Abstract

The present invention is a uniquely shaped divided bowl that has two separated sections: 1) a cereal section, and 2) a milk and fruit section. These sections are approximately the same size. The consumer places the dry cereal into the cereal section and then places milk and fruit into the milk and fruit section. It should be understood that the consumer might chose to have only milk in the milk and fruit section. An important feature of the design of the milk and fruit section is a groove at its bottom surface into which the last of the milk and fruit goes so that the last bites can be consumed without titling the bowl.
