I agree. Unless it's oatmeal, or otherwise "cereal" that was MEANT to be hot...

that hot branflakes stuff just sounds...I dunno...like I said, a purely cheap way to prepare food for an indulgent cat...

Not something I'd try under normal circumstances.

I've only ever met (apart from my father) one other person who's tried microwaves Branflakes and she was a lovely girl I met at University. Embarrassed

Oh it has to be Branflakes, not Crunchy Nut Branflakes or Cornflakes (the milk and cornflakes seem to get too hot and burn the mouth).

I'm sorry James, but there is just something deeply, fundamentally wrong with hot cereals....Pinch

^^Whoa! That sounds...crazy.

I dunno. Sounds like a good way to make homemade catfood...maybe one day when I actually buy branflakes instead of sugar-flaked sugarness like I usually buy.

I doubt it though.

Bill Hicks was right, absolutely no imagination goes into naming these things.
LOL

Get a bowl
Pour in branflakes
Pour in milk
Put bowl in the microwave for 30 seconds to a minute
Remove

Eat... get indigestion.

Approve

that's blasphemy of the highest order... and wouldn't catch on in the UK, where we still cling to the out dated ethos that cereals have to be good for you, and to prove it, need to taste like chip board and rabbit droppings....Pinch

But you don't have to have M&Ms...you can basically order muesli, with all kinds of fresh fruit, and a cup of coffee to boot.

This is amazing.

Also, if this reaches 3 or so pages, I'll change the title and first post to better suit the more general topic of breakfast we are now discussing. get some more in on it.

Haha I see...I'll be staying in America for a while then, though I like my share of bitter things as well...

And savory foods =

Cereal 'bar' in LA
It's basically a restaurant that serves all kinds of cereal.
It's bizarre to say the least.
But tasty, oh, so tasty.

I mean, brown sugar good and all, but why the lemon juice?

It just doesn't sound like a very good combination...it seems like the pancakes would get very dry...
 
Its because in the UK, we are not allowed to eat foods which are too tasty, because we'll feel guilty about it afterwards... we always have to inject a certain amount of bitter/sour/savoury taste, for it to be deemed 'good for you' and therefore healthy...
 
a pancake coated in maple syrup would take up our whole week's sugar ration in a single sitting...Ouch
 
LOL
