IMO those containers are dumb and don't keep the cereal fresh at all unless you're just chowing down on cereal all the time.

we use these for like 4 different kinds of cereal and they work great. The only issue is that we get giant costco size cereal sometimes and it all doesn't fit in the container so there is like a week or so of a bag of cereal in the cabinet too.

SSOC raises a valid point. you fill it from the top, you pour it from the top, there is really no reason that the cereal at the bottom would ever find its way to the top unless you made a point to shake it up real good when it was about half full.

The other solution would be to get one of those hopper things like you see in hotels where you put your bowl under the hopper and then turn the little dial/knob and the cereal falls out the bottom. But "solution" is used generously because its just crumbs that fall out first. just horrible

Do you have a rule in your house where you can only eat half a box of cereal before you open a new box of cereal?

My house is essentially the wild west when it comes to rules about cereal. Some places would take you straight to jail if you tried doing 1/2 lucky charms, 1/2 raisin bran and 1/2 fruity pebbles all in the same bowl but my dude that's what we call Wednesday in casa de BAC

Allen wrenches. I have a bag thingy of like 600 different sizes of allen wrenches. I rarely need any of them, but when I do, I never seem to have the right sized one? It seems impossible that they build things and just randomly make up the size of the screw or whatever. Why make it so hard? Just make a standard screw or whatever!!!!

Invest in a metric and standard set with a clamp-in holder that shows the side. Throw out everything in the bag

Does anyone do the two bowl method to not get soggy cereal? You get a spoon full of dry Cereal and dunk it in the milk. I started doing this recently and wish I would have done this my entire life.

I feel like everything I buy has their own size one so I just throw it in the bag. You would think I have all the sizes by know but apparently my door knob has its own secret sized one.

I hope Sandstone is using proper LIFO accounting on his cereal bin.  IRS will take you down if you screw this up.

Sounds like he's a FIFO man, as he should be.

Are we talking accounting or inventory management?

1.5 bowls of cereal at a time.
