this is inaccurate, dog food is more nutritious for dogs than cereal is for humans. the closest human equivalent of dog food is probably textured vegetable protein.

That’s what the milk is for you dry cereal eating psychopaths.
Some people add water (or goat milk or broth) to the kibble for extra hydration

Fine I'll add to the discourse. Not all cereals are as sugary as people are saying. Cheerios only have a couple grams of sugar per serving, and you're probably eating two servings or less. Only issue with the comparison is you don't suspend dog food in a liquid like you do with cereal. And you need that (soy) milk for protein.

Agreed, but as somebody who makes a conscious rule to only buys cereals with <6g of sugar per 30g (a pretty easy-to-clear bar), I have to rule out about 80% of breakfast cereals that my stores stock.

breakfast cereals are just dessert for breakfast, but regular 'cereals' like whole grain oats are great and tbh i don't see many dogs eating cereals

I've genuinely jaw-dropped at the amount of sugar in American cereals. Some of them are literally just candy (isn't there like a Reese's Puffs cereal or something???).
Any of porridge, bran, fruit wheats, and just actual fruit makes a tasty and human food breakfast.
Yes. I ate Reese's puffs exclusively from like age 9-11. I'm amazed I turned out all right lol

There's an Oreo one too, I also remember Cookie Crisp from when I was a kid.
Even as a kid I liked my bran cereals or oatmeal. The sweetest thing I could tolerate was raisin bran.

The cereal breakfast is just there becuase of the american capitalist propaganda machine is so strong , I remember reading multiple times that corn flakes were created by kellogs to get libidos of people down, except cereals are high in carb and sugars , which increase obesity unless that is being burnt actively , which most middle class/ working class people cant !

Dry cereal? Dog food. Wet Cereal? Human food.
Hold on though
