    If you can’t see the milk, too little. If the bowl can possibly overflow while you’re eating, too much. Can’t give an exact ratio, but that’s the line I live on.

    I don’t know but for me having the ratio hit at the end of my meal could take just a bowl or a whole box. But I ain’t stoppin’ until the cereal and the milk are gone at the same time.

    Just add milk until the entire pile of cereal starts to lift. Usually when the milk reaches the base level of the cereal itself.

    Just enough so that, by the time I finish the cereal, there’s only a little milk left.

    Edit: The way I do it is to have a layer of granola on the bottom, then a layer of whatever floaty cereal on top. When I fill it with milk, it’s a little bit below the top layer so that it’s just a little less than what would make it float. That usually gives me the perfect ratio.

    Pour cereal. Pour milk. As soon as boyancy causes the cereal to rise, stop pouring the milk.

    Perfect every time. 👌

    Input milk until bowl is halfway full, or over third full, depending on the size of the bowl.

    Input cereal until bowl is full of cereal but cereal is still floating.

    1. Use a square bowl placed on top of a circular plate.
    2. Add 11 parts water, then 2 parts cereal, using a mix of ancient Babylonian and traditional Japanese volumetric units (bonus points if you don’t actually convert them).
    3. Heat in the oven at 709 °R for exactly 73037 ms.
    4. Once heated, let it cool to exactly room temperature by placing it outside (regardless of the weather).
    5. Add a generous layer of cold ketchup on top, forming a smiley face.

    Optional: Garnish with a sprig of mint and serve with a side of existential dread. Bon appétit!

    No milk in anything for 4+ years now.

    Half a handful of:

    • fortified whatever-brand O’s
    • peanuts
    • fruit and nut trail mix
    • top off with granola
    • prefect amount of water to end with a dry bowl but only barely

    I thought my stomach issues was just a human thing. I always drank a bunch of milk. My chronic back issues from disability make me very sensitive to additional inflammation. So I tried eliminating milk one time for a few weeks to see how it affected me. It was night and day. I felt so much better that I never went back.

    I just fill the bowl with a lot of milk then take the box of cereal with me, and keep refilling until either I’m full or the milk’s all gone.

    1 cup cereal, 1tsp powdered milk, 1/2 cup faucet water. Make sure the water is warm so that the powdered milk mixes better.
