You don’t have to be a saint if you like a bit more sugar (you can always bulk up fibre later in the day). But a way to check if a cereal is healthy is to check the nutrition box (by 100g). It should have over 5g of fibre and less than 5 of sugar (carbs section).
Also read how to make a proper bowl of porridge.
The best-selling brand of cornflakes has just 3g of fibre. You’d be better off eating an apple. The same brand’s cocoa pops up the sugar to 17g and their most sugary cereal (advertised by a tiger) is a whopping 37g sugar. No wonder children’s teeth are rotting.
Recycle packaging at supermarket bag bins, if your council does not recycle. Keep these cereals away from young children and pets due to nuts, dried fruits, chocolate etc. Read more on food safety for people and pets.
