Does anybody else use a fork to eat certain cereals?

:confused: Can't say as those I've done that unless I've been lazy and not done dishes in a week.

I use a straw for Krispies of any kind, chopsticks for everything else.

What's so confusing, guys?

If I used a spoon, there would be less than half of the chocolaty goodness at the bottom.. :D

I like a bit of milk with my cereal, not matter what kind (and i mean more milk than what the cereal itself soaks up). If i wanted chocolate milk, i'd buy some.

I can't say I've ever used a fork to eat any kind of cereal, and I don't eat candy bars using a knife and fork either.

I've never used a fork to eat cereal before, but thats because I like some milk with the cereal at the same time.

Same here. Also, while I respect your right to choose your own cereal-eating utensil, you haven't convinced me to try it myself.

Hmm, now I'm hungry for cocoa krispies.

I get it... but I just don't see how using a fork on something like cocoa crispies could be effective... seems like by the time you're done the milk would be warm and gross... and chocolaty.

In all fairness, I like some milk with my cereal too..

I usually let the cereal sit in the freezer, to soak up more milk, if I'm going to use a fork, and to prevent it from getting warm.. I like ice cold milk.

Try orange or grapefruit juice on your cereal. You will NOT want to drink the leftover. ;)

I've eaten soup with a fork so I could use the leftover juice for crackers.

:confused: I still don't see the utility of using a fork? Can't you just use a spoon and spill the milk back into the bowl without loosing the cereal if you really want to save the milk?

I suppose I could, yeah. And I used to do it like that, before I found that using a fork was easier.. lol
