*** Cyclone Fanatic Cereal Tournament: Sweet Sixteen ***

Apparently Raisin Bran can't be trademarked as it is too generic and simply describes the ingredients.

Not sure I have ever eaten Post Raisin Bran.

I process my junk a couple times a day but that doesn’t mean I need it to be sugary

Hate to break this to you as well, but even the ones that don’t appear to be sugary are still sugary.

Honestly, the Oops! Just Berries Cap'n Crunch should have been on here. It's the ******* best. ONLY the berries. Fuuuuuuuuck yes

I’ll take “sentences i didn’t expect to read today on CF” for $500, Alex.

I take it you don't eat corn flakes. If you do, the Kellogg's brothers might have been wrong...

Where my Fruit Pebbles lovers? Let’s start a rally

Get too soggy too quickly. No thank you

 

[Cyinthenorth]

I love Captain Crunch but it leaves my mouth feeling absolutely ripped up the rest of the day, and really thirsty afterwards.

It is correct several companies have a version of Raisin Bran (Kellogg's & Post the most common). I listed it under Post, which has the most generic version "Raisin' Bran" - Kellogg's is "Two Scoops Raisin' Bran."

Apparently I have been doing cereal wrong all my life. There seems to be a lot of complaining about cereal getting soggy or not having enough crunch. I can't eat most cereals unless they've soaked (not in the BYU way) a few minutes. I don't want to feel like I could chip a tooth while trying to wake up.
I judge a cereal on how the milk tastes at the end. If it didn't absorb enough, or have enough flavor to change the milk, that's inedible. If it's got some funky overly artificial taste that's a no go too.

For me, there's a "sweet spot," so to speak, between the initial crunch/firmness and the soggy.

Some cereal varieties have a longer time frame for it.

How the HELL are there 9 people already who think RAISIN Bran is better than Frosted Flakes?!?!?

 

[pourcyne]

If my choice is masturbation or cornfuckingflakes

Shut the door....

It's not an either-or. After all why do you think they have a big **** on the package? His name is Cornelius, BTW.

This is where Frosted Mini Wheats puts all other cereals to shame. The bales soak up a good bit of milk yet leave behind a delicious drink when they are all gone. IMO

Don’t add any milk then.

 

[Cyinthenorth]

Don’t add any milk then.

That seems problematic

 

[FouchodeHond]

Same with Corn Flakes over Fruit Loops

Corn Flakes? **** was served as punishment

Corn flakes are more than a breakfast cereal. They are also are a topping for a particularly savory cheesy potato hash brown casserole.

It was massively underseeded as a 10 seed, and running into the behemoth that is lucky charms made this an early elimination. Personally think it should have been a 1-2 seed.

110% agree.
