Reminds me of when Kelloggs did an ad in the UK asking people share how they eat Corn Flakes on social media.
The top answer was put the Corn Flakes in a bowl and pour cold milk on top of it, big surprise.
I do a yogurt enema, as he often prescribed, then eat the yogurt with cornflakes on top.
I didn't know that how you were supposed to do it. They really should put the preparation instructions on the box.
They didn't use bots to upvote that one video from the internet's edgy gore phase, that includes a woman and eating cereal in a disgusting way? Very unlike the internet.
Why the extra sugar? Is the cereal not sugary enough? Even the "healthy" cereals tend to have too much sugar, plus the milk has a bunch of sugar.
It's so hard finding low sugar cereals. I'm lactose intolerant so I usually get no sugar added oatmilk at least.
That doesnt seem terrible to me, but I also married someone who pours orange juice on their cereal. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Well that's the most 'wtf' thing I've read on here in a few days.
btw you dropped this: \
Do you mean orange juice on oats? Because that apparently works and the two combined are healthy or whatever. Or do you mean full on cinnamon toast crunch, frosted flakes type shit? Frosted flakes doesn't actually sound that bad.
Oj is really not that healthy. It has a ton of calories and is almost pure sugar. As a type 2 I can't have any, and if I can't have it, then no one should, lol. God, please just let me drink oj and eat rasins again.
Mixing it with iced coffee sounds like it might be alright... Only some kind of sociopath would ever pour milk first and then cereal though
Regarding hot or cold milk, it's up to individual preferences. Regarding the order, there is only milk first (unless you like eating a soggy mess of cereal).
Yes, it's supposed to start crunchy and get soggier as you get to the bottom. That is how you get the delicious cereal flavored milk to drink at the end. CEREAL FIRST ALWAYS!!!
August 21st, 2024. Historians will record this date as the start of the great Milk and Cereals civil war.
AND MY AXE SPOON!
Seriously though. Cereal first, cold milk on top. I'll allow the solitary exception of adding cereal to your remaining milk when you only want a little more, or you used the last of the milk.
Honest to god, last week I saw someone take out some instant coffee and a small jar of milk from their backpack in order to get their fix without having to spend the few bucks buying it from a cafe or whatever
Imma fight y'all.
No milk. Use fil (sour milk), yoghurt or something similar. Put cereal on top, no mixing. The cereal touching the "liquid" get soggy while the rest stays crisp giving the best texture heterogeneity. Berries are awesome, frozen a super convenient alternative. If using frozen mix these with dairy before adding cereal.
Your fermented dairy of choice brings a nice crispy and fresh acidity to the meal. And if it (still) have an active bacterial culture it is super good for your gut.
Muesli is best cereal.
Honey only approved sweetener.
Are you from Sweden btw? Filmjölk/Fil I learned today has no English term. I am from the Netherlands and my mom used to get us Viili all the time, that is where my memories connected with you mentioning Fil. We also had Kefir but Viili was my fav, better than yoghurt. It's hard to get here nowadays.
Swede yes. Fil is our national variant of soured milk. Runnier than yoghurt but still creamy, about same fat content as milk.
Thanks for mentioning, I looked Kama up and it is certainly a breakfast unknown here but the recipes I looked up read delicious. Sorta fine grained roasted muesli. Fiber and protein on steroids. Also I learned versions of this is eaten Sweden, Finland, Russia and even Turkey. Also seems much healthier than any 'western' factory cereal as the recipes I have seen only require salt.
I like to eat it.
Honey only? But there's so many good ones!
Jam, agave, or maple syrup should be good with muesli & yoghurt to my taste. Light molasses may work in moderation, and I've heard good things about sorghum syrup.
That is my preferred breakfast. I prepare it the night before in a glass to allow the bottom layer tons of time to soften like you say but then I mix it all just before eating. I tend to use kefir since if I want fil I've gotta make it myself but as you say anything similar gets the job done.
If you don't do it this way, it's ok to be wrong
I've got this beat. I love eating cheez-its with milk, like it's cereal. Absolute best way.
I actually like it when my cereals get soggy. Most "crunchy" things are just annoyingly hard. Anything harder than a potato chip just sucks.
For making weetbix I have boil water and heat some milk in the Microwave. Pour the boiling water over the weetbix then add the warm milk. Add brown sugar and a dash of cream.
Most of the time I'm to lazy to do all that but it's the way my mum made them so I sometimes do it if I feel like a treat. I think the hot water is just a way to save on milk but it melts the weetbix which Ive grown to like.
Hold up, let's put aside culturally-specific weetbix for a sec (🇦🇺🤝🇳🇿), you mix WATER with your milk but then ADD CREAM???
Sounds like a seppo thing to do. Probably gets more than one drink from a Milo tin too.
Am curious though.
It's the dust and small wood chips off the floor of a sawmill glued together into little bricks. Traditionally eaten with milk and honey. Cricketers legendarily eat 7 or 8 (sometimes more) for breakfast every day. If you are going to do something requiring strength, one should always have eaten weetbix for breakfast.
My Milo needs to be eaten with a spoon. The milk is only there for plausible deniability, I may as well be eating it straight out of the tin.
Cereal is (unsurprisingly) supposed to be prepared like "overnight oats" and similar gruels. Pour the cereal in the milk, leave it all out overnight to soak up the juices, wake up to a breakfast revelation.
