Any fans of the travesty that is now sugar puffs (or honey monster puffs as they are now ), that is if you can find them as some of the majors have delisted them, then I encourage you to try the newly available (UK made I mean non imports) kellogs smacks.
All the joy of what a sugar puff once was. Morrisons and an other that I forget stock them.

No there not...they just changed names and reduced the sugar to miniscule levels
I think they sold the brand and were renamed "Honey Monster Wheat Puffs" difficult to find but I know Morrisons do them online. Sugar reduction is no more than other cereals really.Sheepshanks said:
Do they make your wee smell of suger puffs?
Nah, that was 'Puffed Wheat'. Can still be bought in Sainsbury's as an own brand. It's packaged in Germany. It's cheap about 65p a box. And it's f awful.Give me 'Sugar Puffs' any day, but sadly not available.
I had my first bowl full of them in the early 50s. For those that don't know, the packet had a 'train' featured on the front.
Sugar 'Puffs' referring to the smoke emitting from the train chimney.
Christ knows how many bowlfuls I must have eaten as a kid, covered in full fat milk and then covered in more 'sugar'.
Then I and my pals would walk to school each day scoffing more of our fave cereal, given to us by our mums, before going into the sweet shop outside school for more 'sugar' fixes.
Odd. Nobody was fat. Our teeth suffered. End of.

I had a personalised bowl with the honey monster's face at the bottom and my name - when I was at uni' there was one of those offers where you saved box tops and sent them in for whatever the gift of the time was...my housemates collected them and ordered the bowl - I obviously ate too many of them
