Honey Bunches of Oats, A Go-To Breakfast Cereal

This is an ode to Honey Bunches of Oats. Much like my ode to Erdinger featured earlier.

When I was in grade school I did not fancy breakfast foods like I do now. I wasn’t a fan of gravy, sausages, eggs, or that wonder known as Hollandaise sauce. Instead, a cartoon naval officer, a friendly tiger, and a toucan were breakfast companions. My mother didn’t like buying me these often. In hindsight I do not blame her.

Later on, I discovered Banana Nut Crunch, Great Grains, and that wonder known as Honey Bunches of Oats. Post has a perfect cereal for a morning breakfast or a midnight snack.

She tells her story here and what makes Honey Bunches of Oats excellent. I can remember early commercials with her.

A classic by Post

This is a great cereal to toss raspberries or strawberries in when you have those fresh. Dry or with fruit this is one of the go-to cereals that I have.
