    #1 Crispy Wheaties and Raisins (used to be called Crispy Wheats and raisins) Tastes like a sweatened Raisin bran that stays crispy in milk longer than ANYTHING else.

    #2-#5 Any of those specialty granolas at Central Market.

    Man, all the good cereals have already been mentioned.

    Buck, I'm pretty sure we're the only two people under age 50 that actually like eating grape nuts. I used to LOVE eating Grape Nuts when I was a kid. I'd stay the night over at a friend's house, and the next morning they'd be eating their sugar frosted peanut butter caramel fudgy O's, and I'd be eating their parents grape nuts...they were like, "ewwww! Grape Nuts are sick, dude! They taste like cat litter!"

    Of course, I also liked to eat spinach and lima beans when I was a kid, so I was probably just weird.

    For me its not just the fact that Grape Nuts taste like they do, its the disappointment I had when I took the first bite.

    At first I'm like "man, a cereral based on grapes and nuts, how could that be bad, and then I took a bite and I'm like, this isn't grape and nuts".

    WTF is up with the name Grape Nuts. Can anyone explain this to me.

    Another cereal that hasn't been mentioned that is shooting way up my charts, HoneyFrosted Flakes.

    I'm surprised so many people like all the sweetned cereals. I really can't stand those, they are all so overly sweet to me. I do like to add a little bit of sugar to the cereal that I eat, but I just can't bring myself to eat those pre-sweetened ones. When I was a kid I could eat some of them... though I think that was mainly due to the effecitive use of characters like Tucan Sam in their commercials.

    I'm not eating any other cereal due to my cholesterol. I love it though.

    1. Oats 'N More - HCF's version of Honey Bunches of Oats, but MUCH BETTER. More nuttier (HBO has too many flakes, not enough nuts). I regularly eat an entire box at one sitting as a dessert after dinner. That's how much I love it.

    2. Cinnamon Toast Crunch - I love this cereal to death, but the relatively high fat and sugar content make me limit my intake.

    3. Peanut Butter Crunch - Less calories than the above two, but still high fat and very oily. But since I love peanut butter more than anything else, it's a relatively low fat alternative than eating an entire jar or peanut butter in one sitting (with just a spoon)... which I have been known to do rather often as well.

    re: "Grape"-"Nuts" -- The Straight Dope answers the following questions in this link:
    1. Can I market my "100% Lean Beef brand desiccated corn husks" without getting in trouble with the consumer protection people, the FTC, et. al.?
    2. If I can't, how can the Post division of General Foods?
    3. In any case, how did they come to call them Grape-Nuts?

    Frosted Flakes: So sugary, so good, too lazy to just put lots of sugar in Corn Flakes myself.


    Crispix: Just toss in some sugar, damn good cereal.


    Cocoa Puffs: Can't beat the chocolaty goodness.


    Cinnamon Toast Crunch: There's cinnamon, it's toasty, it's crunchy, what else could you want?


    Oatmeal Crisp Almond
