the solution to every human problem is “don’t have kids”
no humans, no human problems
pull out of her.
pull out of her.
Do you want kids? Because that’s how you get kids.
And it’s dry… I was just looking at her in disbelief the whole time. Then we have lunch and she gobbled 1kg of fruit afterwards… Bitch’s not even fat yo where she’s storing all that shit?
Cereal is the most delicious thing in the universe that doesn’t require anything more than pouring two things into a bowl. No peeling, heating, mixing, blending, layering, etc. Two things, in a bowl, and what you don’t use goes back in the place it came from.
That bowl was a little big for me, I’ll just drain the milk back into the jug and put these soggy bits back in the box.
y’know, the kids in africa and all
I thought the rock stars fixed that ages ago.
Kids in Africa also don’t like soggy cereal?
If you use a funnel to pour the cereal into the jug, you can have a swig of soggy bits on demand!
Until one day, when you’re eating soup and innocently toss in some croutons, only to realize that what you’re eating is essentially cereal: savory edition, which you find so inexplicably disgusting that you can’t even stomach the thought of regular cereal for a depressing amount of time
Vanilla soy latte is a three-bean soup.
Neither coffee nor vanilla is a bean. Coffee is a seed of the coffea family and vanilla is an orchid
If cereal can be a soup, coffee can be a bean.
Soup is a dish preparation. While I am fine with arguing that even drinkable coffee is a soup or broth and cereal has soup like properties. No, coffee is a very different part of the plant kingdom than legumes or orchids. If you just call a blue whale a bird, it does not become even remotely true.
I think that with enough sauce, chicken alfredo becomes a soup. Where do I fit on the chart?
That would be ramen Alfredo, so you’re not quite a soup anarchist, but that’s probably for the best.
“Ugh I hate clam chowder. Its just hot ocean milk with dead animal croutons.”
He definitely says “shao-dieeeer”
It’s the best when you’re baked too. It really helps with the dry mouth
I usually eat it dry with a glass of oat milk on the side.

Excuse me, you can pour crack and pop rocks into a bowl.
Depends which cereal we’re talking about. I’ve watching those ‘lets make lucky charms / something with chocolate’ videos and they’re basically making a complicated soup, solidifying it, and cutting it up into tiny pieces, just to make a basic soup of milk afterwards.
The weirdest thing to me was realising zalot of cereals already contain milk. Actual liquid milk, that is, baked in.
I’m still can’t believe some crazy guy 100 years ago convinced the whole country that eating sugar with milk is somehow a healthy breakfast. And the same guy convinced the same country to do the genital mutilation on male infants.
You’re combining the two Kellogg brothers. One thought that pleasure was sin, and that a good diet should be as bland as possible to maintain piety. The other thought his brother’s cereal tasted like shit and was really hard to market and sell, until he added sugar and salt, then subsequently became filthy rich.
Ironically, pre-sugared cereal may have also reduced the amount of sugar in kids’ cereal. For a while, kids were taking regular cereal and dumping sugar on it. Instead of actually parenting and telling them no, the parents started buying sugary cereal.
And both were done with the goal of reducing masturbation.
Knowing better has a full day’s worth of content on this, if you’d like to know more
? I thought both Jackson and Kellogg didn’t like sugar? Kellogg even believed excitement caused masturbation, and wanted bland unexciting food was the way to go. That and dick piercings that would make erections painful.
Dont forget the yogurt enemas.
Yeah true but it’s so fucking good sometimes
Genital mutilation?
Don’t fucking judge my breakfast
Kellogg’s theory was that bland foods that were full of fiber would stop people from masturbating.
Because he didn’t approve of that kind of icky nonsense.
So I think the sugar came later.
I think Graham of Graham crackers was working with a similar concept.
To be fair, my husband will just have 6 bowls of cereal in a row all of a sudden.
But my son… here he is with his mixing bowl.
Edit: when my son went through a miso soup phase, he would get the big mixing bowl and use a whole block of tofu. Probably straight up 2L of miso broth. For context, he is 6’2” and 19.
Your son is producing fewer dishes. Be better, husband.
Husband does reuse the bowl though. He is not a monster.
That or he’s really good at hiding it…
Are the tofu blocks in America bigger or something, because 200g tofu isn’t that much of a deal.
It’s 454 grams, I just checked.
Ok, that’s something
It’s human kibble basically
Try this:
- instead of a giant bowl pour a regular bowl with extra milk
- when you finish the cereal do not drink the milk
- pour more cereal
- repeat as desired
I unironically wish this was a thing. And was halfway decent and nutritious.
