To prepare this cereal, pour a serving into a bowl. Add milk, whether dairy or a non-dairy alternative, to cover the cereal. Allow it to soak for a moment to soften slightly, or enjoy it immediately for a crunchier texture. Some people prefer to add fresh fruit like berries or sliced bananas for added flavor and texture. It can also be eaten dry straight from the box.

How to keep the rest

After opening the box, it is best to store the remaining cereal in an airtight container or resealable bag. This helps to maintain its crispness and prevent it from becoming stale. Keep the container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture, to preserve its quality.
