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.

It’s interesting to know, that decades ago, some prominent cereals had “sugar” in the title, as if it was positive to have sugar in the cereal.

Off the top of my head, there were Sugar Crisp, Sugar Frosted Flakes, Sugar Pops, and Sugar Smacks.

With concerns about sugar, Sugar Crisp was renamed Golden Crisp, Sugar Frosted Flakes became just Frosted Flakes, Sugar Pops became Corn Pops, and Sugar Smacks became Honey Smacks.

But what I don’t know, is if the sugar content of these cereals was reduced, or if they just renamed the cereals, to not emphasize the sugar content.

Michelle Obama can’t believe the luck she’s having. She’s getting exactly what she wants.

Sugar addiction is endemic these days. I witnessed a grown male human put 7 sugar packets and 5 creamers in a 10 oz cup of coffee.

I’ll stick with black coffee and rare steaks thank you
