ONLY for those of you living in Germany/Austria who know Müller's "Joghurt mit der Ecke", which requires you to mix the cereals into the yoghurt.
Any ideas on phrasing "jemand kippt die Ecke um" in a similarly concise way?
I'm NOT looking for the dictionary meaning of "umkippen".
Thanks.

Comment: "I didn't mean to discourage you, Cilian. I have nothing against dictionaries, some of my best friends are dictionaries ;-), but on such minor matters dictionaries (and non-natives like me) tend to slip up. Both flip and fold sound good, I'll probably need both.
Thanks to Sueg and pschmitt as well."
