Why do cereal stay crunchy for relative longer when drenched in milk compared to regular cookies that just go soggy almost instantly

Got a bunch of cookies left over the other day, decided to crush them up and eat them as cereal. I always add milk first and cereal second, but they all went soggy after about 10 seconds.

It’s because cereals are designed to not get soggy, by being more baked, toasted or covered in a shell of sugar. Older fashioned cereals still get soggy pretty quickly, like frosted mini-wheats. Not getting soggy quickly has even been an advertisement, over the years, as a testament to cereal companies’ attentions to it.
