Boxed cereal consumers! Do you always consume yours with milk? Do you also consume some cereals dry, like they're munchies? I've done lots of dry munching on sweetish, often chocolatey cereals. I've tapered off on the grazing for a few years, but am not totally immune to the temptations.
The other day of store trek got me to thinking about cereals I'd loved to munch on but supplies indicate discontinuation or inconsistent availabilities at my supermarket.
- "Post® Shredded Wheat Spoon Size® Honey Nut Cereal" are available at WalMart, apparently. I might need to trek there to get my longtime yearning met.
- "French Toast Crunch", which has come and gone and come and gone.
- "OREO O's® cereal", thankfully made a comeback a few months ago after being gone for maybe a year or two.
HEB has stocked various lines of "Filled Squares", knockoffs of Kellogg's Krave cereals. Before Krave, HEB stocked a Mexican filled-square cereal that was delish and inexpensive. And better stuffed than Krave. Back to HEB's Filled Squares, the flavor I really craved was caramel-filled. Disappeared. Dang! In any case, I'm hoping to run into "H‑E‑B Sweet Creamy Filled Squares" some time soon.
My thoughts meandered to the entire stocked cereal cupboard (9 separate brands). Some are healthful with high amount of fiber, for the sensible grown-up focus. Others appeal to the palate (sugar!) despite little fiber.
The lineup in my video shows stagings of current cereals and some empty cereal boxes that represent a few recent consumptions. FWIW, the visuals could nudge you to think about the angel and devil that tug you to consume healthful but kinda boring cereal vs. yummy appeal-to-taste buds cereals that are less healthy to eat.
