Frazz by Jef Mallett for March 12, 2014

I can relate to that.

I know someone that puts the milk in one bowl and the cereal in another because he doesn’t like soggy cereal. There is a bowl for people like him. It has a divider in the center of the bowl. It costs $30.

I liked my cereal drenched in milk. With leftover milk, I would just lift bowl to mouth, tilt, and guzzle.

That said, the problem I had was with “floating” cereals that spilled over the sides of the bowl when I poured the milk. That, and rough textured cereals like Capt. Crunch that tore up the roof of my mouth. Ouch.

Then I started becoming lactose-intolerant in my senior year of high school. Go figure

OCD 1, Portion Control 0.

I don’t eat cereal, and can’t relate. I eat oatmeal, that I make fresh every day. it’s hot, tastes great, and is a fraction of the cost of the pain of walking down the cereal aisle to figure out which one doesn’t have any sugar and is actually nutritious.

Cheerios and Kix I ate fast, Life I let get soggy. But in either case drank the milk after.

Ooooo, yeah – loved the sugared milk after Capt’n Crunch, Lucky Charms & Cocoa Puffs! Now days, it’s Quinoa (not bad, really, and has ALL the essential Amino Acids – Oatmeal is just boring).

This reminds me of a “Baby Blues”, with Zoe at breakfast: “There’s too much syrup left on my plate, I need another waffle…I don’t have enough syrup for this waffle, I need more…there’s too much syrup left on my plate….”
