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…

    Maybe people just like different things and there is no objectively correct standpoint on how cereal should be eaten.

    I dont think your opinion is wrong, quite the opposite.

    If you think it should be eaten with no milk, you are right!

    If you think it should be eaten with milk, you are right!

    The real problem is people who eat is with yoghurt and berries. They are wrong.

    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.

      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.

    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.

    Eat it how you like it. Don’t judge people on their tastes. Encourage others not to judge.
