When my brother and I were young we looked forward to mom’s trip to the grocery store every two weeks when we could weigh in on what cereal we wanted. Thanks to the commercials and the song “Can’t Get Enough Of That Sugar Crisp” by the cartoon Sugar Bear we were always unanimous as to what we wanted, Sugar Crisp!
Sure there was Cap’n Crunch which ripped up the roof of your mouth, Frosted Flakes (They’re G-R-E-A-T!!) or we’d go coocoo for Cocoa Puffs. But nothing gave us the sugar high of Sugar Crisp!
For some reason our local grocery store didn’t carry Lucky Charms and mom drew the line at Froot Loops (I’m thinking the colour suggested they were sweeter than they really were)
What was your unhealthy over -sugared breakfast cereal when you were a kid?
