Seriously I am. It has been so hot here that I do not feel like cooking anything. So, I decided I would eat lots of cereal since it is fortified and has lots of vitamins, minerals and tastes great and is ready as soon as you grab a bowl. So, off to the grocery store where I notice that Lucky Charms are now made with whole grain. Grab a box and compare the nutritional info to the "healthy" cereal i have been eating. Well, well, well!!!! Not only does lucky charms contain more of all the vitamins and nutrients, but it has less calories per the same amount of the other stuff and less sugar. What the h__l is going on here??? SO i bought I giant box since my hubby is gone and i really have no need to cook anything. Now I have been eating it for breakfast and lunch for the past 3 days and now I just ate it for dinner. I need help, but those litte marshmallows are SOOOOO good.

I am addicted to eating any kind of sugar cereal! Where I am in NC it's been in the high 90's since the middle of May and we've not had a break since

Marshmallow Mateys are cheaper and taste exactly the same. You know, the stuff that comes in a bag. I love cold ceral too. Sometimes cereal and peanut b___tered toast is a meal. But I have been trying to be good and have only cereals that also have protein. Kashi Go Lean Crunch is a favorite!

Maybe you are having a leprochaun :0) I am 27 years old and never had lucky charms, I just thought about that maybe because I don't like marshmallows.

I bought another box! A big one! It is just so hot here that I can hardly bring myself to eat anything. And, as I mentioned, it does have a lot of good stuff in it. mmmmm tasty!

Oh my God, I actually thought that I was the only one. I have gotten to the point of buying up to 7 boxes of this c___p at a time. You know your headed for trouble when you start hiding the boxes out of shame. I'm a Psych Nurse at a large hospital, so I've questioned myself; hence this internet search. Are they putting crack in this stuff or what? I even had a dream about that freakin leprochaun force feeding me this stuff. My friends think I'm merly kidding, but I'm serious. I have a nutrtional background, and thought that it may have been simple hypoglycemia, but that wasn't that case. I'm eating a box a day, and that leprochaun on the box is ever so slightly starting to freak me out!

there definately is something about cereal that is addicting. While my addiction is not Lucky Charms.....I have gone between cheerios, Smart Start, and granola cereal my entire pregnancy. I am now 30 weeks, and the idea of eating a bowl of cereal makes my mouth water. I guess there is something in cereal that our bodies need and want.
