Shredded wheat? No way, that stuff is awesome.
I totally have to find a Mr. T cereal now. It should still be good, right? I mean, how many organic compounds can it have?
Also, while I agree that Count Chocula is terrible, at least we can all come to the consensus that Boo Berry is the ontologically-superior cereal.

shredded wheat - bad
FROSTED shredded wheat - GREAT
Do you have something against the fruit-flavored family of breakfast foods? Fruity Pebbles? Fruit Loops?
And the most glaring omission - Lucky freakin' Charms.

Absolutely, Lucky Charms rock . . .
And when I was a kid there was this cereal with these big fake red "berries" . . . maybe it was Cap'n Crunch with Berries?
My list now would include:
Oatmeal Squares
Anything with fruit and nuts

Hey - I love health pellets with some fresh fruit. They taste even better if you cook them up like oatmeal.
My favorite growing up was Honey Combs, but we only got to eat them at my Grandma's.
My parent's did not buy sugar coated cereal until the advent of Golden Grahams. I think because my mother liked to snack on them dry.
We were a Rice Krispie, Corn Flake, Wheaties and Puffed Rice family until then.

If this was like Highlander and there could be only one, then that one would be Honey Nut Cheerios. With banana slices included. Best cereal ever.
Osler, there doesn't seem to be much sense to rating Alpha-bits #1 and Mr. T cereal close to last, when Mr. T cereal was basically just Alpha-bits with only the letter "T."
Have you *seen* fiber one?
As if the word "fiber" wasn't enough to conjure up the ultimate end, "Best Life" Corp. decided to illustrate.

Ha ha, the comments above are great. And Lucky Charms are awesome, ftr. Oooh and frosted mini wheats rock too!
I like Captain Crunch. But I always feel kind of sick after I eat it. But then, I really have not had it since like 1982. My mother would not buy cereal when I was growing up. She made me have Carnation Instant Breakfast. Gross, but I ate it because she told me that the Bionic Woman had it every day.
I grew up believing that, and now have passed my neurosis onto a new generation, every time I tell Spencer that his carrots are "magic carrots" that were grown especially for him, so that he could become a great swimmer.
How sad is that? I wish my kid had some with some kind of a manual.
We do not buy cereal for Spencer. He eats peanut butter toast for Breakfast.

Oops, you forgot America's least favorite cereal, Frosted Shreddy Wheats! They're a knock off brand by Malt-o-Meal that we have sitting around the house. They taste like what cardboard probably tastes like when it's shredded, glued together, and soaked in milk.
Yeah, not very good.
Oh yeah, and I eat a mixture of Alpha-Bits, Honey Nut Cheerios, and Apple Cinnamon Cheerios whenever I can. The milk tastes awful afterward (cinnamon, honey, nuts, apples, and letters all mixed together), but it's good while it lasts.

I just had the best idea ever for a cereal!
Today, my friends and I tasted the glazed carrots that our school server for the first time ever, and they were awful. At first, they tasted sorta like glazed donuts, but as soon as you actually bit into the carrot, it tasted just like what glazed donuts, horse manure, and possibly some extremely acidic herbicide would taste like mixed together.
This inspired me to think up my own cereal idea, Glazed Vegetably-Os! They would be made out of the glazed carrots and would be compressed into rings, which you would then soak in milk (they would be freeze-dried, so they would expand in milk, just like a kind-of-healthy carrot-based Lucky Charms) and eat!
I might market them as "Healthy-Tastic!".

Micah,
Your parents need to make you finish that old box of shredded Wheat. It has magical powers to pass along.

Honey Bunches of Oats, (with almonds). The combination of granola, flakes, and almonds is a flavor explosion. I suggest adding banana slices. I have been known to eat at a box-a-day pace.

"Healthpellets". Now there's a cereal that nobody would buy, even if it was factually correct. I really don't see what's so appealing about grapes and nuts mixed together, either.
