The cereal aisle in any store is overwhelming to me, do you feel the same way? There are so many varieties to choose from, it’s hard to decide what to buy, especially if you’re looking to try something new. My kids are easy to shop for when it comes to cereal, because they just won’t give up their favorites, no matter how hard I try to convince them to try a new kind. As for my husband and I, we like to rotate different ones every couple of months or so.
Many people I know very rarely steer away from their favorite cereal(s). Most are brand loyal and will only try different ones if they’re from the same brand.
If you’re a fan of cereal, do you like to try different ones, or have you been buying your same favorite(s) for as long as you can remember?
