While I still occasionally eat cereal, it's not nearly as much as I used to. Currently I have 2 boxes - Raisin Bran and Honey Nut Granola. There are also 3 boxes of Chex mix, but they are only here for a higher calling....to become Christmas Trash!

Well, I just looked and we had five but I just threw two away because they were almost gone and had been opened for a loooong time. The kids kind of go in spurts where they eat cereal a lot then not at all. We had:
Regular life cereal Cinnamon life Honey Nut Cheerios Rice Krispies (what was left from the breakfast bake I made at thanksgiving) Premier protein high protein flakes with berries

There are probably six kinds of cereal in my cabinet.
Cinnamon Toast Crunch that was DD’s and should be thrown out because it’s super old. Frosted Mini Wheats which is what I usually eat most days. Quaker Instant Oatmeal packets that I eat on the other days. Rice Krispies for making Rice Krispy treats. (Two giant boxes of those.) Wheat Chex for the random days when I’m sick of the other two. Quaker Oat Squares for DH who likes them but never eats them.

We’re not big cereal eaters. We have Cheerios (my uncle eats those), Frosted Mini Wheats (DH eats them dry and the dogs love them), and a small bit of Rice Krispies left over from making RK treats.

I love cereal, but try not to eat it all of the time. I currently have Bob's Redmill Museli. Sometimes I prepare it overnight with yoghurt, sometimes I just have it with a lot of milk.
Dh eats Honey Bunches of Oats every morning. He eats about a cup of cereal with about 1 tablespoon of coffee creamer on it. I don't know how he chokes this down.
Ds doesn't like cereal. It nearly broke my cereal loving heart.

Generally just one or two. Dh and I aren't big cereal eaters. He likes sugary cereals but only eats it maybe once a year, if that because of carbs. I only like a few kinds and am now trying to watch my carbs and only eat good ones. I much on dry Cheerios on my way to work for my cholesterol.
Dd occasionally likes cereal of all kinds, but for the most part sticks to Cheerios and Rice Krispies. Very occasionally she will eat some total crap like Fruit Loops etc.

If you have a slow cooker try making the porridge in that but use milk instead of water, don’t skip the pinch of salt - it really makes a difference to the texture, add some frozen blueberries, and put it on low before you go to bed so it can slow cook overnight. Didn't you watch This Is Us?!?! I'm now too scared to put the slow cooker on overnight! I couldn't face the idea of plain oats, so I bought Carmen's Porridge Sachets with Super Berry and Coconut and Chia Seeds. My idea was to ease my way into eating porridge by trying the flavoured sachets first, before switching to the plain stuff. I just found another packet of cereal - Protein Creamy Oats that I bought for DS to put into his smoothies. Maybe I should try the overnight slow cooker method with them. You should try steel cut oatmeal. It's far better than rolled oats. I only use rolled oats in my chocolate chip cookies. Instant oatmeal in packets (I think that's what you mean by sachets.) is just disgusting. Plain is tolerable, but the flavored ones are horrible.

We hadn’t eaten cereal in a few years, until we discovered Magic Spoon. Now, we have a subscription, and we have 4-6 different flavors at any given time. I usually eat it a couple times a week.
Not exactly cereal, but we also have a subscription to Oats Overnight. We like that neither of these companies use fake sugars, and are high in protein…and they are tasty!

I usually have 2 of my 3 favourites. Right now its raisin bran and shreddies (original non-sugared). My other favourite is cheerios (original non-sugared).
I'm boring when it comes to cereal.
I also have oatmeal in the pantry. I eat it every once in a while in the winter.
