Almonds, although, proving you can't take New Jersey out of the boy, I prefer planters cocktail peanuts to every single fancier / more expensive nut I've ever had.

Planters or Bazzini Nuts?

Grape Nuts (haven't had the other)

Calling Kellogs "Corn Pops" cereal "Corn Pops" as presently branded or "Sugar Corn Pops" as they were known when I grew up?

With Millennials love of sugar (the real stuff not anything processed), maybe they'll bring the old name back.

I remember them as just plain "Sugar Pops" until the early 70s or so, and that's still how I think of them.

Wheatena or Maltex?

You have me questioning my memory - but I think we called them Sugar Corn Pops (regardless of the label) in my house.

Wheatena (like with Vitanola's last post, I haven't had the other one you mention).

Eating your cereal from a bowl or form a large mug?

First.

A bowl of hot original oatmeal:

Whole, 2%, 1% milk?

Or

Evaporated milk either Pet or Carnation in can?




For some reason, the latter being the only way can I enjoy a bowl of hot oatmeal with straight sugar.
Although I would gag if I were to take a swallow of this milk by itself.
