Pour the desired amount of cereal into a bowl. Add milk, whether dairy or a plant-based alternative, to soften the pieces and create a more liquid consistency. Stirring is optional. Some people prefer to let it sit for a moment to absorb the liquid, while others enjoy the crunch immediately. It can also be eaten dry as a snack straight from the box.

How to keep the rest
After opening, reseal the inner bag or close the box tightly to maintain freshness and prevent staleness. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. This helps preserve the cereal's crispness and flavor for future servings.
