In your country, what do you call the somewhat thicker milk that you eat, typically with cereal, from a bowl?

Not sure what you mean by that. Maybe in your country, you use a different type of milk for cereal.

Here in America (including my household), we typically just use the usual pasteurized milk from the grocery store that we use for everything else (drinking, baking, etc.) and put it into our cereal. So, it's just "milk."

Huh! Interesting. So the thicker variety isn’t even on the market?

Nope. At least, not that I'm aware of. Although sometimes I've put a little bit of vanilla bean coffee creamer along with the milk in my Cheerios before. It's actually REALLY good. Basically, just two-thirds of milk and another third of coffee creamer.

Turns out it’s mostly a Swedish thing! I never knew!

Filmjölk, unique to Sweden, is a yogurt-like product that you can drink, it has a mild flavor and is incredibly easy to prepare. Its health benefits are similar to yogurt, but there are some pleasantly surprising differences.

Oh, you've just made me think. Maybe this thing is similar to kefir. I didn't understand what @Agonum was talking about but now I'm sort of getting it. Kefir is not commonly used in the UK, though. It's still very niche and you wouldn't use it on cereal. On muesli, maybe on porridge but not cereal.

I love kefir 😍 but I don't mix it with anything except sugar))))
 
🤔🤔🤔🤔 We may have a different kefir. It's very different from yogurt, it has a strong fermented milk flavor, it's liquid, and it's drinkable.
Kefir is also a fermented milk product, but its origin is unique in its own way. Kefir is the result of two types of fermentation at once - fermentation and alcoholic fermentation. Lactobacillus bacteria are responsible for the former, while the latter is the so-called "kefir grain" - special fungal cultures that resemble boiled rice in appearance.
