Re: The History of Breakfast Cereal in America
I ate almost all those cereals at one time or another when I was a kid, except for the chocolate flavored ones because I don't like chocolate. My favorite cereal was actually just plain old Cheerios or the honey and nut flavored one. I hated raisin bran for the fact they never put enough raisins in and the wheat flakes would always get too soggy. I didn't really like the hard, crunchy cereals like Captain Crunch cause it would tear up the roof of my mouth, plus too sugary. Boo Berry was definitely the best out of the monster cereals. Marshmallow cereals were awesome too as a kid, although too sugary now as an adult. Fruity pebbles was always good too, actually back in the 80's the type of toy or surprise it came with in the box was more important than the cereal half the time!
I stopped eating cereal for the most part after I finished High School, I'd eat it here and there depending on the circumstances. I've since learned that most cereals are not good for you and a waste of money so another reason not to buy them. There are videos where a magnet picks up microscopic iron files, which gives 'Fortified with Iron' another meaning.....

Hey that's pretty cool, I hadn't seen that:Mr S wrote:There are videos where a magnet picks up microscopic iron files, which gives 'Fortified with Iron' another meaning.....
Interestingly, we have about 4 grams of iron in our body, mostly in the blood for oxygen exchange.

The distrust on the iron in the cereal could be unfounded, i would think we can digest it, with hidrocloric acid in digestion turning it immediately into ionic form at least.
1)Too much of one thing defeats the purpose.
2)Everybody is full of it. What's your hypocrisy?

That's in a bad way mind you...it basically means that the "vitamins and Minerals' they fortify the cereals with are pretty much useless, just junk and fillers.

I remember seeing a documentary of how cereal came to be. A few guys were trying to make a loaf of bread, but it came out in flakes. They tried again, and the result was the same. Out of curiosity, they wondered what it taste like (figuring it would taste like bread - you know, what they were trying to make). They ate it by itself. They tried it in water. Then they tried it in milk. They all believed it tasted better in milk.

This would be a good cereal spin off from Frankenberry, it could be called, "The Bride of Frankenberry."
