Almost as bad as peanut butter and chocolate cereal. But Chocolate Cheerios are almost just as bad.    Posted:   Dec 14, 2022 - 12:18 PM     By:   Solium   (Member) Solium, they got them in Wal-Mart -- can't say about other grocery stores. I’ll check it out. Thanks!    Posted:   Dec 14, 2022 - 12:20 PM     By:   Justin Boggan   (Member) Sometimes hiding on end caps and not necessarily on the isle with the rest of the cereals.    Posted:   Dec 14, 2022 - 12:23 PM     By:   Solium   (Member) I know it's not a monster cereal, but I'd like to put in a word for Quisp. That was my favorite creature cereal - sort of a disc-shaped Captain Crunch thing. I completely forgot about this commercial and cereal until you mentioned it.    Posted:   Dec 14, 2022 - 12:33 PM     By:   Octoberman   (Member) I loved Count Chocula. When I was a kid my Mom used it as a reward to us. She would buy it and then stash it somewhere. I'd usually find it and reduce it by a small amount every couple of days. Eventually my conscience kicked in and I stopped sneaking it. But by then I was getting old enough to buy it with my own money when I really wanted it. I haven't had it in ages--probably because my subconscious still perceives it as a form of currency! These days I try to stick to generic raisin bran or the like. But once in a while I will get a hankering for some garbage cereal and that's when I'll grab a box of Reese's Puffs or Capt. Crunch. The inevitable remorse that comes right afterwards usually snaps me back in line to the raisin bran (which, in all likelihood, ain't much healthier!).    Posted:   Dec 14, 2022 - 12:56 PM     By:   jenkwombat   (Member) But once in a while I will get a hankering for some garbage cereal... Gee that's funny. I've never seen garbage eat garbage before! Sorry, still having thoughts of SUPERMAN II...    Posted:   Dec 14, 2022 - 1:16 PM     By:   Octoberman   (Member) Gee that's funny. I've never seen garbage eat garbage before! Guilty as charged, my friend.    Posted:   Dec 14, 2022 - 1:25 PM     By:   jenkwombat   (Member) Gee that's funny. I've never seen garbage eat garbage before! Guilty as charged, my friend. Hi, Ock. Glad you took it as the joke I meant it as. So soon after the Great Superman II debate (and talk of the bullying scene in particular), I just couldn't resist...!!    Posted:   Dec 14, 2022 - 8:01 PM     By:   Solium   (Member) I loved Count Chocula.

Crunch (My all time favorite!) to Generic Raisin Brand. We're not showing our age at all! (Been there, done that)    Posted:   Dec 14, 2022 - 8:23 PM     By:   Octoberman   (Member) Hi, Ock.

Ever. This goes for everyone here.    Posted:   Dec 15, 2022 - 7:43 AM     By:   Justin Boggan   (Member) Capt. Crunch does not taste like it did about two decades ago, at least the peanut butter flavor. When it comes to peanut butter-flavored cereal, Reese Puffs is still king. Put some skim milk in that, oh yeah. Also favorites: Honey Oh's (it's a brand, usually just one row on a shelf at Wal-Mart), Multi Grain Cheerios, Corn Pops, the cheap-tasting Wal-Mart brand corn flakes (also softer than the Kellogg's name brand. Just get a spoon of peanut butter, ram it in there, then eat it together). Off hand.    Posted:   Dec 15, 2022 - 7:56 AM     By:   Solium   (Member) Capt.

Crunch though I hardly ever eat sugary cereal nowadays because it upsets my stomach.    Posted:   Dec 15, 2022 - 8:33 AM     By:   Justin Boggan   (Member) New from FSM -- it's Solium Oh's. Full of tasty soylent solium. Contains extra amounts of bowel-movement-inducing ingredients and Olestra! See the dumpster at your nearest Piggly Wiggly today! When you eat Solium's Oh's, you'll be showing us your OH face.    Posted:   Dec 15, 2022 - 11:43 AM     By:   jenkwombat   (Member) I still love Capt. Crunch though I hardly ever eat sugary cereal nowadays because it upsets my stomach. I love it too, but my problem is, it tears up the insides of my mouth. That stuff stays hard and sharp, no matter how much milk you pour on it...    Posted:   Dec 15, 2022 - 12:05 PM     By:   Justin Boggan   (Member) I take hard cereals and ground them up into a loose powder, since my lack of teeth and broken teeth don't allow for normal eating. Just eat it with a spoon that way.    Posted:   Dec 15, 2022 - 12:15 PM     By:   Octoberman   (Member) I take hard cereals and ground them up into a loose powder, since my lack of teeth and broken teeth don't allow for normal eating. Just eat it with a spoon that way. That reminds me of what I used to do with salt & vinegar chips when I was a kid. I'd pour the whole bag into mom's grinder, put it in a bowl, douse it with more vinegar, then ate it with a spoon. Nowadays just reading that back to myself makes my gut twitch!    Posted:   Dec 15, 2022 - 12:21 PM     By:   Justin Boggan   (Member)    Posted:   Dec 15, 2022 - 12:30 PM     By:   jenkwombat   (Member) Being a (sometime) Star Wars collector, these remind me of a *real* cereal which came out circa 1983; "C-3POs". It was basically a Cap'n Crunch-style cereal in a blue box with C-3PO's picture on the front, and a Star Wars character cut-out mask on the back. I still have a folded-down empty box somewhere out in the garage (complete with Luke Skywalker mask intact on the back). So these presumably-fictional cereals pictured above aren't that far off the mark...     Non-Film Score Discussion: Monster Cereals: Frankenberry Count Chocula    << < 1 2 3 4  > >>  Go to page:  1 2 3 4 5 6   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2 3 4 5 6
