US, Honey Bunches of Oats, eaten dry like a bag of chips.

US - cheerios with a sliced banana, and cinnamon toast crunch

Adding a datapoint for US and Cheerios.

Unless by cereal, OP means type of grass grain. Then my answer is Oats.

Barley crew checking in, wheat and rye are 2 and 3. They make the best beers.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

Beef barley is also one of my favorite soups.

@NineMileTower @SendMePhotos I learned of the fairly hard to find apple cinnamon variety of Cheerios. Total game changer

Golden Grahams, United States

Mueslix. A cereal adopted from other countries that I can now get in the US. Oats, nuts, raisins and dates. Super yummy.

And when I get the craving — Lucky Charms.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

I had lucky charms for lunch Wednesday because one of my schools was about to throw them away. Can't remember the last time i had them. Magically delicious!

Shredded Wheat - UK

Granola with raisins, dried cranberries, dates, walnuts, and almonds with greek yoghurt instead of milk. United States of America.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

France, I donyreally est cereals from breakfast anymore, I'm more of a bread person. But as a kid, I used to mostly e'joh Chocapik and Crunch. Both of them are owned by Nestle if I'm not mistaken, and I now boycott them. Tho I did find some off brand copy of Chocapik and tried it out a few months ago, it tasted just like the original.

Corn flakes with a honey spoon, Portugal

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Porridge. And yes, I do live in Scotland. I have just put some oats in a pot to soak overnight. I will be eating it with milk, and with honey made by bees I knew personally. Yum.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

I'm from Australia, but now live in England.

Cereal? I've not really eaten it since I was a kid. But I always preferred something plain - without sugar or such. Weet(a)bix, porridge, or - if I had no other choice - Special K.

I've always hated sugary stuff before noon. Don't ask me why. Meanwhile, my friends would pile tablespoons of sugar on their sugary super-sugar sugar puffs.

These days, I have a single slice of toast with butter. With a cup of tea (milk, no sugar). Perfection.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Steel cut oats with vanilla and chia seeds and cinnamon and brown sugar, just a tad, mm mm.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Another Scot here and I know it's not a cereal, but porridge.

When I'm having a bad day, the pouches you put some milk in and then microwave for two minutes are a really quick and (presumably) healthy breakfast that tastes good enough.

US-Waffle Crisp followed by Golden Crisp.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Canada - a tossup between cinnamon toast crunch and whatever granola I can get my hands on.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

US, not sure what it’s called because I very rarely eat cereal. Clusters was good but they quit making it so on the rare occasion that I’m eating cereal, I go for something that reminds me of Clusters.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Canada, but I don't really like or eat any cereal. I can't get past more than few nibbles because of how sweet it all is.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Grape Nuts Flakes when I can find it. Hard to find for some reason. :( US.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Weet-bix. Australia

Guldkorn - Denmark

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

I haven't eaten cereal since I was like 12 or 13? I started to prefer spicy salty stuff in the morning pretty young. Give me hashbrowns drowning in hot sauce instead.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I'm from Morocco amd I haven't eaten cereal in decades.

I just eat the cake my grandmother makes, it always tastes really good. Sometimes with a nice milk coffee that I brew myself (infused with chocolate, of course). This is the best feeling I ever have during the day.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

What kind of cake?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago

Razor blade flakes
