UTsigCold Cereal for Supper - Guess I am getting OLD...
Occasionally we have waffles or omelets for dinner, no big deal. When my wife is out at dinner time, I will have cold cereal, with a banana.

slabsides45I've been known to have a bowl of each box in the pantry for dinner (back in the day). Lucky Charms, Captain Crunch (crunchberry, though peanut butter is tasty), Cocoa Pebbles, etc.
Surprisingly I still have all my teeth.

FenrisNo love here for
Apple Jacks?
Those used to be my favorite, even dry. These days, I can't handle all that sugar. Ah, well. They were good.

Pipe SmokerI usually have some cold cereal at lunch and supper: Quaker “Old Fashioned” oatmeal. The average American diet is deficient in fiber, and oats are an excellent source of fiber – both soluble and insoluble. In fact, I eat it not only cold, but dry (uncooked). Tastes best to me that way – nut-like flavor.

snwghstI had an impulse buy of a box of chocolate and peanut butter Cheerios recently
They made a great dinner

patwI have a bowl of cold serial every so often but love my grits. There are so many ways to serve them and things to be served with them.

I like Mini Wheats too, about the only cereal I eat. I like other brands, but stick with Mini Wheats.

hi-power manI can eat my cereal mix anytime.
My standard cereal mix - 1/2 cup frosted cheerios, 1/2 cup wheat chex, 1 cup original cheerios, 1/2 cup 1% milk.
Sometimes with a banana - a bit to the green side.

charlie12Back in 1973 in West Germany I was sometimes late getting to the Mess Hall to get the good cereal for breakfast. You know the Rice Crispy's or Frosted Flakes. So the only thing left was the 40% Brain Flakes and they tasted like cardboard but I was hungry. All these years later I'm still eating them and love them. Been so long they have changed the name and dropped the 40% part.
I'm out so right now I'm going to get a bowl of good ole hot grits

NavyGuyMore often then not, I ate cold cereal at mid-rats before going on the 12 to 8 sift in the Navy. Sat a lot lighter than the other offerings.
Today it's a rarity for me to have cereal other than breakfast, but after this discussion I might put in the rotation. I surely would need to jazz it up with fruits, nuts and the like.

flashguyI had a "waffle supper" at Waffle House last night. Waffle with butter and (sugar-free) syrup, 2 scrambled eggs, 2 sausage patties, some sliced tomatoes (substitute for the grits and hash-browns), 2 slices of toast, and a large milk. Yummmm!

SpinZoneJust had a roast beef and white american cheese omelet for dinner. The wife is out so I am on my own for dinner.
She is going to be pissed when she gets home and find out she missed out.