This is what I would refer to the extra big bags of cereal as when living with a friend and it was his turn to do grocery shopping.
“1x bachelor chow cinnamon crunch, 1x fruity pebbles.”
You said kibble?
Is that Chiwetel Ejiofor?
Dominique Tipper from The Expanse.
And after about halfway through the third bowl you begin to regret everything
Food pellets.
The milk gets too warm.
When I was a teen in highschool… I was in a weightlifting gym class and I did soccer. When is get home, for a snack if have a party pizza (or two). Probably went through a carton of milk myself. God my mom was so pissed. I was probably half or grocery budget alone for a few years
Someone probably shouldn’t be your teenage son AND your husband.
That’s because that isn’t food.
No, it’s because teenage boys eat a lot
Source: was teenage boy, ate a lot
Cereal isn’t food? I am curious to hear your logic here…
I’m sure you could scarf down an entire party size bag of Doritos on your own as well. That doesn’t make it a good or preferred source of nutrition.
Try asking the kid if he can routinely scarf down a dozen eggs every morning. He won’t, unless he’s the size of Andre The Giant, because that’s actual food that will correctly signal satiety.

Anyways I assume the story is referring to the industrial sludge Americans call “breakfast cereal”, garbage that is designed to be addictive. And not, say, some kind of ancestral Kashi type of thing.
If it were actual food, you wouldn’t be able to eat so much of it. Nothing in nature would have been easily available in industrial quantities like that, making it extremely unlikely we evolved to eat so much of it. It’s engineered to be that way.
I could eat an entire fucking box of plain “corn flakes” if you let me when I was 16. No sugar, no milk. Was some store brand knock off cereal too. Didn’t even have added sugar. Was basically cardboard flakes.
But fuck did I love them. I miss those shitty ass cereals now everything has a pound of added sugar ):
Hm. I remember I ate 6-8 scrambled eggs with two packed sandwhiches for breakfast when I was a teen, and I am only average height.
On the other hand, once my metabolism slowed down I started inflating like a baloon and had really hard time learning how to eat less xD
Name checks out…
Can’t wait! I’d eat like 4-5k calories a day, and literally couldn’t put on weight, although swimming competitively helped a bit I’m sure. Was just a bean pole.
Smoked an unhealthy amount of weed as a kid too, and my go-to high snack was a half gallon of milk and an Entemann’s All Butter French Crunbcake. Believe it or not, I cannot eat like that anymore.
I lifted weights (not competitively), had PE class and did folk dance and that was enough that I could also eat around 4-5k calories daily and not put on much weight besides a little muscle mass
Ah and I also cycled to school oftentimes
Was it not illegal back then to smoke weed when you were a teen
Ah yes, because the legality of it famously stopped so many people from smoking weed…
Well, you could get put in jail! They would risk getting high for that? Bit stupid, honestly.
Yes, it was. Nobody was going to jail over weed though. They handed it a year of probation if you got caught by the cops.
Lpt: replace all - and i mean all the snacks and prepackaged food with fruits and vegtables or just healthy things. Watch, as these thi gs will last for seemingly forever. Until you’ll be forced to eat them. It’s funny
In my experience, without the drive of ‘I need to eat better’ really being cemented into your soul, this will just result in everyone covertly buying snacks and letting tons of fruit go to waste.
People do seem to like nuts though, barring a legitimate reason like an allergy I don’t think I’ve met anyone that dislikes nuts.
That makes sense. They are full of fats, proteins, and other carbs. Lots of them are even dusted in salt or sugar
One of my best friends doesn’t like nuts. He’s very sensitive to bitterness.
See that just blows my mind, I would never describe nuts as bitter.
Or they might develop cooking skills, which enables you to turn even the healthiest of ingredients into delicious junk.
Yeah that was me. Come home from school after eating a big school lunch, eat a quarter loaf of bread and 1L milk. Have a 2 hour nap, eat 2 servings for dinner, ask if anyone else wants more before scraping the leftovers in the pots and pans onto my plate.
Bachelor chow!
I saw this in a movie once. Ever since I thought it was super normal to do this and always got so sick.
Friday
No it’s Thursday
Friday here
This is Patrick
My parents always had rice in the rice cooker and some kind of stew in the fridge. My favorite is the pig feet stews.
Cereal is overated
Agree. Cereal is so overrated.
