What happened to the core eco-driven youth? The go-greeners?
Oh wait, washing a bowl and spoon uses water? Use a recyclable yogurt container instead? Other?

My "kids" (one 20, one 17) love cereal.

Because I do the dishes half the time. Their mom does them the other half.

yep...can’t eat it on the run.

might have to sit at the table and encounter a family member, as it interferes with texting and surfing.

I think they prefer a beer and some of last night’s left over pizza.

Honestly I don’t like to eat anything that takes more than three steps to prepare.
Opening and closing the microwave counts as two.

So, they need to market a self-contained food item that consists of cereal and milk in a disposable bowl - all they have to do is open it, eat it, and throw it away.

Reminds me of the first time I saw pre-made PB&J in the store - apparently opening TWO SEPERATE jars and scooping the contents onto a piece of bread was just too damned hard for some people....

Don’t they want to grow up big and strong like Bernie Sanders?

At $4.50 for a box of carbs it is hardly a economically reasonable investment.

You used to be able to buy small, one serving boxes of cereal. Then you could cut open the box and pour the milk into it and eat it right out of the box, no bowl!

Oh wait, I see the problem here....... You would have to wash the spoon and put the knife away in the knife drawer............ Way too much to deal with, let's go to a drive thru........!

Chew.

Swallow.

Problem solved!

I’m a Realtor and I rarely have buyers in their 20’s that want a single family home. They want a condo etc because they don’t want to be bothered with yard work and upkeep.

My daughters are 22 and 19 and they never have cereal. Protein bars, granola bars, a squeeze yogurt are the preference.

I don’t eat cereals. Haven’t for most of my adult life. Hard boiled eggs work well and require minimum clean up (I came up with that one pre-millenial-ha). I eat yogurt and fruit from a rubbermaid container. (I have enough containers to get through a week)
Weekends are for a good Oatmeal.

The big take away from this article isn’t the cereal, but the shift to ordering more food pre-made and in a way that’s disposable. Cereal is a big casualty.

I make (except yogurt-I need a raw milk source) almost all of the food I eat from scratch. It freaks people out if they were from a home where cooking and knife skills weren’t modeled.

I have been not eating cereal since before not eating cereal was cool.

I’m more of an omelet with cheese and some variety of dead pig person.

I never was much of a cereal eater and now that I read the contents of food packages and decide what I will eat I have no reason to buy the stuff.

Too much crap in that sugar laden mess.

After cereal, one should always have a health bowl movement...
