Breakfast Cereal

[Rogue]

Do you prefer generic or name brand breakfast cereal? I've found that I prefer the taste of most generics over the name brand stuff. Also, name your favorite cereal and if it's a generic, give the generic name too.

I like Cap'n Crunch, but prefer the Malt-o-Meal generic called Berry Colossal Crunch.

don't really care. ...maybe name brand? Ill eat whatever.

 

[biostud]

I don't eat it very often so I buy whatever I like.

 

[xSauronx]

[tfinch2]

Name Brand

 

[Juno]

name brand, love the honey bunches of oats.

 

[Otaking]

It depends. I'm usually a brand name nazi, but Honey Puffs are pretty good.

im not being funny but fri-ups Pwns all breakfast

 

[habib89]

i prefer the taste of the brand name stuff, but the generic brands are almost as good, and way cheaper (unless you find brand names on sale) so i usually buy generic brands

 

[dandruff]

nothing comes close to Banana Nut Crunch

 

[Legend]

name brand.

I've yet to see a generic that tastes as good a cinnamon toast crunch or cheerios.

 

[AreaCode707]

Definitely generic. Less sugar on it usually, so it tastes a little better.

 

[coomar]

all about the cheerios and mini-wheats

Some processed grains are treated exactly like sugar to your body.

I'd have to check the validity of General Mill's claim, but their cereal is whole grain.

Whatever CostCo sells

i LOVE cereal. I could eat a box each day, and although i am not picky, i can definatly taste a difference in store vs brand name.
The only generic cereal i like is the captn crunch knock off from Kroger!

Generic and some name brands taste the same...for example honey nut cheerios and the generic cheerios at HEB by malt-o something tastes just about the same....but the good stuff with fiber and true whole grain products cost more. I always look for coupons for name brand products and usually turns out cheaper than generic cereals because I rarely see any coupons for generic products.

I agree, Rogue. Save $$$ and I think it tastes better. :thumbsup:

Most "generic" brands are made alongside name brands. Most are exactly the same thing mnus the packaging.

Maybe a lot of it is that way..but there is a pretty big difference amongst many of the generic brands and name brand cereals.

i REALLY wish White Rose would make a generic Honey Bunches of Oats or something!!!

 

[GhettoFob]

name brand

 

[Iron Woode]

I like only 2 cereals:

Generic Raisin Bran (bigger and more of them raisins, and the flakes are better than kellogs or Post's)

Kellogs Mini wheats - brown sugar

Honourable mention: Wheatabix.
