Breakfast cereals

breakfast cereals and oatmeal

My family’s love affair with breakfast cereals is a seasonal thing. Sometimes, we consume one box after another over a period of several weeks then we’d get tired of them. After several months, we’re craving for them again. For me, breakfast cereals are useful for mornings when I’m just too lazy to fix breakfast for myself.

As for oatmeal, I learned long ago that individual packs are more economical than large packs. They might be priced higher but the wastage with large bags of oatmeal is tremendous. Cook 2 cups of oatmeal with so many cups of water and what do you do with leftovers? With per person packs, you cook what you eat (if pouring hot water qualifies as cooking) and nothing is wasted. Plus, you get to choose the flavor. Flavored oatmeal is also great for making pancakes (see entry on blueberry oatmeal pancakes).
