Boy, this really got me thinking. I think I get something different each time I go to the grocery store. Okay, I'll list my cereal favorites in no particular order:

1. Fruity Pebbles
2. Cocoa Puffs
3. Cap'n Crunch, the Christmas version....think it's Christmas Crunch.....then again, they probably had to change it because they didn't want to "offend" anyone ny using the word "Christmas". I find it so goddamn disgusting that you can't say "Merry Christmas" to someone, but it's all fine, dandy, and P/C if you say "Happy Qwanzaa?" Is it a crime to be in the majority? Why does there have to be such a guilt trip for those of us that celebrate Christmas?!? Ugh, okay rant over.
4. Corn Puffs
5. That really cheap, cheap version of Cheerios at Aldi's.

Now for a cereal history lesson:
6. Star Wars C3PO cereal (that was the *****), cried when it was discontinued, circa 1985
7. KABOOM! a cheap, marshmellowed cereal that made your poo turn all sorts of colors
8. Popeye puffed wheat
9. Boo-berry (is that still around?), cousin to Count Chocula
10. The original HUGE Lump of Wheat (big version of miniwheats)

Damn, I wanna go get some fruity pebbles right now....that or the chocolate ones! Just thinking about the fruity smell.....aaaaaaaaaah........
