except that grape-nuts come in one of two states:
gravel (try eating this stuff straight and dry, not very good);
bland mostly-flavorless glop (it directly transmutes from gravel to glop 
given time and exposure to fluids, and not consistently either).

and is also generally associated with old-people.


so, fairly common I think is cereals somehow involving chocolate, fruit 
flavors, or sugar-coating.

example: cocoa-puffs, fruity-pebbles, fruit-loops, lucky charms, ...
(nevermind if the lucky-charms "marshmellows" are closer to a mixture of 
chalk and those "sweethearts" candies than to ordinary marshmellows...).


granted, usually if I eat cereal, it is often raisin bran, but usually 
because that is all my parents bought, and I guess with the other 
varieties there is much more temptation to use it as snack food than as 
cereal (sit around, use computer, eat hand-fulls of lucky charms or 
fruit-loops straight from the box, yeah...).

I think this is also why chex-mix is popular as well.


or such...
