Breakfast cereal

[jedusor]

For as long as I can remember, I've had it in my head that I dislike cereal, except occasionally granola. I just ate a bowl of Cheerios, and realized that I like cereal just fine. The reason that I originally decided I didn't was that when I was little, I always read during meals, and usually got immersed in the book and thus ate slowly; when you do this with cereal, it gets soggy and gross. Now that I actually eat food reasonably quickly, there's no reason to avoid cereal.

Growing up and noticing this sort of thing is weird.

I discovered that I actually like the taste of chicken, as in it's not just a neutral flavor holder, when I was 36. I'm glad I'm not alone in continuing to discover silly little things about myself.

If you wan to really dislike cereal, try Froot Loops and beer.

I always had it in my head that I liked cereal just fine, but just not enough to buy it for myself; I'd rather eat bread for breakfast - then I had some at my sister's house and realised that I really dislike both the taste and the entire concept. :/

Pfft! I eat cereal without milk. That way I can eat it straight from the box. (-8
