"eats only cheerios and milk..."

Back in the late 60's, there was a breakfast food scandal.

If was found back then that Cheerios had the nutritional value of cardboard.

That forced cereal makers to boost the food value and nutritional value of their products.

Yes, and some cereals were more than 75% sugar. I think Super Orange Crisp was 80% sugar.
