I used to eat cereal, but only ever ate it dry. I didn't put milk it in. Nowadays I don't eat cereal.

I don't eat cereal unless its miniwheats nowadays. I don't stick oatmeal in the microwave. All I use is hot water. I can't eat microwaved oatmeal.

I like a similar cereal to Mini Wheats- Sainsburys Apricot Wheats.

I didn't used to eat cereal till I moved in with my girlfriend at 29. I usually eat a bowl for breakfast or lunch if we're eating out for breakfast(we go to bed late & get up late). I only eat it dry cuz I don't like milk. I eat Reese's Puffs & Cocoa Puffs

I didn't until recently, but I've really taken a liking to an off-brand of Cranberry Almond Crunch, which doesn't get milk. I like frosted mini wheats with milk, but I recently discovered they have gelatin in the frosting, which I won't knowingly eat as part of being vegetarian. As a kid I'd tolerate more kinds of cereal, but preferred them dry and was never a huge fan.

Cheerios with almond milk and fruit... I eat that most mornings, unless I decide to cook something.

Not very often, though it may not be a bad idea...it probably would be good to try and eat breakfast before work, but its always hard for me to eat in the morning.

Also though I like all the kinds of cereal people hate, I prefer the unsweetened grains and what not, the most sweetened I like is Kix always did like that cereal. But yeah everyone else can have all those chocolaty, sugary kinds I'll just stick to the boring unsweetened stuff.

I never ate breakfast before school or work because I got up too late & I'm also a very picky eater who cant cook so & my mom would usually cook something I like 1ce a day or pull something out the freezer that I like. I would eat one big meal a day besides a few snacks unless I ate out while I was at work or bought food. I started eating 3x a day when I moved in with my girlfriend because I started taking supplements & more meds.

IDK for me its like my stomach isn't awake yet or something, because I just don't feel like eating...doesn't help that brushing my teeth seems to induce nausea, I've even thrown up slightly from gag reflexes when brushing my teeth, really not sure why that always happens...but yeah that certainly doesn't help with trying to convince myself to eat something in the morning.

Don't eat store bought cereal.
Will eat oatmeal or home made muesli.

I don't eat cereal much anymore. I used to until a just a few years ago. I'd usually eat cold cereal and milk during the warmer months, and oatmeal in the winter. I almost never get up early enough to eat it for breakfast. Sometimes if a cereal I really like goes on sale I'll buy it to have as a night-time snack instead.

Not long ago I had Cookie Crisp cereal for the first time. I think it was only available where I live for a limited time. I remember seeing TV ads from the states when I was younger where the mascots were a cartoon burglar and his dog who'd try to steal the cereal but they always get caught by a Keystone-type cop, but they brought back the cartoon wolf who was the original mascot on the box. :)

They now have maple Cheerios and pumpkin spice Cheerios out now. I've been curious to try them, but thanks to Commercials I Hate.com eating any type of Cheerios is the about equivalent of devouring live puppies. Or even dead ones. :skull:

I like cereal, but I don't eat it every day. Usually I just have toast, but when I'm feeling particularly hungry I have a bowl just before my toast.

I've never been the type for sugary cereals like Coco Pops or Lucky Charms. I prefer cheap cornflakes in warm milk, and fruit granola or Cheerios in cold milk.

I can't eat any cereal dry, though.
