People who are lactose intolerant.

RexTalionis		2012-05-09 09:27:33 AM

I've done it. Why?

/Oh, and yes, I am lactose intolerant.

Did they test it with a non-nutritive cereal varnish?

The Stealth Hippopotamus		2012-05-09 09:50:19 AM

People who use 2%?

Well to be fair the rest of the world puts stuff on their cereal that comes out of modified sweat glands

DamnYankees		2012-05-09 10:05:21 AM

I knew people who used to put orange juice in cereal.

Freaks.

albert71292		2012-05-09 10:13:58 AM

In his later years, Ward Cleaver poured alcohol on his cereal...

I've been told it tastes better than beer on cereal.

One of the few memories I have of my great grandmother is of her breakfast habits: black coffee over Special K followed by a Winston.

I used to mix OJ and milk but that was when I was about 6 years old.

I've never tried water, that sounds disgusting.

BKITU		2012-05-09 11:14:01 AM

Let he who has never tried Beerios cast the first stone.

Water on oatmeal. It's the right thing to do.

contrapunctus		2012-05-09 11:58:41 AM

Came for the Friday reference. More than satisfied.

the_sidewinder		2012-05-09 11:58:57 AM

Well, I do. Mind, that water has plenty of dissolved and suspended solids, giving it a white colouration

/I don't eat cereal anymore

alowishus		2012-05-09 11:59:10 AM

RexTalionis: I've done it. Why?

/Oh, and yes, I am lactose intolerant.

Why not just eat it dry? I do that all the time.

bim1154		2012-05-09 12:01:00 PM

I've seen people put Pepsi or some other soda on cereal.

gweilo8888		2012-05-09 12:01:28 PM

Weetabix plus boiling water plus sugar equals poor man's porridge.

Lactaid makes a passable milk-like product for those of us who would still like to eat cereal occasionally.

snocone		2012-05-09 12:03:29 PM

1/2&1/2 on my Wheaties, please.
/definately none of that blue milk

"Whether mammary glands are modified sweat glands or sebaceous glands still remains controversial."

It's so funny when people use wikipedia as a reference

it's tastes alright, you ought to try it...
but if that's breakfast, don't be surprised to look into the mirror and discover that you've been into a fight.

An ex-girlfriend of mine did that. She was a little.....unstable.

keiran		2012-05-09 12:04:37 PM

People who are out of milk but haven't made it to the store yet.

drjekel_mrhyde		2012-05-09 12:04:49 PM

For the OJ, water and cola people

My wife is the queen of lactose intolerant and uses any number of those soy/almond or products made for you folks.

Walker		2012-05-09 12:06:22 PM

I put chocolate milk on it.

Podmore		2012-05-09 12:06:31 PM

When I was single, I poured a bowl of granola, then found my milk was sour. I tried it was apple juice instead, and it was actually pretty good. Similar results with rice crispies.

I used to love munching Frosted Mini Wheats dry then take a swig of orange juice and it was delicious. It also caused the most violent of blood sugar spikes and crashes. I'd wind up shaking like a leaf before lunch. Not diabetic or even pre-diabetic. The glucose index on that combination is a biatch.

I_Can't_Believe_it's_not_Boutros		2012-05-09 12:07:59 PM

Poor people, maybe?

My grandmother used to make scrambled eggs with water instead of milk. When I was a little kid, she told me those were her "special" scrambled eggs; later my mom told me that she made it that way because eggs were free but they couldn't always afford milk.

dragonchild		2012-05-09 12:08:42 PM

Anyone who uses skim? That's basically colored water.

RexTalionis		2012-05-09 12:08:44 PM

Cagey B: Lactaid makes a passable milk-like product for those of us who would still like to eat cereal occasionally.

I'm not paying 6 bucks for a quart of Lactaid.

bim1154: My wife is the queen of lactose intolerant and uses any number of those soy/almond or products made for you folks.

I don't miss the taste of milk, so I really have no desire to replace it with any of the alternatives, really. Also, for me, I'm the opposite of what those "super tasters" claim to be. everything (except for ginger) tastes pretty awesome to me.

LeroyBourne		2012-05-09 12:09:01 PM

Heat up some water with the right amount of cornstarch to get it thick enough, it's all about the viscosity. Throw some sugar in it to sweeten it up, there you go.
/ack!

vodka		2012-05-09 12:10:33 PM

Water on cereal? Puke

If you're lactose intolerant then use almond milk. Soy is poison and rice milk is way too sweet.

borg		2012-05-09 12:10:42 PM

This guy, that's who.

tommyl66		2012-05-09 12:11:17 PM

Look, if I want my Cap'n Crunch tree to grow I need to water it daily, OK?

oldfarthenry		2012-05-09 12:11:43 PM

Jeepers, Mum! Water on cereal?
Did you give the new milkman the herp or something?

Mr. Breeze		2012-05-09 12:11:45 PM

Came for the Clark Griswold reference.

Leaving satisfied.

IrishBlunder		2012-05-09 12:12:06 PM

Pfft. Pikers.
Cereal tastes best when moistened by the tears from baby harp seals extracted from them whilst being clubbed.

/I'm pretty sure that's what they use to make Dove ice cream bars too.

Growing up in the late 50s, my mother use to stretch the milk by making another gallon of powdered milk and then mixing real with it half and half. I never got use to it but it was that or nothing. I was so envious of my friend whose parents were more well off than we were and they always had straight up milk, Welch's grape juice and those little variety boxes of cereal.
