Howdy! Michael,

Sure, Oatmeal and Farina.

I buy my Cereal at ALDI Grocery.
Chrispy Rice (aka Rice Krispies), Chrispy Oats (aks Cheerios) and Honey Wheat
Puffs.

I have been also crumbling a Rice Cake in it too, but planning to quit buying
those.
I can't find a Popped Rice Cereal anymore at the places I shop.
Crunching up the Rice Cake disc take more time and I already have some
Chrispy Rice in the bowl.

I don't Save the "flavored milk" I go to the kitchen sink and drizzle a bit
of cold water in the bowl and drink it.
I don't want to feed the Sewer Rodents any of the GOOD STUFF.

I may have bought Apple Jacks years ago and tried it.

Aldi Grocery sells Rice Chex's.
We use that and Corn Chex's in a Chex Mix recipe I posted here some time ago.

I posted a recipe using Crispix long ago called "Puppy Chow".
