    What is your favorite Cereal?

    Oatmeal aside.....what is your favorite Cereal when you consider both taste and nutrition? I've seen FiberOne and All-Bran mentioned several times around here. I'd like to find a few good ones without spending $300 to sample them all....

    Today I had Kellogg's LowFat Granola w/raisins Cereal. It was fantastic. Added a few more raisins and it was excellent.

    Per 2/3 cup
    3g fat
    48g carbs (17g as sugar, 3g dietary fiber)
    5g protein

    150 mg sodium

    FiberOne! FiberOne! FiberOne!

    Aside from that, Kashi GoLean! Crunch is excellent, as well as Uncle Sam's.

    Count Chocula.

    We tend to think of Sisyphus as a tragic hero, condemned by the gods to shoulder his rock sweatily up the mountain, and again up the mountain, forever. The truth is that Sisyphus is in love with the rock. He cherishes every roughness and every ounce of it. He talks to it, sings to it. It has become the mysterious Other. He even dreams of it as he sleepwalks upward. Life is unimaginable without it, looming always above him like a huge gray moon. He doesn’t realize that at any moment he is permitted to step aside, let the rock hurtle to the bottom, and go home.

    When I consider buth taste AND nutrition related to my physique goals, they all suck. If I consider just taste, I like special k and golden grahams(before they get soggy, lol). Right now I eat 1/2 cup of All Bran Extra Fiber cereal in the morning with my protein shake and apple. It's not very tasty, but it has(I think) 15+ grams of fiber per 1/2 cup. Gotta have plenty of fiber when you're on a high protein diet - your butt will thank you.

    My favourite cereal is the same for both taste and nutrition.

    McCann's Irish Oatmeal

    Steel cut, not rolled. A bit nutty in flavour and a bit chewy if you cook it just right. Yum. Lowfat, high fibre.

    Oops, noticed you said oatmeal aside. Ah well. I don't generally eat 'cold cereal' because for the most part, the ones that taste good are crap for you. The ones that are good for you taste crap.

    For taste : Count Chocula

    For health : All bran buds - a couple tablespoons gives you a lot of soluble fibre

    Cinamon Toast Crunch and Lucky Charms. I have a box of each in the cabinet. I get to consume them (yes both at once ! ) when I reach my goal weight. I haven't had either in about 8 months.

    I don't know about many with much nutritional value besides fiber...except for Total and that's good.

    Raisin Bran

    Wheaties

    Smacks (*salivates*...this has been a childhood favorite of mine)

    Corn Flakes


    But now I'm lactose intolerant and Lactaid doesn't seem to fuckin' work (my brother says it's the calcium...maybe), so I'm out of luck.

    Total is a great cereal....taste is a personal thing, but it works well for me, and the vitamins and minerals in it cant hurt too much
