ABSTRACT:
A food serving device and method for keeping different food items separated prior to their consumption. The device harnesses gravitational flow to allow desirable or undesirable liquids to flow to a receiving compartment (20). In a preferred embodiment, a cereal bowl (10) maintains the crispness of cereal by keeping the cereal in a separate compartment (12) away from milk or other liquid which is kept in liquid reservoir compartment (26). Liquid from reservoir compartment (26) gravitates through channel (38) to the receiving compartment (20). Cereal is pulled toward the user from the cereal compartment (12) and falls into the awaiting liquid in the receiving compartment (20). Additionally, the cereal in the receiving compartment (20) is geographically confined to limit its dispersement so a spoon can be used to easily scoop out a portion of the cereal and the liquid.
