Why does everyone hate Telma cornflakes?
I think they're crunchier and slightly sweeter than the American kind.

I don't know but I jut bought a B & D (this is a bedatz brand - I was in Meah Sharim) version of Coca Pebble and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. Not bad at all. Guess you could add chocolate to anything to make it taste good. (They what happens with pesach food too.)

I like the Temla cininiminies which are as good as the American kind and no problems with Cholov Akum.

You like Crispy-O's?!

Never had them... don't eat gebrucks. But I did have a Shick's pesach cake that was just loaded with chocolate on top of chocolate and it was yummy.

(Didn't know they were gebruks) You're not missing much, though my son would disagree. He ate them all Pesach (not my first choice of a meal for him) and now he won't eat Cheerios!

My whole year in israel I avoided cereals like the plague. No wonder israelis eat salads and bread for breakfast- their cereals are NASTY!!

I had Honeynut Cheerios this morning. Got ahuge 765g box for 20NIS!

That's very close to what you pay in the States.

Frumious- have you ever had kinamonim?
They are YUMMY.

I stay away from cinnamon. I find it icky.

And I actually did buy cereal in israel- american ones. And spent too much money on them. I'm too used to spending 2 dollars on a box of cereal to want to pay 20 sheks for it. Fruit are healthier anyhow.

My son would also disagree. I just don't like him eating the Crispy-O's more than Cheerios because at least they stuff vitamins into the cheerios.

I didn't like cornflakes in the US. I like Telma's. But then I like Gazpacho.

In sem we had those cornflakes and branflakes every morning. One morning, we opened up the box and there were lovely, live, adorable buggies crawling around on top.
We threw out that box, opened up another one, and ate with relish.

relish, huh?

I liked Telma, it was the only Israeli cereal I could eat.

Can't stand them. Even the color seems artificial.

When I was in Israel I would eat branflakes for dinner... a box of branflakes for dinner.

I love the Telma cereal that has sweet flakes and almonds (forgot what it's called.) Also the Banana Bran Flakes are good too.
