watch them find a way to use this to complain about how terrible millenials are

I SWEAR TO GOD

ban old people from the internet

old people can be idiots

REASONS MILLENIALS DON’T ALL EAT GODDAMN CEREAL

-cereal is fucking EXPENSIVE. The boxes are thinner than they used to be and for that price, have very low nutritional value except fibre

-MILK for cereal is fucking expensive 

-cereal is NOT FILLING. You have to eat an incredible amount to be full for just one hour, and it is not enough to keep you going through the entire day. 

-cereal is INCONVENIENT. You don’t have to “work” for it (what the fuck does that even mean????? did our parents go out every morning and hunt for their bacon and eggs????) BUT it does take time to prepare and eat

-it CAN’T be made in advance excepting those insane few who like cereal-milk mush. so for those who need to rush out in the morning, it’s useless because it can’t be prepared the night before

-it’s not transportable. You can keep a smoothie in a closed cup with a straw, a protein bar can be packed away in a purse or a pocket–you can’t drink cereal (excepting aforementioned slush), and if you’re on public transit, you’re going to be the asshole spilling milk all over yourself while you desperately try to shovel 4 lbs of grains and sugar into your mouth to keep you full until lunch

-for those who can’t afford to buy bulk cereal and milk AND can’t afford the time to MAKE that shit every morning, it’s so much easier to BUY $2 breakfast from mcdicks

-hey, celiac anyone?

-cereal with ANY nutritional value has fruits and nuts added, and that shit is EXPENSIVE ($8 for a small box of vector cereal, no fucking thank you)

-the other options the millenials listed were ‘smoothie’ and ‘breakfast bar’, both of which are packed with the necessary calories that the average working/schoolgoing/probably both millenial NEEDS. My job has me doing 10,000 steps before noon most days. A 200 kcal bowl of cereal is NOT providing me with the energy for that, but a thick smoothie with a ton of vitamins and minerals or a super-filling breakfast bar with a ton of protein is

-why the fuck is cereal a privilege for the hard workers are you kidding? i cannot get over this. you do not work for cereal. you pour milk into a bowl of grain and eat it for ~20 mins. that’s not work. my mom reads the newspaper with her cereal, she is expending exactly 0 energy eating it. really.

TL;DR, baby boomers are dumb and don’t actually realize that their children have no goddamn time or money. 

and they complain about us letting the cereal industry crash? those old fuckers are the ones who need the damn fibre. let them keep it alive

Thank you for the sincere breakdown of no, no time fo cereal
