Every time I go to the grocery store and see all of the sugary breakfast cereal laid out, it reminds me of a candy aisle. I keep expecting a lot of it to actually become illegal and disappear because of the very excessive amount of sugar in most of them and the fact that they are marketed to kids as a daily staple.
Don't get me wrong, I love Corn-Pops and stuff, but I think it should be considered a dessert item for a weekend or something rather than something you feed to your kids every day.
There are plenty of cereals that are sweetened but are not going completely overboard like the old-fashioned ones, and I think that should be okay for breakfast.
There should be a cut-off on the proportional amount of sugar versus other ingredients.

- osigurdson 4y agoThat’s awesome. Sometimes we very analytical people need to realize that life > lifespan.
- irrational 4y agoI don’t think it will dramatically affect my lifespan. My doctor says I have the body of a 35 year old and my family almost always lives well into their 100s.
