I see you don't know how to eat GrapeNuts properly. It does take a little work. Here are the proper steps.
1) Poor about a cup of the cereal into a bowl.
2) Just barely moisten the cereal with milk. Enough to take the hard crunch out of them but there should NOT be a single drop of milk unabsorbed. You might want to start conservative with less milk (say 1 tsp at a time).
3) Stir.
4) Repeat steps 2 and 3 to get just enough milk but none that is not absorbed.
5) If some milk is left unabsorbed, don't panic. You can add just a little more GrapeNuts and stir. When the balance is correct, there is no longer a "clink" as the hard cereal hits the bowl but there is also no milk on the bottom.
6) Add 1 heaping tablespoon of sugar. Possibly 1.5 tbsp if you really like sweets. But for the love of God, don't ever try 2 tbsp per cup of cereal!
7) Stir thoroughly so that every granule has at least one shiny sugar crystal adhered.
The resulting sugary mass is one of the world's greatest food treats (well #1 is Craklin Oat Bran right out of the box).
dullard, I just want some breakfast. I don't want to play chemistry class.
