of removing a layer of skin from the roof of my mouth wore off. Who knew?
