They’d get far more bio-available nutrients from a tablespoon of cod liver oil than they will from breakfast cereal, but it’s a rare parent these days who can get a kid to swallow that.

Still, a cheese&mushroom omelet with bacon is nothing to sneeze at, health-wise. (Unless you still buy into that nonsense about fat and cholesterol.)

What about Grape Nuts?

Got so much fiber it practically flies out my butt the next day.

As a child I found it ludicrous to think folks would have a bowl of cereal AND a glass of milk at the same time, PLUS orange juice too.

Talk about forcing fluids.

As a child we were not allowed to eat sweetened cereal.

As an adult I do not even like it in my house.

So, what does my wife buy for our child the other day?

“Post Rainbow Sherbet Ice Cream Pebbles Cereal”.

http://www.theimpulsivebuy.com/wordpress/2015/07/01/review-post-rainbow-sherbet-ice-cream-pebbles-cereal/

Excerpt:

“The colors of the cereal spill out in a blinding parade, bursting with the luminescence of a Lite-Brite powered by nuclear fusion. The speckles trip my brain up just enough, so that, upon my first bite, they heighten the sensation of the taste, which brings forth memories of a 2-scoop sugar cone of sherbet.”

I did all those things AND I send away and received a Captn Crunch Treasure chest breakfast set. What I would do to have that again!

If they’re in that much of a hurry, maybe they could ask their partner to “peel them a grape”.

I remember those too! My parents used to buy them for treats on camping trips.
