Why does cereal only taste good with milk?

Question

Why does cereal only taste good with milk?

Answer 1

I personally think it's because it's a common thing. So now when they make different ones, or improve on the same cereal, they make it have a great comparing flavor to the milk. Kinda like they should go hand in hand, the cereal is designed around the milk, almost. =)

Answer 2

It doesn't sometimes I like corn flakes on their own sometimes.

I usually eat it with milk coz it's very dry

Answer 3

That's because just like on the cereal box, milk and cereal were made for each other.:)  And ,its because you like milk.  Milks tasty.:)

Answer 4

i cant see eating rice krispies without milk.  it would just be too dry and weird.  besides, there would be no snap, crackle and pop!

Answer 5

What makes you think it is only good with milk.

Answer 6

Try Raisin Bran and beer!  You will never be the same again!

Answer 7

man, i'm always carrying a baggy of frosted flakes around with me haha=) i think milk makes it soggy and gross and i'd rather just eat it without the milk=)

Answer 8

It's a tradition kind of thing!

Answer 9

Actually some cereal I think taste better without milk like Cinnomon toast crunch, cheerios, etc.

Answer 10

I like Raisin Nut Bran with strawberry yogurt. I like Cocoa Puffs right out of the box. I only eat Chex if it's made into Chex Mix first. And I only eat Rice Crispies if they are made into Rice Crispie Treats.

Answer 11

Depends on the cereal.  I LOVE cheerios right from the box.  They taste more like popcorn or snack food.  I also like to eat Chex cereal that way, or Crispix.

I think maybe we get conditioned what to eat with our cereal.  Granola cereals are great with yogurt.
