I like to leave my cereal soaking up the milk For a few minutes until it’s gone lovely and soft and mushy.

I don’t know anybody else that likes it like this. Am I the only person in the world who likes soggy cereal? Also, what food habits / likes do you have that everyone else finds weird?

I like both depending on the cereal, although I usually eat porridge. Before I got so health conscious my favourite cereals in the summer, would be rice Krispies or corn flakes, not supermarket brand, with ice cold full fat milk. Sometimes a little double cream on rice Krispies, so they kind of stick together. Yummy. I like them to start off crispy but don't mind if they go soggy. Weetabix has got to be just about the right amount of milk, so not too dry or soggy.

Oh wow. This thread is an eye opener. I thought weetabix was supposed to be soggy!

Never had it crunchy. Ever.

Soggy is much better particularly let BRAN FLAKES soak up the milk for a decent length of time before eating!!!

Fucking disgusting EnvyGrin

I do. But I’m wheat free. And some of the wheat free cereal is better when it is soggy. Sigh ... I miss real Ceres

Me too

Only weetabix can be soft. I like my cereal crunchy and have to eat it as soon as I make it so it doesn’t go soggy. Same with toast has to be piping hot and crispy, I hate it when it starts to go cold and soggy Envy

I’m the same OP! I also like stale crisps/rice cakes and deliberately leave the packet open so they go a bit cardboardy...accept that might be a bit far for some people 😂

Therealfatshady · 19/05/2020 20:20

Depends on the cereal. Corn flakes... No. Shredded wheat... Hell yeah! I actually crush it up in the packet and let it bathe in the milk so it's soft and slippery 😁 like eating rice noodles!

I prefer tepid soup. I hate scalding hot food anyway and don’t drink hot drinks at all.

If you like soggy cereal go for it! I havent had Weetabix in ages, but when I do I like it mushed up not crispy.

Ah cold toast! Another one of my preferences. I don’t butter the toast when it’s hot - the butter just disappears into the bread! What a pointless waste of butter! I let the toast cool down then butter it. So I can see, feel and taste the butter. 😋

Glad to see I’m not the only one who prefers soggy cereal. My DC hate it soggy, as does DP. Now I know I’m not weird. Just in a minority.

I put a small amount of milk in then a glug of double cream on top... I'm naughty like that Grin

Love soggy cereal! Weetabix, cornflakes & Rice Crispies. All soggy, cold milk & just leave for a while. Bonus if it's the bottom of the bag! Smile
