Cereals
Since the inception of ready-to-eat cereals
over 100 years ago, Americans have enjoyed bowls of cereal for both breakfast
and snacks. Today’s super-market shelf
staples are a far cry from the wheat flakes and corn puffs of the past, and
while some provide fiber, vitamins and minerals, others are ticking sugar bombs
ready to wreck havoc on your healthy eating goals. Navigating the choices can
be difficult, and without careful consideration, your cereal bowl might
resemble a sugar-laden chocolate dessert more than a nutritious meal! Bon’App is here to help you choose the
healthiest option, whether you prefer your cereal plain, slightly sweet, or
extra-crunchy.
General Mills Cheerios
Cheerios is an iconic breakfast food that
endures as the most popular cereal brand in America. Original, unsweetened
Cheerios are a great option, as they contain no added sugar. And with 4 grams
of Fiber and just 100 Calories per cup, who can say no? Not only that, like
many cereals, Cheerios are fortified with important nutrients including
calcium, iron, and vitamin D. Avoid opting for other General Mills sweetened varieties,
such as Honey Nut, which contain 253 Calories and 23 grams of Sugar for the
same 1-cup serving. Instead, if you’re looking
to add a touch of sweetness to your bowl, add a handful of blueberries or
sliced banana. Combined with low-fat milk, this breakfast will surely keep you
satisfied throughout the morning.

Kashi Cinnamon Harvest Cereal
If you can’t resist a little sweetness to
start the day, that’s ok too. As long as the sugar-containing cereal also
provides important nutrients, you’ll start the day off right. To cut back on
sugar, it’s wise to mix half a serving of unsweetened cereal with half a
serving of your favorite sweetened variety.
Containing 180 Calories and only 9 grams of sugar per serving, Bon’App
recommends Kashi Cinnamon Harvest Cereal, which has just the right amount of
natural sweetness, and a hint of spicy cinnamon. The fiber-filled biscuits are also
made with whole grains, and contain protein, vitamins and minerals, which
balance out the sugar content.

Kelloggs’s Special K Protein Plus
Protein packs an important dietary punch – it
helps build and repair muscle and satisfy hunger! With a delightfully crispy
crunch and lightly sweetened flakes, Kellogg’s Protein Plus cereal provides an
excellent breakfast option that will surely keep you powering through the
morning. With just 120 Calories per ¾ cup serving and 10 grams of Protein, this
cereal will help you achieve your healthy eating goals. Enjoy with low-fat milk or yogurt for
breakfast, or as a cereal snack bag for
your mid-afternoon snack.

No matter which cereal variety you prefer,
remember that a serving is about the size of your fist. And just because your
bowl can hold 4 cups, doesn’t mean it should! If you’re unsure of which
cereal option is right for you, just ask Bon’App! “What’s in my food?”
