    (UK) The original Alpen. Doesn’t bear any relation to that I had in my youth, though. And it makes me fart without ending - I literally walk faster.

    Not close fourths:

    • curiously cinnamon
    • crunchy nut cornflakes
    • fruit and fibre

    None of them are like they were twenty years ago. They’ve changed in a variety of ways.

    I never found one I enjoyed! I think trying to figure out milk to cereal ratio drove me mad and I really don’t like eating them dry at all.

    I don’t buy cereal. I cannot be trusted to have “just one bowl”. That milk is gone. That entire box is gone.

    When I do give in and prepare my bowels for a bumpy 24 hours, I am very partial to Special K and Bran Flakes.

      This. So much this.

      Best in chex mix too, and it’s also super great mixed with other cereals. My favorite is crispix and lucky charms and crispix and cocoa krispies. (NOT cocoa pebbles)

    Weetabix or weetos (though that’s a rare treat)

    I’m just now realising the Weetabix company has my number

    I don’t usually have cereal for breakfast though, usually just black coffee and maybe toast on a weekday and something a bit more extravagant like a fry up or salmon and cream cheese at the weekend

        Honestly for me yeah I prefer a bigger lunch and dinner weekdays usually.

        I also skew kinda late with my meals, ideally breakfast about 10am, lunch between 1 & 2 and dinner I’m completely fine eating at 9pm and in summer actually prefer even later (heat just seems to kill my appetite for food)
