I must say that if you heat them up with milk, honey (or brown sugar), and a bit of butter, you've got a great breakfast treat. Cold? Might as well go out and drag your mouth through the gravel.

I'm beating and then banning anyone that likes grape nuts. Except Jeff.

I bought Grapenuts once because I thought it and granola was the same thing.

I had a bowl, it was terrible. Although took me about a year to throw the rest of it away. Not only is it bad, its expensive. And for some reason I get frugal when it comes to food.

Must beall those starving kids in Africa my Mom told me about.

I'm cracking down. I've been too lenient lately. My bannings to post ratio is too low.

You know why? You had that wimpy Neo instead of a Mega City 1 Judge for an avatar. Makes all the difference.

You are all a bunch of pussies. Crunching your way through a bowl of cereal that isn't nearly as laden with sugar as some around here would suggest that it is can be a worthwhile experience, any time of the day.

I stand by the Grape-Nuts, despite there being no grapes or nuts anywhere near its production facility. I just like it.

Judge WAN had "evolved" to Judge NEO, but apparently as you noted, it wasn't very effective. So I "de-evolved" back to Judge WAN.

Boy it feels good. The bannings will now flow like cheap wine.

Grape Nuts are good. So are Grape Nuts Flakes, and Grape Nuts Trail Mix cereal.

Bannings: I'm judging you.
I have never had any sort of grape-related cereal product.

Heck, before this thread, I didn't even know that there were no grapes in
Grape Nuts. Or no nuts, for that matter.

so...what the Cruise does that name mean, anyway?

Grape-Nuts are yucky.

I prefer Cracklin' Oat Bran. :yum:

From the Post / Kraft website....

....Made of wheat and malted barley, Grape-Nuts was so named because it's inventor, Charles Wiliam Post, said that grape sugar was formed during the baking process and described the cereal as having a nutty flavor....."

Bannings: Not as often these days.
Grape-Nuts defy the law of conservation of mass and energy. You can pour a whole gallon of milk into a small bowl and it will almost all disappear in that gravelly quicksand they call Grape-Nuts.

Hopefully by now, Judge Wan ain't paying attention.

I enjoy Grape Nuts. Best cereal ever? Now, that's a stretch. But likely my favorite "healthy" cereal.

Something about chewing a box of rocks is quite satisfying.

And, my 7 year old agrees with me, and is the only other person who enjoys them, I actually think she likes them more than me.
