Do you drink the cereal-flavored milk straight from the bowl? I grew up doing this because my parents taught me how good that milk tastes. As I’ve gotten older, I feel a little self-conscious about doing it in public. It’s not something I notice other non-children doing.

Editing to add: I do drink the milk from the bowl. As to when I'm eating it "in public:" hotels mostly. Self-conscious was probably the wrong word. I'm more wondering if people silently judge a grown person drinking cereal milk from the bowl. Not losing sleep if they do, just curious.

If there's milk left over, you put too much in.

I just add a little more cereal to soak it up.

"whoops, there's too much milk left over, I'll just add some cereal"

"Oh no, now my milk is finished, but I still have cereal left, I'll just add some more milk"

"Well now I have extra milk again, time for more cereal"

I see where you're going....

Pretty close - when eating cereal the correct method is to eat all the cereal and then refill with a slightly smaller amount of cereal, eat that, and repeat one or two more times until there's no milk or cereal left.

This is the most psychotic take I've ever seen on cereal. It's a recipe for making cereal a 1,000 calorie breakfast if the cereal in question isn't super absorbent

That's alright though, breakfast should be at least 40% of your daily caloric intake.
