Their high sugar content may not win them any prizes for health but that hasn't stopped Crunchy Nut corn flakes being voted Britain's favourite cereal.
The breakfast staple – which adds honey, molasses and peanuts to regular corn flakes – was created at the Kellogg's factory in Trafford Park, Manchester, in 1980.
They were an immediate hit with consumers, with sales in the first three months three times higher than expected.
Forty-four years on they have topped a poll of our best-loved cereals, with 35 per cent of 2,000 shoppers placing them first when they were asked to list their breakfast time favourites.
In second place on 28 per cent came the original Corn Flakes, invented in the late 1800s in the US by William Kellogg.
