Cereal for Dinner

[electronicash]

It's not a bad choice for one to have cereal as dinner once in a while, not always, though. Cereal is one of the fastest and sweetest meals to have for the family, and kinda affordable and quick to prepare for the family.

I remember when I was growing up at a young age, cereal foods were what my parents liked preparing for me to have as dinner. I was adding in weight because of that, due to the plenty of milk added to the cereal for me to take. Now that have grown old, I don't fancy taking cereal as a meal to avoid diabetes in old age

your parents let you eat cereal for dinner even before this recession and it makes you fatter? that's the darnest comments i read today.  if it just could make me last 8 hours of having cereal in the morning i would have tried it everyday. the easiest for me is the cap noodle.

well there you are folks, when you need get getting, easy solution without having to hire a nutritionist.  if there really is benefit in eating cereal in dinner, its parents not having to cook something like avoiding the laborious preparation from spices to putting them inside the oven down to the platter.

Having cereal for dinner occasionally is fine especially when you need something quick and easy. It can bring back fond childhood memories. However eating cereal every night is not ideal especially if you are monitoring your weight or managing health issues like diabetes. To make cereal healthier option choose whole grain types like Uncle Sam or Quaker Oats and add nuts and seeds and yogurt and milk or fresh fruits to boost protein  fiber and nutrients. This way you can enjoy cereal while taking care of your health.

Yeah, having cereal for dinner sometimes is fine, especially when you're busy or want something quick. It can even remind you of being a kid! But eating it all the time isn’t the best if you’re trying to stay healthy or watch your weight.

Cereals are artificial food full of sugar like some other donuts made in a factory run by conveyors. Although its occasionally fine, it will make you get used to it since you will realize there is something to eat even if you don't prepare dinner.

This kind of suggestion from the cereal company itself is like an indication that people are really doing this due to financial struggle since there is economic crisis. They introduce a solution but its also going to destroy your health.

Cereal for dinner sounds like a great idea—sometimes you just need something quick and satisfying! I love mixing my cereal with a non-dairy milk option, and I’ve recently been using coconut milk powder.

Yeah but if it was consumed every day then that would be not good but better than nothing. If fruits are available it can be mixed with it to add more nutrients and taste. I've seen something like this situation in the frontlines of war in Ukraine wherein soldiers utilize what is available on their supplies like canned goods, chocolates, biscuits and oatmeals especially if their MRE's are all consumed and they are still in the middle of the battlefield. To survive on whatever crisis we are in, we eat whatever we see that are edible.

Cereals on their own are not loaded with sugar or additives/preservatives for that matter, but companies do produce those 'tasty' ones and if one wants they can purchase. You can purchase raw cereals if you are not can of processed ones.

if there is nothing else a family can afford i guess the cereal will do. they get used to it being their dinner once they tried it 2 times or 3. sad story but if there is nothing else to eat, its just the only option.

but of course there are options out there. if they only know how Asians eat and how they farm rice just so they can sustain daily meals. For westerners, stew whichever the meat and bread can always be a good pair.

Eating cereal for dinner is not something to argue over, because if there is no choice at that point, due to economic circumstances you can have cereal for dinner, because is is quite affordable and it is light also.

On point, for me, I prefer taking snacks such as cereal, chips or tea, as far as it won’t take me long to prepare because most at times I don feel very tired at evening or night, that I might not have enough energy to prepare any food, Instead I will look for something light and eat and also it’s even cheaper, one can easily afford it at a very low price and a much faster to prepare.

because of economic situation today, more and more people are skipping meals not because to save extra cash but people don't have anything to spend.  i am not in a different position actually, i have my time where i have nothing to spend. so if i would consider eating something, i would eat something cheap like the noodles pairs with sausage or a bowl of rice and a few shanghai rolls which is even cheaper.

cereal however is what is suggested by Kellog's CEO which i think is far from what people have in mind when it comes to dinner because cereal is synonymous to breakfast. but anyway would you bring this up to your family to eat cereal at dinner?

In a recent push to adapt to changing consumer habits and economic pressures, major food conglomerates WK Kellogg Co. and PepsiCo Inc. are reimagining dinner plates across the nation. With grocery prices surging by 25% over the past four years, these companies suggest that traditional dinner options could take a backseat to more unconventional choices like Frosted Flakes and Dorito casseroles.

WK Kellogg CEO Gary Pilnick, highlighted cereal as an economical and versatile dinner option in a CNBC interview, stating, "The cereal category is a great place for consumers under pressure. We’re advertising about cereal for dinner. Think about the cost of cereal for a family versus what they might otherwise do."

Cereals are very light are best for dinners. This is because when one is going to bed it is expected that one stay clear from heavy food because it tends to dulls and weaken the body the following day. Medically, eating of heavy food is not recommendable because the food may not easily digest before one goes to bed. With this said eating of light food like cereals is not bad

My child used to eat cereals for dinner (not because we are in short for money, but if that is what child wants to eat, why not? its not an every day dinner meal in the end) but it does not end good, because in few hours child is hungry again, but because it is considered as dinner, my child prefer to take snacks and sweets before night sleep, instead of eating proper food.

Cereals are light, but are digested fast, and cereals are totally not enough to wait 10-12 hours before breakfast. For me cereals are more like snacks than a proper dinner, lunch or breakfast. It is only something that you might take if you are really hungry and cant wait for a proper meal.

Dont forget that not everyone eats plain cereals, like default Kellogs Corn flakes. People prefer to eat cereals with cinnamon, sugar, chocolate flavors and additions, etc. Its a lot of sugar. So its a portion of sugar after which you will still be hungry shortly for dinner. Think about it.

This. Since here in my country most of us prefer heavy meals I know few people will survive only eating cereals which is for me considered as snacks as well. I am not a kid anymore so I need foods with more energy that is also makes my tummy comfortable until the next meal. It seems my little pets inside me will complain of starvation. 😅

What cereal your child eats, if I may ask? I eat oats regularly in mornings and they keep me full till long time.

I have not tried corn flakes, but I always figured from their looks that they would not be filling.

Are these synthetic foods even healthy? I am not a fan of eating this kinda food everyday though I have tried it before when I was a kid but I am wondering if those nutrients we got are legit or just gimmick? I don't personally eat breakfast that is why this isn't an option for me.

[Findingnemo]

I don't think it's enough, yeas I understand that economic struggles can be hard sometimes but do we really need to focus on the meal for the cost saving? Why not other things like we do for things that is unnecessary like on fuel that we can walk, living in high-rent place, and such.

At least in terms of oats — synthetic and raw both options are available. I also don't like synthetic ones due to weird INS stuff they add, I just don't think it's good for us, so I stick to raw.

Regarding nutrients, I stick to body response after eating, you know particular food is bad when you feel weird after eating it.
