The cereal breakfast is just there becuase of the american capitalist propaganda machine is so strong , I remember reading multiple times that corn flakes were created by kellogs to get libidos of people down, except cereals are high in carb and sugars , which increase obesity unless that is being burnt actively , which most middle class/ working class people cant !

Fine I’ll add to the discourse. Not all cereals are as sugary as people are saying. Cheerios only have a couple grams of sugar per serving, and you’re probably eating two servings or less. Only issue with the comparison is you don’t suspend dog food in a liquid like you do with cereal. And you need that (soy) milk for protein.

Agreed, but as somebody who makes a conscious rule to only buys cereals with <6g of sugar per 30g (a pretty easy-to-clear bar), I have to rule out about 80% of breakfast cereals that my stores stock.

breakfast cereals are just dessert for breakfast, but regular ‘cereals’ like whole grain oats are great and tbh i don’t see many dogs eating cereals

I’ve genuinely jaw-dropped at the amount of sugar in American cereals. Some of them are literally just candy (isn’t there like a Reese’s Puffs cereal or something???).

Any of porridge, bran, fruit wheats, and just actual fruit makes a tasty and human food breakfast.

There’s an Oreo one too, I also remember Cookie Crisp from when I was a kid.

Even as a kid I liked my bran cereals or oatmeal. The sweetest thing I could tolerate was raisin bran.
