Do you drink the cereal-flavored milk straight from the bowl? I grew up doing this because my parents taught me how good that milk tastes. As I’ve gotten older, I feel a little self-conscious about doing it in public. It’s not something I notice other non-children doing.

Editing to add: I do drink the milk from the bowl. As to when I'm eating it "in public:" hotels mostly. Self-conscious was probably the wrong word. I'm more wondering if people silently judge a grown person drinking cereal milk from the bowl. Not losing sleep if they do, just curious.

Not to be dramatic, but I'd rather die.

When I was growing up, if you wasted that milk you died.

Do you pour it down the drain?

As horrible as that is, I hope they at least don't put the milk back in the carton

Well I'm not gonna dirty up another jug

Yes.

I already ate more sugar than I should have. I'm not going to drink the runoff. I also don't drink the mostly-salt broth from instant ramen.

That's insanely wasteful
