    Milk should be poured before the cereal. I’ve always done this because pouring milk on top of the cereal gets the top wet and also kind of pushes the cereal down. I love crunchy cereal

      This is my take as well. My spouse thinks I’m crazy.

      When I go for a bowl of cereal, I pour out as much cereal as I want, then add the appropriate amount of milk. I would NEVER pour myself a hearty bowl of milk and then just cereal to taste. That’s the part that feels craziest to me.

      I need the cereal wet. I don’t like dry cereal, it is too hard on my mouth and gums up my mouth.

      I put the cream/milk in before I pour the coffee though. This guarantees there is always room for the right amount of milk and it mixes automatically without needing a stirrer.

      As someone who pours the milk second: I have crunchy top cereal all the time, I think you might be doing something weird homie

      Milk first makes it possible to get the wrong ratio of cereal to milk because

      1. the cereal floats and you have no idea how much you put in there
      2. You can underestimate how much volume the cereal takes up and not leave enough room in your bowl
