Sugar frosted flakes has zero saturated fat; Froot Loops 0.5…. Add almond milk and a little Hershey’s chocolate syrup and you have a great dessert for those watching their fat intake.
It’s all tasty poison!
Bon appétit!
Used to eat Froot Loops occasionally but what it was doing to the s*** color every time I ate it finally scared and stopped me from eating it at all anymore. Too disconcerting. I still like Frosted Flakes, though, and it has no strange side effects but also only eat that occasionally.
Most cereals are loaded with sugar. The same goes with “healthy” granola bars. They’re more like candy than anything else.
For example, one serving of Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes contains a whopping 21 grams of added sugar.
Ugh.
Of those 4 mentioned Rice Krispies might be the “healthiest” but lots sugar regardless.
It depends on what they actually say or how they say it. If may contain some unhealthy ingredients, some suspect ingredients, and some good ingredients. I don’t buy cereals or watch much commercial TV but as I recall they used to say things like “fortified with vitamins” and stuff like that. I took that to mean the food didn’t have many vitamins if they didn’t add that, and so that’s probably a good thing assuming artificial vitamins are beneficial. Bananas and avocados are healthy but if you eat too much you risk high potassium levels that could lead to arrhythmia.
Anyway I think we’re getting into troublesome area. It used to be caveat emptor (buyer beware) You could find something wrong or something linked to danger pour outcomes in almost anything. I’m not sure how to regulate this under consumer protections unless it’s a clear and provable case of fraud. If there is something healthy in a product that may also have something unhealthy how do you sell it. It’s like California prop 65 - they have to warn if something is suspected to be cancerous. But now anlmost everything has a prop 65 warning on it because of the plastic labels or ink used or glue found on the outer package. A tub of freshly cut pineapple may cause cancer, may cause suffocation or may be a choking hazard. ⚠️
Until I was able to get away from her I was raised by a working mom, so breakfast was Kellogg cereals.
Lunch was Baloney sandwiches and Carrots.
And some really weird dinners.
I ultimately spent time in the military
much better food!
I married a professional cook.
I have a wide experience of foods.
Y’all know what is important?
Not being hungry!
Be it corn flakes, sugar, and milk for breakfast
Baloney sandwiches for lunch and Chicken helper
for dinner,
as long as you are NOT! hungry, then we can debate
questionable healthly food choices.
Froot Loops! My mom used to give me that cereal because she said it’s got “fruit”😆I said “Mom. It’s spelled Froot for a reason.
I have been on a low-carb diet, and have been getting cravings for Cocoa Puffs, but would settle for Cocoa Krispies or Cocoa Pebbles.
The sugar content of most cereals is one reason I stick to oatmeal. I usually add a poached egg with warm milk, artificial brown sugar, butter, salt and pepper. Yummy!
Did anyone honestly think that Ricce Crispies are healthy????
