Usually off-brand cereal tastes awful, but I love Malto Meal frosted shredded wheat (or frosted mini spooners) because there's a shitton of frosting on them. Aside from this, I eat only name-brand stuff like Fruity Pebbles and Apple Jacks.
Do you guys eat any off-brand cereal?

I dont consider Malt Cereals off brand...since they all taste great
Off brand to me is "Equate" which is almost always awful

Yeah, I love Malt O Meal's Golden Puffs over Golden Crisp or Sugar Smacks.
I also don't mind off brand Raisin Bran or Honey Nut Cheerios.
Usually I stick to Franken and Boo Berry, though.

I don't really eat cereal, but if I do, it's usually either Frosted Mini-Wheats or Frosted Mini-Spooners.

Yes... I haven't seen a huge amount of difference between branded museli and off-brand.

Yoi can get Malt-o-meal 10 for $10 here on occasion, I stock up. Sometimes I eat cereal for dinner and IMO a few of the Malt-o-Meals taste better than the name brand stuff. However, the majority of the time i eat Oh's Cereal because its yet to meet its equal.
When I was evry young they used to have boxes of cereal that were almost completely white and would say "Sugar Frosted Flakes.. No Frills" even at 5 I'd refuse to let my mother buy that for me.

The only cereal I get is Malt-o-Meal, because damn it, it is the SAME DAMN THING as the name brand cereals, but in bigger bags and cost much, much less.

The Malt-O-Meal Cinnamon Toast Crunch Copy is amazing!
I make" Rice crispie" treats with it. Nothing like Butter, Marshmallows and Cinnamon Toast Crunch in a bar!

When it comes to Corn Flakes yes, because a big bag of Corned Flakes is just as good.
Any others no, Frosted Flakes taste like crap compared to Frosties.

I buy allot of off brand cereals. Flavorite Crispy Rice, Healthy Nut(Grape Nuts), Corn Flakes(Guess you can't copyright Corn or Flakes), and I can't remember what they call the Cheerios rip off. Really wish they would make Rice or Corn Chex rip offs.
Yeah, yeah, those aren't awesome cereals, I'm Diabetic.

My main cost cutting move consists of having a closet full of the following.......
Magic Wizard (Lucky Charms Knock Off)
Yukon Gold (Corn Puffs)
Apple Bobbers (Apple Jacks)
Toasty O's (cherrio's)
Honey Floavored Toasty O's (Honey Nut Cherrios)
Frosty Flakes (Frosted Flakes)

I love that bag cereal. So far, the one I get the most is Honey Nut Scooters. Its cheaper than regular honey nut Cheerios, and it still tastes good. They are Banjo approved. ;D

I eat them sometimes but not much.
Fruity Bits will never be Fruity Pebbles.
Fruity Pebbles have their own taste which cannot be duplicated. Dynobytes tried but I could still tell the difference.

When I was a kid we used to get those Fruit Loops knock-offs that just come in the bag.
