Tribal People Try Frosted Flakes for the First Time
About this video
In this Tribal People Try video the tribe meet cereal for the first time. Most of them had never seen it before the camera started, so the first minute is questions — what is it, what's in it, how do you eat it — and then the plates go round.
What is cereal?
Breakfast cereal is processed grain — flakes, puffs, loops — eaten cold with milk. Lucky Charms, Froot Loops and Cinnamon Toast Crunch are the sugary American ones; cornflakes and oats are the plain end.
What to watch for
Cold milk poured over crunchy sugar first thing in the morning is the strangest breakfast idea the videos have introduced. The colours of Froot Loops get a laugh; the taste is judged as candy, not food.
The comparison they always make
Breakfast in the village is paratha, eggs, lassi or tea. Milk is drunk warm. Cereal is understood as something for children, and a treat at that.
