Reese's Peanutbutter Puffs. US.

Bowl of unseasoned pebbles (im br*t*sh)

- confused me at first because we have a cereal called (fruity) pebbles and I was wondering who was seasoning them!

- Not surprised to hear Brits like to eat rocks.
  
  Must be about as tasty as everything else you eat over there.

  I'm actually an American. My favorite breakfast is corn syrup.

I am in the US. Cinnamon Toast Crunch is my absolute favorite followed by Cap'n Crunch Peanut Butter Crunch. I haven't has either in years and I'm not even sure they still make PB Crunch.

11
- I visited once and tried cinnamon toast crunch. It's damn good cereal. Probably a good thing I can't get it here (Australia, and I technically can, it's just ridiculously overpriced at import shops) since it's definitely bad for me.

Shredded Wheat - UK

US, Honey Bunches of Oats, eaten dry like a bag of chips.

None of them. They are all highly processed garbage

- Lol partner and I were debating on what is considered "normal" for breakfast cereal (or other breakfast foods)

Post Grape Nuts: USA

US - cheerios with a sliced banana, and cinnamon toast crunch

8
- @NineMileTower @SendMePhotos I learned of the fairly hard to find apple cinnamon variety of Cheerios. Total game changer

  Unless by cereal, OP means type of grass grain. Then my answer is Oats.

  Barley crew checking in, wheat and rye are 2 and 3. They make the best beers.

Golden Grahams, United States

Porridge. And yes, I do live in Scotland. I have just put some oats in a pot to soak overnight. I will be eating it with milk, and with honey made by bees I knew personally. Yum.

8
- Bees you knew personally? Amateur. I only eat honey from bees I've known biblically.

- Why not cook it on a stove, like someone who doesn't live in the stone age? You can add apples, cinnamon, salt, brown sugar, and some banana. It will taste pretty good.
  
  Many people forget that you can add salt for better taste. If you're not watching your weight, add some peanut butter while it's cooling in your bowl. Or add some chocolate chips. Yes, I eat a lot of oatmeal. Rolled oats or steel cut.

  I did cook it on the stove. Soaking the oats overnight beforehand makes it more unctuous imo. And of course I added a bit of salt, that goes without saying.

I’m one of those weirdos that you hear about but never see: Grape Nuts.

7
- There is a brand of crackers called Finncrisp which to me taste like savory grape nuts. Delicous!

  The caraway ones are the best.

- Grape Nuts are so good

- Grape nuts and yogurt is my jam.

Kellog's Crunchy Nut Cornflakes, Scotland. Not remotely a good breakfast, but a fucking amazing Cereal

Mueslix. A cereal adopted from other countries that I can now get in the US. Oats, nuts, raisins and dates. Super yummy.

And when I get the craving — Lucky Charms.

7
- I had lucky charms for lunch Wednesday because one of my schools was about to throw them away. Can't remember the last time i had them. Magically delicious!

I'm from Australia, but now live in England.

Cereal? I've not really eaten it since I was a kid. But I always preferred something plain - without sugar or such. Weet(a)bix, porridge, or - if I had no other choice - Special K.

I've always hated sugary stuff before noon. Don't ask me why. Meanwhile, my friends would pile tablespoons of sugar on their sugary super-sugar sugar puffs.

These days, I have a single slice of toast with butter. With a cup of tea (milk, no sugar). Perfection.

France - Trésor by Kellogg's

Weet-bix. Australia

- Weet-bix - Aotearoa New Zealand.

Granola with raisins, dried cranberries, dates, walnuts, and almonds with greek yoghurt instead of milk. United States of America.

France, I don't really eat cereals from breakfast anymore, I'm more of a bread person. But as a kid, I used to sometimes eat Chocapik and Crunch. Both of them are owned by Nestle if I'm not mistaken, and I now boycott them. Tho I did find some off brand copy of Chocapik and tried it out a few months ago, it tasted just like the original.

6
I almost never eat cereal anymore, but when I did, it was mostly Mini Wheats (brown sugar to be more specific). Honey Comb is also a fantastic cereal. I’m Canadian.

