Now I want to know the origins of adding cereal to milk. Or the origins of quick breakfast cereal (without any of the icky Kellogg dude's freak-ass ideas).
One (quite probably erroneous) story I once heard involved Native Americans eating pop corn for breakfast. I don't recall if the story even mentioned whether they pour milk or some other fluid over the popped corn, or where I heard the story in the first place.
But it's an interesting story, and after all, isn't that "the Truth"?
The answer is "no."

Here's the full quote (I used it as a tagline once)
Hello. I'm Leonard Nimoy. The following tale of alien encounters is true. And by true, I mean false. It's all lies. But they're entertaining lies. And in the end, isn't that the real truth? The answer is: No.
eta: correct quote from a different source.
Darn. The one I've seen most recently is NG Nimoy.
My dad was telling me just yesterday about a one-man show he saw back in Detroit (probably about twenty years ago) that was Nimoy as Theo Van Gogh, and was based primarily on the letters between Theo and Vincent.
I was very jealous.
Didn't Alton Brown talk about Kellogg and serving popcorn as a cold cereal?
P-C, I don't think we can. Sorry. Are you coming to brunch on Saturday?
You bet your ass!
I bet my ass? What did I bet? If my ass wins, what happens? Can my ass default on the bet?
Oh, wait, wait I get it! It's a metaphor!
Dad doesn't drink milk and hates soy milk so he eats his cereal dry.
Actually he eats a combination of 2 or 3 with sliced strawberries or other fruit.
One of my co workers eats his granola with apple juice. He swears it tastes good but it looks to gross for me to try.
