As a kid, Lucky Charms was my absolute favorite. I loved the bits and the marshmallows equally. There was something squidgy about the marshmallow shapes – I loved the way the squeaked when I ate them.
There was something fun and magical about all the shapes and colors and I loved the way it colored the milk in my bowl. I always finished eating them by drinking the sweetened milk from my bowl. I haven’t eaten them since I became a vegetarian, but I still think of them fondly.
I loved the commercials too. Something about finding the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow and being “magically delicious!”

I loved Lucky Charms when it came on the market. I’d get in trouble by eating all the charms and leaving only cereal in the box.
I have to say that Lucky Charms was always my favorite and is my cereal of choice for St. Patrick’s Day. I usually have a bowl with a nice, fat, green bagel. Nineteen days – can’t wait!

So many great cereals. My favorite at the moment is Honey Nut Chex, but that changes often. Thank you for the fun give-away.
