Eating dry corn flakes - no milk etc... Mixed with fruit..

iv-tecman · 19 Oct 2009 at 14:06

Strange to see my gf eat a mix of corn flakes and cheerios without any milk as a snack last night….

Now, I’ve been known to have a bowl of cereal a few hours before bed, but I tend to have some semi skimmed milk in the bowl as well.

Ok, whilst we were watching TV I was chomping on a bar of chocolate and a bag of crisps, not particularly healthy but why not..!! But when I saw the gf sit down with a bowl of dry cornflakes and cheerios I was like – WTF. She claimed that she was peckish and rather then eat chocolate with me, as she is on a diet she decided to eat cereal without milk as it would be healthier???

Never eaten dry cereal before, so I tried it. Its really dry, gf really has got some strange habits at the moment…. Told me she sometimes puts apple or grapes in the bowl as well???

Had to ask ‘sure you’re not pregnant’..!! ?? lol

I eat branflakes with no milk, quite nice.

Cheerios aren't exactly healthy though!

I used to eat Froot Loops dry

The only cereal that can (and in fact must) be eaten without milk by Law is Curiously Cinnamon aka Cinnamon Grahams.

And that is only because adding milk completely and entirely obliterates all structural and taste integrity.

At Uni I learned Beer works well as a milk substitute!

Maybe... not as bad for you as a bar of diary milk and a bag of walkers though... lol

I always did that as a kid!

Now rarely I buy Fruit Rings from Lidl which are the exact same. The snack away

I eat wheatabix dry, with butter spreaded on the top of it! awesome with a cup of tea

Hmm.. so not as daft as I thought it was then. I couldn't eat weetabix dry. I can't even eat those things without sugar.

I used to eat Frosties dry, just take a handful and eat them

They're Great!!!!

I occasionally eat cheerios dry for a snack, healthier than crisps, same savoury fix and crunchy, also prompts me to drink more water, so all good

How can cheerios be savoury? Cereals are sweet as a standard.

I can eat museli dry, i can eat most cereal dry, its no different than eating crisps or nuts, or dried fruit.

not if you get basic stuff, cornflakes aren't sugared, it's a little sweet, but not overly
