UK breakfast cereals from the 80s and 90s you can no longer get

Breakfast is often touted as the most important meal of the day.

A bowl of delicious cereal soaked in ice-cold milk is a popular choice for those dashing off to school or work, and it's usually a hit with children. Those 90s bowls of sugary delight were the real rocket fuel you needed to get you through a day at school.

However, some iconic cereals from the 80s and 90s are no longer available to today's youngsters - many have been taken off the shelves as brands aim to be more health-conscious, reports Yorkshire Live.

Let's take a trip down memory lane and look at some of the cereals that people remember most fondly.

Ricicles

This sweet Kellogg's cereal was a big hit with children, along with its chocolate version, Choco Ricicles, reports the Express.

The cereal was similar to Rice Krispies but had a frosted sugar coating. However, in 2017, due to its high sugar content, it was discontinued, much to the disappointment of many.

Sugar Puffs

The original Sugar Puffs were launched in 1957 and were a honey-flavoured, sugar-coated cereal.

But there was a significant change in 2014 when it changed its name to Honey Monster Puffs, and the original recipe was also altered to contain less sugar, more honey - and sadly, according to many fans, less flavour.

Start

Kellogg's Start was introduced in the 80s and marketed as enhancing performance in sports, making it a favourite among adults.

However, despite petitions to bring it back, it was pulled from the shelves in 2018.

Banana Bubbles

This Kellogg's cereal was a hit with its rich banana flavour that turned the milk into a banana milkshake delight.

In 1996, Kellogg's decided to discontinue this much-loved cereal along with Golden Crisp to make way for new products.

Corn Pops

Kellogg's Corn Pops burst onto the scene in 1993, tempting taste buds with the promise "you can't stop a corn popper popping more corn".

Though no longer found on British supermarket shelves, these flakes remain a breakfast favourite in the United States.

Golden Grahams

Nestle's Golden Grahams were irresistibly moreish, despite being delicious for all the wrong reasons.

By 2021, this sweet and salty cereal had vanished from our breakfast tables due to its unhealthy recipe.

Force Flakes

Force Flakes had a long history, originating in the US in 1901 and produced in the UK since 1954.

Despite being the first successful commercial wheat flake, they met their end in 2013 when production finally ceased.
