American breakfast cereal is probably a good example of the problem. In the UK, don't you have to buy stuff like Cinnamon Toast Crunch from speciality outlets? I was under the impression much of what passes for breakfast in the US is considered confectionary across the way.
- Jabbles 4y agoCinnamon Toast Crunch is 30% sugar: https://www.cinnamontoastcrunch.com/products/cinnamon-toast-crunch https://www.cinnamontoastcrunch.com/products/cinnamon-toast-... But something like Frosties, a popular cereal in the UK, is 37%: https://www.kelloggs.co.uk/en_GB/products/frosties.html https://www.kelloggs.co.uk/en_GB/products/frosties.html So although breakfast in general might be an example, that particular cereal doesn't seem too different.
- Symbiote 4y agoI don't know if it makes much difference, but observe that the British cereal has a red mark for high sugar content on the box. It will be shelved near other cereals with green marks. The American one has a similar label, except it's not coloured. My parents bought Frosties as a very rare treat. My American cousins seemed to always have sugary cereals.
