I eat my cereal straight from the box. Dry. Adding milk just makes cereal soggy and flavorless. Everybody wants crunchy cereal, but nobody wants to STOP ADDING THE THING THAT MAKES IT SOGGY!!!
I’ve never understood why people add milk. It’s awful, and it ruins the cereal. Somehow I’M the asshole for adding milk??? Yeah, ok…
I disagree.
It’s the cereal ruining the milk.
I’ve never understood why people add milk
Because it tastes better with milk. Raw cereal is pure sugar most of the time, milk makes it at least bearable. Also many cereals are really dry
Never had Captain Crunch, I see
This is a time sensitive equation. Dry cereal is too crunchy. Cereal which has been sitting in milk a while is too soggy. You’re supposed to eat it immediately after adding milk, when the cereal is partially softened but still mostly crunchy.
And you don’t need to drown it in milk like it’s a soup, the best ratio requires you to stir the cereal a few times to evenly wet it. If the milk comes more than about halfway up the cereal, you’ve overdone it
Disagree on the ratio, if you eat like I do it’s never gonna get soggy and then you also get a nice amount of flavored milk too
I want soggy cereal. What should I do?
…reevaluate your life choices?
It’s the same with Cesar salad. Make it the day before and eat the soggy leaves. Nothing beats a wet crouton
I use yogurt, or if I’m feeling particularly decadent, Vanilla Ice cream.
I pour myself a glass of milk on the side and take a swig for every spoonful of dry cereal I put in my mouth.
Yes that’s the engineering-oriented solution, I don’t really eat cereals anymore but I apply similar methods to other things as well.
you got my upvote.
I add probably about 30-50ml of milk, enough to wet the cereal when I mix it about a bit, and doesn’t get soggy at all. I never got the whole floating cereal thing but I think a lot of people like drinking the flavoured milk after.
Hey you’re right that is unpopular.
Agree. No milk in my cereal either!
I like eating cheez-its with milk, like it’s a cereal.
If this were Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia, I feel like you’d be Charlie. Just kicking the back doors of the van, and yelling “WILD CARD BITCHES!!! YEHAW!!!” before jumping out and shooting guns into the air.
Ohh sh*t! Look at that door, dude. See that door there? The one marked “Pirate”? You think a pirate lives in there?
I agree
Although it’s partly because I’m lactose intolerant
There is, however, something to be said for Coke and Fruity Pebbles.