I don’t typically eat breakfast, but as for alternatives, I just stick to a basic 3 fried eggs and toast. Sometimes I add in some home fries… Other times I’ll toss in a banana on the side as well.

6
- Also Canadian, also brown sugar mini wheats

Another Scot here and I know it's not a cereal, but porridge.

When I'm having a bad day, the pouches you put some milk in and then microwave for two minutes are a really quick and (presumably) healthy breakfast that tastes good enough.

Guldkorn - Denmark

5
I don’t really eat it anymore, but Alpha-bits was the best cereal in Canada.

5
- pretty sure alpha bits was rebadged cat food

Canada - a tossup between cinnamon toast crunch and whatever granola I can get my hands on.

Corn flakes with a honey spoon, Portugal

- what's a honey spoon?

  It's where cutlery couples go after they get married.

I'm from Morocco amd I haven't eaten cereal in decades.

I just eat the cake my grandmother makes, it always tastes really good. Sometimes with a nice milk coffee that I brew myself (infused with chocolate, of course). This is the best feeling I ever have during the day.

- Breakfast cake? Sign me up!

  It is indeed delicious once you try it.

- What kind of cake?

  The one made using those donut-like pans.

I live in Canada but was born in Mexico. My favourite cereal growing up was (and still is) chocokrispis which is basically just chocolate rice krispies but made with mexican chocolate. Also fucking love count chocula but that is a rare find nowadays, though I did find a chocolate lucky charms not too long ago which was delightful.

US. rolled oats usually with milk, raisins or fresh fruit and some nuts. Brown sugar, honey or maple syrup if I’m feeling it.

The lazy alternative to rolled oats is plain Cabot full fat Greek yogurt. Love that stuff.

3
I haven't eaten cereal since I was like 12 or 13? I started to prefer spicy salty stuff in the morning pretty young. Give me hashbrowns drowning in hot sauce instead.

3
rolled oats, dry. australia

Sugar Puffs. They can call it Honey Monster all they want, but it'll always be Sugar Puffs.

- So this is the source of inspiration for those Team Fortress 2 SFM shorts.

  SFM shorts?

As a kid it would be Lucky Charms, but now I'm old it's Shreddies to keep me shitting.

US-Waffle Crisp followed by Golden Crisp.

3
- What? No Cookie Crisp?!?

  😂 That was always a weird one for me. Wanted to like it but MY GOD it got soggy fast.
  
  2
Canada, but I don't really like or eat any cereal. I can't get past more than few nibbles because of how sweet it all is.

3
US, not sure what it’s called because I very rarely eat cereal. Clusters was good but they quit making it so on the rare occasion that I’m eating cereal, I go for something that reminds me of Clusters.

2
Grape Nuts Flakes when I can find it. Hard to find for some reason. :( US.

2
Canada- my standard breakfast is oatmeal with homo milk and 2 spoonfuls of maple syrup or brown sugar, depending on the season. I try to get the maple syrup from the Amish/Menno dudes out in the country.

Breakfast cereal is a scam invented by a psychotic incel, but oatmeal is cheap and a good source of fibre.

2
From germany, müsli Oats with nuts and fresh fruit, with milk or yoghurt in it Wouldn't eat cereal for breakfast, because it's the same as eating candy

2
Just basic oats, overnight oats or porridge with various fruits and nuts

2
nesquick? (i think it was spelled like that)

edit: im Estonia

2
Steel cut oats with vanilla and chia seeds and cinnamon and brown sugar, just a tad, mm mm.

1
I'll eat cereal when we get it for the kids but prefer granola, over Greek yogurt. Otherwise I go for overnight oats.

Razor blade flakes

Um cereal is for kids is it not?

Coffee and croissant/baguette

-3
- No. A lot of cereal is targeted at children as it's an easy breakfast for parents to get them.
  
  If you avoid the chocolate / sugar encrusted ones they can be a fairly nutritious and quick breakfast.
  
  Croissants are high carbs mixed with fat and bread is just carbs. Both are super unhealthy and massively lacking nutrition by most standards.
