    I always liked Alphabets, Cap'N'Crunch and Lucky Charms. BUT, the absolute most important factor in my cereal selection was the toy in the box!! I remember making deals with my mom, like agreeing to eat Shreddies for a week strait if it meant I could get the toy, even when I hated Shreddies. Ah, yes...those were the days ;)

    In the early 1980's the PAC-Man cereal was my favorite along with Frankenberry and Count Chocula.

    I love Life cereal. But it tends to make me choke. So, I'm taking that as a sign. "Give it to Mikey! He'll eat anything!" Remember that?

    Remember opening a box of cereal from the bottom to get the prize out?

    That way, you didn't have to dig through it.

    One sleepy morning, I made the mistake of pouring orange juice on my Captain Crunch.

    I couldn't believe how good it was. :)

    I remember doing that to get the bicycle license plate out of the Honeycomb cereal.

    '

    That was already after they changed the names to the politically correct and more nutritional sounding 'Honey Smacks' and 'Pops'. They used to be called Sugar Smacks and Sugar Pops.

    Whatever happened to the Honeycomb Hideout? Now that was a real hippy hangout. :) Beads, bandanas, bell-bottoms.

    Yeah, I used to love Kaboom(looks like honeycomb with colors), also Smurf Berry Crunch and Pac-man cereal. Boo Berry and Frankenberry were good too.

    The hacker known as Cap'n Crunch, who discovered that a whistle packed in breakfast cereal would let him fool the phone system, later wrote the word-processing program that was bundled with the first IBM PCs.
