It starts innocently. You wake up. You’re hungry. You pour some cereal.
And then it hits you: do you pour milk… or are you one of those creatures who uses water?? 👀
Welcome to one of the most controversial breakfast debates in American history — and yes, it’s real.
🥛 The Case for Milk
Classic. Creamy. Comforting.
People who use milk say cereal isn’t cereal without it. It’s like watching Netflix without Wi-Fi. You get flavor, balance, and that sweet, sweet cereal milk after the final bite.
“Using milk is tradition. Using water is a crime.” — Cereal Purist #038
đź’§ The Case for Water
Yes, people actually do this. Some say it’s for health reasons. Others ran out of milk and just… kept going.
Apparently, water “lets the cereal flavor shine.” But what it really does is make your breakfast taste like disappointment.
“It’s crunchy. It’s wet. It’s sad.” — Anonymous Kellogg’s survivor
⚖️ Neutral Zone: Dry Cereal
Then there’s the rogue group who eats cereal dry like trail mix.
These people are often mysterious and may or may not be planning world domination.
🥄 The Verdict?
There is none. This breakfast war will rage on forever — in kitchens, in college dorms, and in cursed TikToks.
But one thing’s clear: if you’re using orange juice instead, you need help.
