That's a very very broad definition. A proper müsli is miles away from a processed sugary junk food breakfast cereal (eg Froot Loops)
- hombre_fatal 4y agoAgreed. A cup of oats has everything from fiber to polyphenols to 11g protein to a respectable amount of minerals (zinc, manganese, copper, magnesium, selenium). A cup of Frosted Flakes has almost no fiber and really nothing except whatever they fortified it with.
- fsckboy 4y agoaccording to what I just read on wikipedia, the original meusli recipe from Dr. Bircher has 1 tablespoon oats.
- hombre_fatal 4y agoMy comment refers to "oats" in the quotation, something that can obviously replace sugary boxed cereals. But, on your topic, modern muesli is more like an unroasted granola mix these days. Mostly grains like oats and nuts. The original recipe even prescribes the pit and core of an apple.
