Gene Simmons reveals bizarre cereal habit
Gene Simmons has baffled social media after revealing he puts ice in his cereal.
The Israeli-American KISS star, 70, shared a picture on Twitter of himself wearing a dressing gown tucking into a bowl containing two different types of cereal (identified by one Twitter user as Frosted Mini Wheats with Oreo Os) topped with milk and two hefty cubes of ice.
“Anyone else put ice cubes in their cereal?,” he captioned the post to his 884,000 followers, which has since received almost 30,000 likes at time of writing.

It would seem the bulk of Simmons’ followers were not on board with his method, which is presumably done to keep the milk extra cold.

Some were concerned that the combination would leave Simmons with watery milk, while others pointed out that milk was refrigerated and therefore cold enough already.

Others suggested alternative milk-chilling methods for Simmons: freezing milk in ice cube trays instead, or chilling the bowl in the fridge.
Why not just freeze milk in an ice tray and use that so the milk won’t get watered down? I do this with coffee

Absolutely not. Try chilling your bowl if you want that milk ice cold.

Cue most of the internet wondering however else someone would consume cereal.
In other food news, last November, Jenner’s half sister Kim Kardashian shared her so-called hack for melting M&Ms in the microwave.
She heats them in the microwave for 30 seconds - a process she called her “secret of life”.
