Just wondering how different countries enjoy their cereal (or other breakfast favorites)

11 points

None of them. They are all highly processed garbage

True, but there’s always delicious, hot whole-grain cereal. A little milk and sweetener (or subs), with maybe some raisins or dried fruit while cooking, and Bob’s your uncle.

Steel-cut oats are my fave. Lots of fibre, good nutrients, it’s nice & calming, and only takes about 10min to cook.

No. A lot of cereal is targeted at children as it’s an easy breakfast for parents to get them.

If you avoid the chocolate / sugar encrusted ones they can be a fairly nutritious and quick breakfast.

Croissants are high carbs mixed with fat and bread is just carbs. Both are super unhealthy and massively lacking nutrition by most standards.

I haven’t eaten cereal since I was like 12 or 13? I started to prefer spicy salty stuff in the morning pretty young. Give me hashbrowns drowning in hot sauce instead.

Canada- my standard breakfast is oatmeal with homo milk and 2 spoonfuls of maple syrup or brown sugar, depending on the season. I try to get the maple syrup from the Amish/Menno dudes out in the country.

Breakfast cereal is a scam invented by a psychotic incel, but oatmeal is cheap and a good source of fibre.
