favorite cold cereal?

I'm deciding to become vegan, and in doing so I will have to give up my favorite cereal, Kashi's Heart to Heart, as it contains honey.
What are some of your favorite cereals? Can anyone recommend one that is relatively low in sugar and higher in fiber. I've tried a few high-fiber cereals, but some taste like cardboard.
I do love Soy Essence, from Barbara's Bakery, which is vegan.
Anyway, just looking for a little feedback. Just a place to discuss breakfast, one of my favorite meals. :) Thanks!
Optimum Power was one of my favorite cereals. It's high in fiber, contains whole grains, and and is delicious but I stopped eating it due to its high sugar content. I also enjoy Life cereal and Toasted Oats. I love cold cereals! Peta has a list of vegan cold cereal options FYI.
Wow, great. Thanks for the input. I will check out that list of cereals.
Sandhya, that's so funny, I just got back from the health food store, and after scanning the labels of many cereals, I ended up buying Purely O's. haha. I'm excited to try it tomorrow morning.
Has anyone tried Crispy Wheats from Barbara's Bakery?
I enjoyed the Purely O's. Seemed like a mix between Cheerios and Rice Crispies. Haha, haven't had those in years.
I might try something with a little more flavor next time. I have tried the Cinnamon Puffins, and love them. So easy to snack on. I'm kind of obsessed with peanut butter though, so I need to try the Peanut Butter flavored ones.
Thanks for all the tips! I always enjoy discussing breakfast!
Stride4unity, who makes Toasted Oats?
Valu Time makes the Toasted Oats I buy. It's $1.29 for a 14 cups of cereal. The box is large and I get my money's worth!
Let's see ... Health Valley's Raisin Cinnamon Granola is not only delicious, but nutritious and notably low fat/high in fiber. They offer a vast variety of cereals, hot and cold, several of which are vegan. Nature's Path, also, has many good cereals to offer ranging from cute animal themed ones to heavy-duty organic whole grain, flax seed, and even cannabis based cereals. There are lots of hidden vegan goodies out there; check the labels and see what you find.
I like "Nature's Path". They are organic and whole grain and come in a wide variety. I'm sure they are not all vegan, though some probably contain honey. I'm not vegan so I don't read the ingredients on cereal boxes. I do on some things but not cereal.
thanks, everyone, for all the great suggestions. looking forward to trying a bunch and finding a new favorite cereal.
