    You’re bleeding because you don’t floss.

    I kind of like the mini-wheats. Though I don’t eat cold cereal except VERY rarely. My typical breakfast is very small: Couple or three heaping tablespoons of plain yogurt mixed with a heaping tablespoon of Kretschmer® toated wheat germ. And a handful of pills. And a cup of hot green tea.

    You’re supposed to put milk on it, then wait, it won’t be scratchy, dummy. It was my favorite when I was a kit…

    I don’t care for the big plain pillows of shredded wheat, which I had to eat as a kid, but frosted mini wheats are palatable

    When I was a little kid, I would eat Grape Nuts® because my grandfather did. Nowadays, I can’t stand the taste of milk so the only time I have cereal is when I grab a handful of Cheerios® and give half to my dog.

    I love shredded wheat, the big biscuits. Favorites from my childhood. Remember when they had stuff you could put together and make a circus?

    I woke up at 5 and was hungry so had shredded wheat with blueberries. When I woke again at 9 my sugar was almost 300. Diabetics should avoid it, even the unsugary kind.

    Earl should try delicious granola. It’s loaded with nutritious oats and, possibly, other good grains.

    I have spoon-sized shredded wheat after the coffee that comes after the orange juice and vodka/champagne mix that I drink with my morning joint.

    You want to talk about a breakfast cereal that makes your mouth bleed? Think about Sugar Pops.

    I like my cereals with a little crunch, so I eat them as soon as I put the milk in. My sister leaves hers on the counter long enough that all of it is soggy. Different strokes…

    All cereal ends up as sugar. May as well have one that makes you happy if you’re going to eat it.

    As carefully as I try, it’s impossible to eat a sleeve of shredded wheat without leaving some stray shreds on the counter. Every. Single. Time!

    The only cereal I know of that’s like eating razor blades is Captain Crunch. After I poured milk on it, I’d put if in the refrigerator for several minutes. Even then, it was still a little crunchy.

    Mom said when they were young (1930s), they had for breakfast those old-fashioned wheels of shredded wheat. First they soaked them in hot water to soften them. Sounds gross to me, although mini wheats are yummy (sans hot water).

    Try steel wool pads, Earl. Not only will you get the abrasive effect you want, you’ll never suffer from iron deficiency anemia again.

    The first time I finally went to the hospital and found that I was having heart trouble, the nurses kept coming in and saying, “You haven’t seen a Doctor for a long while” …. finally I ask one how they knew that and the reply was “Your not taking any medication” …….. I’m finally back down to 4 morning & 4 night (from about 16 plus for awhile) ………….. :)

    No cereal here. Never did like cereal or milk. Two eggs, scrambled well in olive oil and fruit, usually an apple does it for me until lunch time. For variety, deviled eggs and fruit.

    When Shredded Wheat was being tested, one reviewer compared it to trying to eat a whisk broom.

    I like Shredded Wheat. I buy the original, large biscuit size.

    I try to buy breakfast cereal with no or very little added sugar. Shredded Wheat qualifies.
