    Come come. Shreddies is just air-biscuits, devoid of pretty much everything except air & Scargill's left-over hair.

    I could murder a bowl of crunchy nut cornflakes right now...



    ..... does that make me a cereal killer?
    Nobody told me we had a communication problem

    Plain Oats So Simple for me. with Honey or sugar.

    although cereal of any kind at anytime of the day is a winner :D

    This isn't trolling, or being a Grammar Nazi (ok it is), but we buy our Weetabix on a permanent basis in our house. It just works better for us. YMMV.

    Sorry. It just made me larf seeing that sentence. :)

    In my experience weetabix are more of a temporary arrangement...particularly when accompanied by dried apricots

    Cornflakes with (bought separately) Tropical Fruit and nut (From Morrisons).

    Covered with ice cold ORGANIC semi skimmed milk.


    (Buy organic milk, read the research)

    Weetabix, bran flakes or corn flakes, but only if crushed to almost a powder. That said I've not had any breakfast cereal for about a year....

    Hi,
    Porridge with salt and occasionally a bit of cream.

    Cheers,
    W.

    PS Or Bran Flakes... I'll probably go back to those for a bit if summer arrives.

    currently enjoying oatibix flakes....again with a selection of dried fruits....

    porridge in the winter....

    i can't have coco pops in the house....the girlie has a bit of an addiction problem with chocolate flavour milk.....I have bought them...just never been quick enough to actually get to them before she has consumed the lot.

    Weetabix x2 plus Muesli (from Lidl with added oats and bran 'cos it's too rich) then All-bran on top. Fill the bowl with cold milk then add dried apricots/dates/prunes and sultanas/raisins. Yes it does spill over.

    Breakfast is my favourite meal of the day.

    Aldi's equivilant of Wheetos, frosties and weetabix. And anything with those mini marsh mallows in.

    Weetabix x3 with All Bran on top (to keep it crunchy) and raisins.
    Takes me about 15 minutes to get through all that. Keeps me regular though...

    Weetabix for me. Three covered in fully skimmed milk and topped with sugar, bannana or rasins.

    Having had skimmed milk forced on me as a child (mother was always on weightwatchers) anything else tastes like drinking cream!

    Sugar free muesli, 2 x handfuls of pumpkin seeds, 1 x dried cranberries, 1 x chopped dried apricots, 1 x moist prunes, 1 x brazil nuts and sliced banana all washed in skimmed milk.

    Takes some chewing I can tell you! :lol:

    Followed by New York bagel lighted toasted, buttered and crunchy Sunpat peanut butter.

    By the time you finished that, start planning for lunch :)
  • Honest reply- Honey Cheerios!

    Realistically- whatever is on offer at the ASDA across the road (this is no recommendation of asda- other supermarkets are available!)

    Currently on Frosted Shreddies. (£1 for 500 gram box)they are ok- better than the Chocolate version.
    The beatings, horsewhippings and torture will continue until performance improves to an acceptable level. This may take some time.

    I've just read this entire thread and now want to eat breakfast cereal until I puke :lol:

    Agree on the Dorset Cereals - just so good, all of them, Mrs SS got me a variety pack of the little boxes, nomnomnomnom yummy

    Mind you, you do get an achy jaw from all the chewing :shock:

    It's just a hill. Get over it.

    cereal rules. must say i've not had any of this dorset stuff, might have to go get myself some. agree with others, shreddies are a staple, though I do enjoy a good bowl of nestle clusters and before they disappeared a few years ago (seemingly to have come back again) golden grahmes

    The best isn't necessarily what I eat.

    Sadly i'm a most weight per pound spent man, so look for offers on substantial cerials which offer some alternative to utter blandness. i.e. rice crispies or corn flakes (why anyone likes these god knows?)

    Else I do like ricicles, but that's purely psycological as I was never allowed them as a kid.

    Tesco Value muesli, with added chopped walnuts, kiwi & banana

    But if it didn't cost the earth, I'd be eating Acai with granola & sliced banana every day

    the scargill's hair comment leads me to believe that you are mixing up shredded wheat and shreddies....
