I’m eating more cereal because it’s less work.

They’ll never know the joys of Apple Jacks and Capn Crunch.

Bowl? Cups? You just eat a couple handfuls right out of the box and drink the milk from the carton.

I suppose pouring a little milk into those to-go cereal cups I’ve seen would be too much bother.

Walk from the cupboard, to the refrigerator, to the silverware drawer.
Now who has THAT kind of abundant time available to them?!

ever run out of milk and try water or condensed milk on cereal? It is not awesome.

I stopped eating cereal because I realized it wasn’t actually food. I’m no longer eating grains or sugar, and if you take away the grains and sugar, all that’s left of cereal is the box.

I also believe that the snowflakes are afraid to leave their “safe space” in mommy’s basement to go to the kitchen to shake a box of cereal into a bowl and poor some milk on it. Then again, you never really know what kind of monsters are living in the refrigerator.

Someone must be eating it. The cereal aisle at my grocery store is roughly 6 feet high by 50 feet long with shelves that are 2 feet deep. The 3 nearby Walmart stores all have aisles that are probably closer to 65 feet just for cereal.

Do you remember when the Saturday morning cereal commercials all had the tag line "Part of this complete breakfast", which consisted of two eggs, bacon, toast, orange juice and milk in addition to the bowl of cereal.

Even as a young kid, I remember thinking, "Who's going to eat all THAT for breakfast?"

What a sorry bunch the Millennials are, and what’s really amazing, these slackers think VERY highly of themselves.

Switch to bacon. It comes in convenient single serving packages.

Interesting. My parents opposed kids’ cereals with tons of sugar, like Sugar Pops, Fruit Loops and Frosted Flakes. Thus, I had Cheerios and Raisin Bran all the way through college and then adapted to cappuccinos and bagels.

My nieces and nephews in Sweden east gallons of plain yogurt along with toast and coffee in the mornings.

Bacon requires no cleanup. Just use the same pan everyday. Place cooked bacon on napkin and eat right from napkin.

Why aren't millennials eating cereal? Apparently, it's just too much work.

Almost 40% of millennials surveyed by Mintel said that cereal was an inconvenient breakfast choice, because they have to clean up after eating it, reports the New York Times.

They're using the wrong words. The cleanup thing is idiotic. The millenials are saying it takes too much time. You have to SIT THERE and eat it. Is that work? I don't think it's the same thing.

Just this morning, over a bowl of gluten free cheerio type cereal, I reminisced about all the reading I did as a kid

I read every single word on every box set before me .... corn flakes, usually

And I cut out the masks and once, someone had printed on the cardboard, a 45 phonograph record I cut out and it actually played

I don't remember what it was ....

But a lot of my reading comprehension is courtesy of Battle Creek Michigan ... and Iowa and Kellogg's and ...
