Cheerios?

I just finished a bowl of Cheerios, and let me tell you, it was great.  But there's a catch.  These Cheerios were Honey Nut.  I've had Cheerios without the Honey Nut -- not so great.  Kind of sad.  More like a bowl of Tearios.  

I initially wondered how we could shift to calling the Honey Nut variety just Cheerios, with the cheer implying that it was the good stuff, but that was my youth talking.  Now we have Cheerios in Regular, Honey Nut, Berry Burst, Yogurt Burst, MultiGrain, Cheerios Crunch, Fruity, Frosted and Apple Cinnamon.  That's a lot of bowls of whole grain goodness.  It is now my whimsical quest to try all of the cereals in the Cheerios family.  

This has also got me thinking about Grape-Nuts.  Going to have to let those thoughts waste a few hours.
