There are actually people in the world who put milk in the bowl before the cereal? Why? I’m genuinely curious at the rationale behind it!
I, OCCASIONALLY, am one of those people. And to me it makes PERFECT sense.
Most cereal, cereal then milk, hands down.
But what if I want a super crunchy bite of something like frosted flakes, or honey bunches, the entire time I’m eating it?
- Pour milk first
- Add one single layer of cereal
- Enjoy crunchy bite of cereal for every bite
- Add a fresh layer of cereal
- Enjoy crunchy bits
- Repeat until milk gone
I was converted to milk first by a kid i was watching. It’s better for keeping your cereal harder for longer. If you’re a fan of mushy cereal then go milk second so everything gets wet. But if you’re a fan of the last bite still being crispy then milk first is the way.
If you didn’t want soggy cereal, why bother with the milk in the first place?
They want more of the protein and fat from the milk as opposed to the sugar and carbs from the cereal.
How does that effect the order they go into the bowl though? They would still end up with the same amount of milk and cereal wouldn’t they?
Most people that put milk first actually warm up the milk in the microwave rather than put it on the stove or something like that. I personally do it because it saves on dishes
As for me, I have another reason. When you run out of cereals, do you put more in another bowl, then transfer the milk in? Obviously not, you just add it on top of the milk, which is the same thing as putting milk first Also, putting hot milk on the cereals sometimes makes them all soggy and I rather have them stay crips
I really don’t see how this debate is so heated over which step to start the cycle of cereals eating lol.
YOU DON’T EAT CEREAL WITH WARM MILK!? That’s genuinely the first time I hear that people eat cereal with cold milk. I tried it once, and it felt soulless.
Makes you put less cereal if you already filled with milk, so you eat less tasty garbage.
You could just measure how much you’re putting in. Like just put a cup of cereal and then as much milk as you want.
Ultimately anyone can eat their cereal however they want, but adding milk first doesn’t actually “make” you do anything lol
if it makes them think they already put more cereal than they atually did, it’s completely fine to do. also you wont have to clean up a cup afterwards.
and whats the difference between putting milk before or after anyways? i dont like cereal so im really curious as to why people care
