Scooby Doo Cereal

A couple of weeks ago H.’s baby gave me a gift of Scooby Doo cereal. Before I even opened it I was sure that it was gonna taste like something from my childhood. I opened it up and as you can see they are shaped like little Scoopy Snacks. They smelled like the old school not available Rice Krispy cereal that had marshmallows. Yes, that was a real thing. This is a good cereal that is super filling. I poured my normal level of cereal (damn near at the top!) and by the time I was done I didn’t even have room for my orange juice. Not sure if this available everywhere but try it if you can. It might taste like something from when you were little as well.

Honey Nut Chex

Honey Nut Chex is amazing. This is one of those cereals that when I was little would dread when it went on sale because my mother would buy it. But last week I decided to skip on the Lucky Charms and Fruity Pebbles for a few weeks and got this and some Fiber One. So far both are good and actually make me feel better. That’s the thing about honking up your body for years with “bad” food. When you try something new the results are immediate.

"New" Fruity Pebbles

Fruity Pebbles has a brand new flavor. Well, there is no real flavor. Its the color. They made it brighter which makes it look prettier. Thankfully they haven't messed around with the taste. I was talking to some coworkers that are in their mid 20's and had to explain to them that certain cereals, though they have the same name, taste very different. Most noticeable if you grew up eating cereal almost every morning are Trix (completely different taste and not for the better) and Kix (which used to taste like armpit but it is now sweet). I don't know what I'd do if they ever changed the taste of Fruity Pebbles. Probably riot. Yeah. I'm pretty sure I'd riot. I know it may not seem like a big deal to many but to me this is the best cereal ever made and messing with anything but its color is ridiculous. 

Pebbles!!!

Marshmallow Pebbles exist. Its weird. I have a feeling that they did at some other point in time and I just forgot about them.  Maybe it was Marshmallow Rice Krispies which were around when I was little and made terrible treats out of. These taste good but are hallow if that makes any sense. They aren’t as filling as Fruity Pebbles (which I have two boxes of waiting for me in the kitchen!). If you like cereal like I do and you like sugar the way I like sugar you will love this.

Eating Healthy An' Stuff

In an attempt to eat healthier I have started to get away from the sugary, sweet, amazing cereal I have eaten my entire life like Trix, Cap’N Crunch, Lucky Charms, and Fruity Pebbles and have started eating this healthy stuff. It actually not as bad as I thought it would be. This one I got from Trader Joe’s and is less than $3. You wouldn’t believe how expensive eating cereal can be! For the stuff I usually get its about $4.29 with milk being close to that price. That’s nuts and a half. Now I am eating healthier and saving money. Go me.
