Using up breakfast cereal

valk_scot

I just make them eat it tbh. No new box is forthcoming while there's still some in the old box, and it's their own bloomin' fault if it's gone soft because they left the bag open. Anyway as I tell them it goes soft fast enough as soon as the milk goes on top. Which is true btw.

You could try spreading them on a baking sheet and popping into a hot oven for 10 minutes to crisp up again. It works for biscuits so I think it might work for cereal too.

Yes, I always go this with stale cereal (not that mine usually goes stale as I seal the bags with klippits). Once the cereal has cooled it's crispy again.

Hi carrie,

If it's unopened I would take it back and change it for the right one. If that's not an option this thread might give you some ideas:

I'll add your thread to that one later to keep the suggestions together.

If it is the Aldi one it is rather nice as it is but yucky with milk.

Try crushing some and using in Twinks
Or as part of flapjacks
or in rocky roads
