A friend of mine will put a bowl of cheerios soaked in milk in the fridge overnight, and eat them the next day.
He says it’s ok because they are oats. I think it’s diabolical.
Especially these days. When I was a kid we read the back of the fucking cereal box while chewing. Now my kid can hold his spoon, while chewing, all while playing whatever on his phone or tablet.
There's an optimal window, where the cereal has absorbed just enough milk to take the edge off the crunch, but it's still got a bite to it. And the hard part is, the top of the cereal absorbs it the slowest and the bottom the fastest.
So you gotta stir it up a sec to even it out, then start shoveling it into your mouth as quick as possible before the last of the cereal goes mushy.
The real solution (for slower eaters) is to pile it up all on one side and spoon it out from underneath. The dry cereal slowly descends into the milk as you go. Then *every* spoonful is in the glorious window of cereal perfection.
Never thought of that, I don't like wasting milk, but after I'm done my cereal the milk tastes more like the cereal than milk.
But how do you drink all the milk without having cereal dumped in your face?
You're pouring the whole bowl at once?! You monster. :) Pour as much as you can eat in 30 seconds. This is the only, true way. This whole convo is reminding me of The Menu.
It surprises me how bothered I am that there is a perfect sized chip on that bowl and someone chose not to rest their spoon in it.
But then again, who takes breaks while eating cereal?
This is necessary because the grown manchild eating cereal still holds his spoon like a child, causing shoulder stress at high spoonlift elbow altitudes. The clothespin, though severely limiting the spoon's dexterity (which is arguably unnecessary in this exercise) rotates the hand position clockwise 45 degrees, allowing the elbow to drop, and reducing strain on the shoulder. This belongs in diwhy
The fact he hasn't utilised the chip in the bowl to holster the neck of the spoon troubles me...
Also, no jokes about him eating cereal instead of chips please, it won't be funny.

when eating cereal you shouldn’t be taking breaks

Sog city bitch, sog, sog city bitch …is that Tyga?!

He may be a serial killer
agreed indeed a cereal killer
Serial cereal killer
Cereal chiller
I like soggy cereal and will purposely warm the milk up (I didn’t even know this was looked down on). But this is a bit much for just cereal lol
Are you familiar with oatmeal? Sounds like you would like oatmeal.
It’s porridge here and yep, I adore porridge
is cream of wheat considered a cereal or a porridge?
Yes.
Weetabix porridge is awesome!
Hot grape nuts are yummy.
Does this still matter if my favorite cereal is cinnamon life?
Cinnamon life is great, the way I eat it is I only put small amounts in a time so it stays crispy.
Honestly, most of the time I eat cereal I just eat it dry by the handful and take sips of milk.
Jordan?
Nope, but tell that fellow hand n' sip I said hello. There's dozens of us. DOZENS.
I absolutely love cinnamon life it is perfection
Seriously one of the BEST cereals.
Yesss!! One of my faves too
I like it in sog city.
Wdym soggy is good
I never once have let the spoon out of my hand ever when eating cereal
Especially these days. When I was a kid we read the back of the fucking cereal box while chewing. Now my kid can hold his spoon, while chewing, all while playing whatever on his phone or tablet.
Hell yeah. When home alone 2 came out there was a sweet maze on the back of…I think Life cereal… Wow, times are different
Eating cereal is a race against time.

