I'm not convinced that cereal as a product is bad. Sure things like Lucky Charms are clearly terrible for kids, but Cheerios or Honey Bunches of Oats? They are the best combination of cheap, easy, and quick that someone can get for breakfast. My biggest worry with an anti-cereal movement would be that people would just start skipping breakfast (even more than they do), leading them to consume MORE calories at lunch and dinner to make up for it.
- Yxven 11y agoLucky Charms has 110 calories per 3/4ths a cup. Honey Nut Cheerios has 110 calories per 3/4ths a cup. They both have 22g of carbs of which Lucky Charms has 10g of sugar while Cheerios has 9. Don't confuse branding with health. If your cereal doesn't taste like cardboard, it's probably bad for you.
- at-fates-hands 11y agoTry regular Cheerios: http://www.caloriecount.com/calories-general-mills-cheerios-i8013 http://www.caloriecount.com/calories-general-mills-cheerios-... 110 calories in 1 cup serving. 1.2 grams of sugar, 3 grams of fiber. I started eating these plain in the morning when I got to the office and after less than 10 months of eating it, my cholesterol dropped another 5 points. I already had healthy levels, and this dropped it even more.
