tl;dr - No
“You mentioned that three of the top six ingredients in Honey Nut Cheerios are sugar, brown sugar and honey,” Mike Siemienas, a spokesman for the company, wrote in a statement. “What you didn’t mention is that the number one ingredient is oats. To be so singularly focused on one ingredient — sugar — is irresponsible and doesn’t help consumers look at the total nutrition offered.”
This PR flack could work for the Government with indignation skills like this!
- sametmax 9y agoGod damn it Bob ! You only focused on the venom in the shot I gave you. But you didn't consider that the seringe contained mainly water. You are really trying make me look bad.
- onion2k 9y agoNot to be an apologist for the sugary cereals industry, but I don't think ingredients scale proportionately to their position in the list. A food could be 99.99% oats and still have sugar in the next three positions in it's ingredients list. The list doesn't have enough information for you to make an informed decision.
- mathattack 9y agoSure. Everything in the article (and details on the label) suggests otherwise.
