Do you like to add fresh fruits or maybe dried fruits to your cold cereal?
I remember as a child my cornflakes were often served with banana slices on them... and I enjoyed it very much this way.
These days I often find in the stores that the cold cereals have included dried fruits such as strawberries or peaches in them.
Do you like to add fruit to your cereal?
What kind of fruit and on what types of cereal?

No, not really. Other than raisins (in Raisin Bran) I'd rather pass on having any kind of fruit, whether it is dried or fresh, in my cereal. For some reason I just don't like it in my cereal.

When I was a child those cereal commercials made me jealous. I mean my mom didn't add fruit to my cereal! (the attitude of a spoiled twerp) So I never did add fruit to my cereal. And like you said, now they have dried fruit in the cereal, so there is that. But I still prefer real, fresh fruit in my cereal. I buy fruit, the issue is that I quit buying cereal.

I tend to buy and eat the cereals that already have freeze dried fruit in them, usually the ones with strawberries in them! I don't really add dried/fresh fruit to my cereal, take this morning for example i had a small bowl of cereal then i ate a banana seperately afterwards when i could eaisly have chopped the banana up and had it with the cereal. I guess i just never thought to do it that way.

I eat oatmeal every morning for breakfast. I like to put apples chunks in it and then add raisins or frozen blueberries, raspberries, blackberry blend...just a handfull so I have a variety of fruit. Makes the breakfast last a while.

sometimes I will add dried fruit but it just depends on what cereal I am eating.

My husband likes cereals and I he often has it. You gave me a good idea to add dry fruits to it. I don't know how will it be to add fresh fruit to it. How did banana slices taste with cereal? What are the other furuits than can be added?
Thanks for your valuable response to my discussion.
