Best cereal ever, followed by Clusters. Now both are unfortunately no longer available. Grrrrrr!

Brought up with Force cereal. Only stopped eating it late 2009 as unable to get anymore. Wish could still get it.

Never mind Star Wars, what about Star Trek? 'It's breakfast, Jim, but not as we know it.'

It's great to see so many fellow Force-lovers here. My 90 year old father was brought up on it and misses it terribly, and so do I! Other wheat flakes are available but they are poor imitations and none has ever had the lightness and flavor of Force. I still use everyday their attractive wheat-ear knives, forks and spoons which we collected piece by piece in the 1970s when you could buy them if you sent off some packet tops. And that is all I have to remember it by. I wonder if the problem started when Weetabix and then the supermarket own brands started doing their own wheat flakes which were cheaper? They are nothing like as good as Force!

Last made by Nestles in England about 2011-2012, now discontinued. Very low sales, but never advertised! The dolls were still on sale in 1997 for about three pounds and two packet tops.

Bring it back now! It's a disgrace that they are taking away memories as well as quality. Shameful!

Force Flakes leave the rest behind. They are utterly delicious and wholesome. They must be brought back if a revolution is not to break out. Dan

Best breakfast cereal ever. Can somebody else please make the wheat flakes? It would be a winner.
