My gf of 4 yrs makes fun of me cause says I'm the only person she knows who will eat cereal out of a glass rather then a bowl not sure when I started doing it but its been many many years now. If I eat it for a meal I will use a bowl but for a late night snack i always just eat it out of my glass, Still use a Spoon, just wondered if anyone else did this or am I the only one/

    I will opt of a mug over a bowl. Um, it has a handle so I can hold it while I'm sprawled on my couch watching Netflix!

    I do ALL the time. And since I've found MFP I eat it out of my measuring tumbler (for shakes) or my Pyrex cup!

    Gotta be accurate with the calories!

    I eat my cereal with yogurt in a glass most mornings. I am not a bowl person as I even like to serve soup in a soup mug.

    Lol, I've gone as far as pouring milk in the box (with plastic bag in it). I eat cereal straight out of the box alot.

    Cup but use my fingers. Best way ever. I chow down like that! A bowl is too bulky when I am relaxing.

    I love eating cereal out of a mug, stems from my boarding school days where we only had our mugs on us, and they doubled up as bowls. :)
