How do you prepare your cereal?

[Dead2009]

It's the age old question that's been asked all over the internet and in real life social circles...do you pour the cereal before or after you pour the milk?

Do people really pour the milk first?

Cereal first, then milk. Not sure why anyone would do it the other order.

Definitely cereal first if you do it the other way around it would float and you would get less in the bowl before it made a mess and overflowed.

I honestly was thinking by the title of the thread this was a more a cereal recipe type question, ala rice crispy squares

There are weirdos out there that actually pour the milk first.

I pour the milk first, then I add little bits of cereal at a time because I hate soggy cereal.

I add just a little splash of milk on top of the cereal. I also hate soggy cereal.

Not an issue if you eat Captain Crunch. It will cut the roof of your mouth hours after putting milk on it.

Cereal in a bowl. Milk in a a glass. Never the two shall meet.

My sister’s brother-in-law was very particular about his milk for cereal. Had to put it in a bowl in the freezer for 20 minutes to get icy cold and that was the only way he cold tolerate milk in cereal.

I remember staying over my great grandmother’s house in the winter when we were little. She was so excited offering us breakfast. She was born in the 1880s northern Sweden and couldn’t speak fluent English well. She’s communicating options for us. We’re used to eating cereal every morning so we picked the corn flakes. Well out comes 2 bowls of hot milk and cornflakes. My sister and I were like what? We absolutely didn’t want to insult grammy but it was a challenge to eat it with a thank you smile. Sometimes you do what ya gotta do.

I eat the cereal dry most of the time. On the few occasions where milk is involved, it is cereal and fruit first and then milk. I don’t like cereal and milk without fruit added.

Cereal first, sugar/fruit next, milk last.

No, no they don't. This has to be some sort of urban legend.

r.e. bold-- Pretty tricky but moo comes to mind for compartments in your stomach that keeps items separate ---

* ... cows only have one stomach but it is split into four distinctly separate compartments ... *

Cereal first and then I drown it in milk - I like lots of milk

 

[Meriweather]

I only eat oatmeal.....so cook it first then add milk

I can’t imagine pouring the milk first.

I have to eat my cereal quickly. I hate it soggy.
