To prepare this cereal for breakfast, simply pour your desired amount into a bowl. Add cold milk, and let it sit for a moment to soften slightly before eating. The frosted coating adds a pleasant sweetness, so you may not need to add any additional sugar. It can also be eaten dry as a crunchy snack.
