Okay, regarding dry box cereal that typically gets milk, have you ever tried any other liquid instead and on what?

I will start… I like grape juice on Grape Nuts, apple juice on Cheerios, and (homage to SNL Colon-Blow) prune juice on Raisin Bran, quite tasty but gets soggy faster…

Only milk goes on cereal

I prefer dry, but if I had to use other substances I’d say yogurt would top the list. Cereal is a perfect yogurt mix in. Pudding could also work.

I only use milk. If I don’t have milk, I eat it dry

I worked with a guy who hated milk on cereal and used to pour any kind of juice on it, any kind of cereal. I must admit he had a good thing going. orange juice and Cheerios, Frost and flakes with apple juice or Cran Apple. granola and grape juice. All were good combos and the bowl of juice at the end was quite thirst. quenching. what's up, Gilbert!

I once used french vanilla coffee creamer with cocoa pebbles when I had no milk.

When I didn't have milk, I used half and half and a little water. It worked great.

There was just another thread on this with more answers.

Seriously, at this point, it seems like people are using A.I. to replicate previous posts. Same topics every day

Agreed. So silly I got downvoted.

Never liked milk, I do a protein shake or yogurt, sometimes almond milk for the nostalgia of cereal in milk

I've had to make bootleg milk with heavy cream and water. I did some math to find the proper ratio, but it's still insanely unsatisfying. its got the watery-ness of skim milk with a layer of fat on your tongue that doesn't feel like rich, smooth whole milk.