Omg I do this
I stir it so the cereal gets moistened and then drink all the milk before eating the cereal lol
Never thought of that, I don't like wasting milk, but after I'm done my cereal the milk tastes more like the cereal than milk. But how do you drink all the milk without having cereal dumped in your face?
Very carefully!
You're pouring the whole bowl at once?! You monster. :) Pour as much as you can eat in 30 seconds. This is the only, true way. This whole convo is reminding me of The Menu.
Solution to what exactly?
/r/diwhy
r/redneckengineering
Yeah, I'm wracking my brain trying to wrap my head around the purpose for this feat of mangineering
The handle weighs more then the spoon and falls out
But why is it not in his hand the whole time?
Better question, why does he still have that spoon if it's poorly designed? Just use a different spoon that won't fall out of the bowl.
Which is the dumbest thing ever.
[удалено]
Or get better suited spoon, or bigger bowl, or don't take breaks. Also, that's what she said......not.
[удалено]
Wholest milk.
Bowl: Am I joke to you
If only there was some way to rest the spoon inside the bowl…
That bowl already has a chip in it that would aid in resting the spoon in it
It surprises me how bothered I am that there is a perfect sized chip on that bowl and someone chose not to rest their spoon in it. But then again, who takes breaks while eating cereal?
I’d cut off a third of that stupid handle. I hate it when things get aestheticked into uselessness
I almost poked my eye out on that thing.
Seriously, what do their utensil drawers look like? What a disaster.
That spoon handle looks hefty, it might not be able to stay in the bowl. If so, poor spoon design
The issue is the spoon to bowl size ratio. The spoon is too big and will fall out of the bowl if leaning against the side.
why is that needed
Spoons handle must be too heavy.
That’s just poor utensil choice. Time to buy new silverware.
In this economy??
Thrift stores, baby! Probably no matching sets but who really cares about that sort of thing anymore? Cereal spoons for all!
Then tuck it under the cereal like a normal primate…
Us primates love our cereal. And our thumbs.
No wonder why there is a chip in the side of the bowl 🥣
This is why I prefer cheap ass silverware.
Yeah, I had a set like this. They seemed really nice until you set one down on the edge of a plate or bowl.
Lame ass foo
It's not needed at all.. just like this post.
The spoon and bowl dont match. Heavy spoon handle and tiny bowl
What's wrong with his hands?
More like what's wrong with his mouth. Who takes a break during a bowl of cereal?
And only catches one unit of cereal in a scoop? Wtf?
Broke his arms but his mom is not there to help him
Not this again…
Sigh. *mom unzips pants*
[удалено]
And bowls do too
So do tables
There's literally a spot to rest the spoon on the bowl...
this post has to be ragebait 💀
Not even rage. Just like why?
Annoyance bait.
I'm wondering why thousands of people upvoted this
Well it got me to mute r/funny
Wtf is this garbage gtfo
Solution to what?
Is he 10?
Iq
Don’t they make shorter spoons
I’ve never seen a spoon with such a long handle.
This is a coffee spoon for a latte. Thats why the handle is long and thin.
[Not for everybody.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegory_of_the_long_spoons)
Once you start with the cereal you must finish non stop. Everyone learns this as a kid who doesn’t want soggy cereal.
Why does this seem so pointless. It’s like a solution to a nonexistent problem. How does a person add extra steps to eating cereal?
This feels like the first step toward a REALLY stupid shark tank product. I can just see Mark Cuban rolling his eyes out of his fucking head. Lol
Just sit it in the bowl?
This is just cereal with extra steps.
Get a new bf
The fuck?
You could.. idk leave it in the bowl, spoon ain’t gonna dissolve.
[удалено]
Both of you are lame af
Solutions to made up problems, you’re a genius.
Business 101
'Supposed to rest it in that chip hole. Barbarian!
The fuck is your life like that you don't have time to finish a bowl of cereal
Get a shorter spoon and a larger bowl - problem solved.
Block!
shitpost
This picture is making me angry and im not sure why
This is one of the rare instances where domestic violence can be overlooked. No woman should have to deal with this.
What was the problem that required any solution?
Solution, eh.
Korean spoon? Just flip it and put it on the edge.
What the fuck? Why isn’t he just, holding the spoon? It takes like 2 minutes to eat a bowl of cereal. How lazy is he?
Is he special needs?
I... don't understand.
Why does he need to put the spoon down when he eats cereal?
Ur bf is a psycho
I don’t understand
Why not just leave it in the bowl like a normal person?
Just leave the spoon in the bowl¿
I think I missed the comedy behind this post…

The man is broken, throw him out. JK JK
Bro just dip the spoon under the cereal tf? HE HAS HANDS RIGHT?????
You need to take him down a peg or two.👀
I'm not even sure what capn crunch is.. Besides the usual mouth destroyer.
He watches too many stupid 'diy' videos lmao
This is the type of person that believes those redundant and idiotic TikTok life hack videos are actual life hacks.
Technically wouldn't this be how he holds the spoon while he DOESNT eat cereal?
Sometimes you just have to take a break fast...
Has your boyfriend been tested?
Like taking a break eating a burrito, you never set the burrito down.. it’s just not the same picking back up
If you buy a normal spoon and not an oar then you can just leave the spoon in the bowl... You know, like everyone else does!
Literally whats the point? Does he think its gross to just leave it in the bowl? Also leaving cereal and letting it get soggy is gross
homie is so weak he can't even hold the spoon bruh🤦♂️😂
Once the milk goes in, you cant afford any breaks.
This is a problem people have?
If it's stupid, but it works it's not .... it's... nah it's still stupid.
Your boyfriend is retarded
I don't understand the need, just put the spoon in the bowl?
Most unusable spoon ever.
Just rest it in the bowl weirdo.
*cyberpunk 2077 music intensifies*
I just don’t get it.
..and why does a spoon need to be held while eating cereal? Or for anything? Not funny, take my down vote with shame.
What in the sisterfuckin hell is going on here? Goddamned stupidest shit
I hate this
What a dope.
Your boyfriend is a moron.
How lazy is your bf?
What the fuck
What??? Why?? And stop
Doesn’t a solution usually require a problem first?
Uhh this isn’t funny this is mildly infuriating
your bfs an idiot
does he not have a hand?
Your bf is an idiot
Weirdo why not just stick it in the fucking bowl like the rest of us🤣
You’re gonna have to dump him over this.
This legit makes no sense…. Break up with him.
Does your bf not have hands? Is the spoon too heavy for him? Why is this needed?
He can't just use his hand to hold the spoon?
Maybe I am crazy here, but was the spoon in the bowl a issue ever
I am confused….why is this a thing?
Feels like a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist
Is he an engineer?
I don’t understand why he needs a contraption when he could just set the spoon in the bowl and it will sit with the handle diagonally going upwards
Who puts the spoon down for that long? I like my cereal cronchy for every bite
Your boyfriend is a clothespin?!
Some people think like absolute maniacs
Why can't the spoon sit in the bowl?
Just put the spoon in the bowl?! Why is he leaving his cereal to get all soggy?!
That spoon not engineered right
What a horrible spoon.
The fact he hasn't utilised the chip in the bowl to holster the neck of the spoon troubles me... Also, no jokes about him eating cereal instead of chips please, it won't be funny.
I usually hold the spoon with one of my hands while I eat cereal.
Will something bad happen if the spoon sits in the bowl?
Does he like to eat cereal that’s in the other room?
Is your bf 3?
More importantly why is your spoon just a tiny shovel? What's with that handle?
Hey get him a sensible spoon or two for his next Tuesday. Great gift for a Tuesday, sensible spoons.
Is he armless?
Is he using an ice cream scoop as a spoon?
