I saw that at the store last week. Looks pretty gross to me.

MandieR1980 · 02-04-2005, 12:36 PM

I'm sure it has too much sugar for me to try. I miss Count Chocula this doesn't look much different than that though.

Kay Scarpetta · 02-04-2005, 12:53 PM

Hmmm, I'll have to try it.

I stick with healthy cereals mostly. Honey Bunches of Oats, Special Kay, Shreaded Wheat, etc.

Me too, but I do buy Lucky Charms on occasion. That looks really yummy!

That way my children won't eat only the marshmallows and now will finish the whole bowl. Good idea

Just wait until they don't stop bouncing off the walls for 37 hours. You'll long for the days of unfinished bowls.
