Mixing Cereals Together
 
I know there's a cereal thread, but this topic wasn't explored very well in that one, so I thought I'd open up discussion. So which cereals do y'all like to mix together into new combinations and maybe even more importantly, why? I'll start off. My favourite combination is Multi-Grain Cheerios mixed in even parts with Life cereal. I think I discovered it once when I only had enough in each box for half a bowl. Then it hit me. If I mixed the two boxes together, I'd have a whole bowl.

Now I think the reason this flavour's so compelling is because the Cheerios take the sometimes too sweet edge off of the Life. The near chewiness of the Life is also tempered by the long lasting crunch of the Cheerios.

Please discuss your favourites.

In my house, most of the time all that is ever left in a box of cereal is half a bowl. So normally I just throw whatever we have together and eat it up without second though. But your combination sounds pretty good, I might have to try that sometime.

Honey Nut Clusters with Lucky Charms

or

Golden Grahams with Fruit Loops

It's fun even to just imagine the combinations, let alone try them!

I do this all of the time....Anything with cocoa puffs is good....frosted mini wheats and corn flakes is also a favorite...but eat fast before both get too soggy

I like to mix Cocoa Krispies with Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I do that almost every morning.

I like to dilute sugary cereals (such as Lucky Charms) with plain Cheerios; it reduces the sugar shock.

My wife and son would live on ceral if given the choice... they mix everything and anything together... The lastest I saw was Vector and Shreddies...

inharmony 03-08-2005 07:10 AM

We mix anything and everything!

My Grandfather every morning for years had a bowl of Captain Crunch, Raisin Bran and Quaker Harvest Crunch all mixed together. I tried it once. Wasn't horrible but not something I'd eat on a regular basis.

Cocoa Pebbles and Fruity Pebbles

paddyjoe 03-28-2005 06:25 PM

My favorite is mixing apple cinnamon Cheerios with Grapenuts. Gotta top with some fruit as well.

Mmmmm....blueberries!!!

aberkok 03-28-2005 08:23 PM

I don't consider topping cereals with fruit to violate the purity of this thread idea. In fact, come to think of it, some fruit would really help take the edge off of some of these potentially too sugary combinations.

Good call. Perhaps we should extend the scope of this thread to "cereal recipes."

Here's a healthy one: Special K and Crispix. The combo of textures is really nice.

Has anyone seen this:

?

I'm dying to visit one if I'm ever nearby.

Flunked - there's a Cereality at the student union of my university - Apparently the original location - I absolutely love the place, although i tend to stick more with the yogurt parfaits - still with fresh fruit - than the cereal since it's less messy. Ours is always busy, no matter the time of day :)

I love Product 19 with Life cereal or another lightly sweet grain cereal. I'd live on Product 19 if I could. It is the most delicious thing in the world. On top of that:
Very low in saturated fat
Very high in iron
Very high in niacin
Very high in pantothenic acid
Very high in riboflavin
Very high in thiamin
High in vitamin A
Very high in vitamin B6
Very high in vitamin B12
Very high in vitamin C
Very high in vitamin E
Very high in zinc

And it's kosher (not that it matters to me in particular, it's just good to know)!

very cool! I was wondering what kind of business they do. Gives me hope that it'll catch on in more cities. :)

One of the shows on the Food Network, I think it was Roker on the Road, did a segment on this company. Looked really cool - great idea for a fast food place. I'd want one in my area

Maybe I'm a purist...but I like my cereal un-mixed. I haven't done it in years though, perhaps it's time to open up again.

yeah baby....take a walk on the wild side.......... :lol:

boom29 04-03-2005 11:48 AM

My favorite mix, and probably the only mix that I do is Rice Crispies and Corn Pops.

Rofl! I'll have to get some cereals that would be decent to mix...right now I have Cocoa Krispies and Shredded Wheat....doesn't sound too tempting.

I can swear that I mixed Frankenberry with Boo Berry one time but it may have just been some sort of hallucination.

RickB 04-12-2005 09:02 PM

Lately, I've been mixing Total with the new Vanilla Frosted Mini Wheats. Very nice.

Supple Cow 04-12-2005 09:49 PM

Reese's Pieces cereal and Kix, Apple Jax and Fruit Loops (they kind of taste the same though)... I've thought of other good combinations before, but I feel better about mixing the same shapes/sizes. (Yeah, I'm weird.)

No surrender 04-15-2005 02:22 PM

Willtravel said it above and I totally agree - Product 19 - but I do mix it - with just about anything - 19 stays crunchy and is healthy - so mix in a little, or a lot, of your favorites and it's a really good breakfast - or any meal really. Gotta have cold, cold milk with it though.

It's also entirely possible that such a combination *caused* hallucinations. :)
