      My mother used to give me cereal - all sorts of sugary stuff (that was legal here in the UK anyway). But my son had none of it, and now he's 28 he still doesn't eat anything other than oats or a sandwich.
      I stopped eating that junk sugar cereal when I left home. Similar to you, I eat oats, a few raisins, yoghurt instead of milk, blueberries, blackcurrants, a pinch each of chia seed, flax seeds, cocoa powder, bran, and some spices.
      I'm actually quite impressed these school kids are mostly unimpressed with these cereals. A bit disappointed that the responsible adult in the room rather enjoys them and would feed some of this stuff to his own kids.

    The difference between the US and UK food is that in the UK the companies have to prove that the food is safe before it can be marketed.
    In the US it's up to the authorities to prove that a food stuff is unsafe, and as you said Joel there's a certain tolerance for how bad it can be.
    But what you have to take into consideration is that money rules in the US.
    Feed people with unhealthy food and the hospitals make more money and therefore the government.

I try to have the very minimum of processed sugar if any on my cereals and rely on the fruit for sweetness -It's not so addictive.

      @@rebeccaa2433 If you’re worried about oats that are sprayed with artificial chemicals then eat organic oats - they’re a powerhouse of nutrition. So far as milk goes, I’ll quote Stephen Fry “Peanut butter isn’t butter, quince cheese isn’t cheese, cream of coconut isn’t cream .. try as the dairy farmers might, history and the nature of language development will decide”.
      As for myself, I’ve drank soya milk for 30 years now and my vegan daughter, now 26, went straight from the breast to soya milk. We love it - and it’s incredibly healthy. What we would never do is drink the lactation secretion of a large bovine mammal - firstly out of love and respect for the cows who produce milk for their young (as I did for mine) but also because it isn’t healthy (its the most common allergen).
      Of course, as a species, over the course of history, in times of need and desperation ’some’ groups of humans have developed a tolerance to cows milk (the enzyme to break down lactose) but still today 95% of Asians, 70% of black people, 50% of hispanic people and 70% of Native Americans are profoundly lactose intolerant. In caucasians that figure is 33%.
      Also, according to many doctors such as Pam Popper, women in particular suffer in westernise countries from having high oestrogen levels (and the associated health concerns) because of drinking cows milk.
      At any rate, whatever you prefer to call plant based milks, they are arguably much much much healthier than drinking the milk of another species - and my family including my 81 year old vegan parents have thrived on them.
      nutritionfacts.org is a non-bias scientific website where you can find data about all the milks if you’re interested. On that website it also talks about the latest evidence based research - which includes a population study of 100,000 men and women who drank milk. Researchers found significantly higher rates of bone and hip fractures and other serious health issues.
      Also Dr T. Colin Campbell (who wrote the China Study - the most comprehensive study of nutrition to date) and who went into medicine to prove the benefits of dairy (having grown up on a dairy farm) eventually ended up finding that casein (the main protein in cows milk) was the most relevant chemical carcinogen ever identified (in research he conducted in laboratories for over a quarter of a century).
      If you want to know more about that you can read the research or maybe watch Forks Over Knives.

    Well I'm English and I didn't even know we had fruit loops in the first place. As a child we had winter breakfasts and summer breakfasts. Mom would cook a huge pot or porridge with honey added. Then a boiled egg with soldiers. In the summer we would get cornflakes or rice krispies or fresh fruit and a slice of butter and toast. I was 21 before I had my first ever MacDonalds and never touched them since. Burger King is supreme in our house.

    There’s a couple of points that come to me, and the first is the erudition of these lads, when I was there age I was definitely a trog! The standard of education and teaching has obviously improved since the 1960’s. Secondly if these cereals are typical in the US no wonder the schools there concentrate more on sports than academic studies, you just have to get rid of all that excess energy from the sugar, I’m also really worried about the health of these US kids, especially from the carcinogens in the cereals. I have a hatred of very sweet [UK] things, I won’t bother finding out about US products. Me I like things like Oatabix virtually no sugar.

  • @frglee

    My favourite cereals at the moment are the various 'Fruit and Fibre' bran wheat flakes from various retailers, typically with raisins, hazelnuts, bits of dried banana and coconut. You don't need extra sugar, the raisons are naturally sweet, the wheat flakes have a bit of added sugar, as do the banana flakes. The Aldi one I have by me lists the other ingredients as salt, malt extract, added iron, vitamin E, niacin, vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6, B9 and B12, vitamin D, thiamin, Folic acid and riboflavin. No colourings as far as I can see. So they seem pretty good nutritionally and good for your general health. I quite like the taste and texture. The roughage is good for your digestive system too.

    We had "Fruit Loops" and " Cocoa Pops" and they were so sweet you could eat them out of the box. We mostly eat "weetbix" but you need to add a moderate amuont of sugar and milk. It's wheat and dietry fibre . England has Introduced a high sugar tax to avoid Type 2 diabetes. That would also apply to beer and many other products. How would they tax fructose, the sugar in fruit?

    On the whole we tend to use natural colouring derived from fruits and vegetables (e.g. Beetroot gives a vibrant magenta colour), especially, rather than chemical colourings and most cereals have little of no sugar so that each individual can add it to their own taste and not be physically programmed to need sweet foods which seems to be the case in the US as sugar is very addictive. I eat an unsweetened wholemeal wheat cereal and only put a tiny amount of sugar on it, perhaps a quarter of a teaspoonful sprinkled over the both large biscuits of Weetabix.

    It's extraordinary just how much sugar is planted in foods that absolutely don't need it. Even mayonnaise and many other salad dressings and breads, WHY on Earth when it is so unnecessary. I can only only assume it is a cynical attempt to encourage the raising of glucose levels, a heightened insulin response and the heightening of a subsequently fast hunger response afterwards. It's no wonder that people succumb to health issues with such daily extremes going on in their bodies. The sugar needs cutting or removing altogether in many of these foods. Either that or make your own, then you can cut it out altogether. You can then hit the profiteers of unhealth where it hurts, in their overbloated wallets.
