I got tired of pouring out a bowl of cereal and opening the refrigerator only to find that someone had used the last of the milk, so I started keeping a container of Almond Breeze in the pantry. The vanilla flavor I think is great with cereal, coffee, and oatmeal. I also keep the unflavored variety on hand for cooking and baking, it has been a lifesaver for situations where I suddenly realize I don't have enough milk for a recipe in progress.
