Top Cereals of 2006

Cereal is not a laughing matter. It is serious business. So for those that don't get much variation, or are stuck eating stillborn chickens for breakfast, here is a handy countdown of the top cereals on the market last year.

Using the following scoring system:
10/10 Taste
5/5 Toys and included goodness/contests
5/5 Complete Lack of Nutritional Value
5/5 Ability to eat without Milk
5/5 Bowls per box
1/1 Price


10. Kellogg's Special K Red Berries Total Score 13/31
Highlights - Dehydrated fruit just like the astronauts eat
Downside - Box is too small, maybe 3 bowls full. Too much nutritional value here. It even smells healthy.

9. Cocoa Krispies Total Score 17/31
Highlights - Chocolate. Super Toys. 7 bowls per box. Fuckin super rice krispies squares.
Downside - Not hardcore enough, too childish.

8. Kellogg's Special K Vanilla Almond Total Score 18/31
Highlights - Nuts Almonds, stays super crispy. Makes great squares. Bigger box than it's fairy Red Berries partner.
Downside - Too much nutritional value. Kind of a girly cereal and box.

7. Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds Total Score 19/31
Highlights - The sheer awesomeness of the taste destroys the healthiness of it.
Downside - Oatmeal is cold cereal's bitter rival. So you are a fence sitter by eating this.

6. Frosted Flakes Total Score 22/31
Highlights - Got on this list because of sweet toys and even sweeter loads of sugar.
Downside - My teeth hurt after a couple bowls.
(note* - a low sugar version was produced but it tastes like plastic)

5. Golden Grahams Total Score 23/31
Highlights - So sweet. Like candy for breakfast wasn't the greatest thing ever.
Downside - You have to eat it in approx 63 seconds after coming into contact with milk or it goes soggy.

4. Post Oreo O's ( found stateside only unfortunately ) Total Score 25/31
Highlights - The creator of this cereal had some serious balls.
Downside - Can't find it in Canada. But you could just crush Oreo cookies and put in milk.

3. Kellogg's Smorz Total Score 27/31
Highlights - Makes good milkshakes - can be eaten anytime, anywhere.
Downside - Gets soggy way to fast - also hard to find in most stores.

2. Nesquik Total Score 30/31
Highlights - Cereal in chocolate milk seriously pwns cereal in regular milk
Downside - Eating without milk is totally pointless

1. Reese's Puffs Total Score 1,000,000/31 ( ridiculous yes, but then you have never tried them )
Highlights - This is what awesomeness tastes like as solid matter sprinkled with sheer delight. A viable cure for cancer and depression.
Downside - You won't find a bowl big enough
