Scientists have finally settled the age-old breakfast breakfast breakfast debate.

Harry Aikines-Aryeetey , a former Olympian , uploaded a video of him pouring milk before adding cereal.

Professor Barry Smith , a professor of philosophy at the University of London , said cereal won't go soggy as quickly if it's added to a bowl of milk.

Professor Charles Charles Spence , an experimental psychologist at Oxford , said: ' Plip-Snap , that is what you get if you add the milk, rather than the ubiquitous "Snap" that has been sold over the boxes of breakfast cereal'.

Kellogg's has been serving up cereal at breakfast tables since 1906 .

Nestle - who produce Cheerios , Shreddies and Nesquik cereals - says there is 'no rule' when it comes to milk first or cereal first .

But if you're a fan of more crunch in your bowl, the milk first approach could be the way to go.
