An article on Yahoo News explained that 11 different types of cereal carry as much sugar as a glazed doughnut. Holy cow. Kelloggs Honey Smacks are more than 50 percent sugar by weight and on a consumer report of 91 children ages 6 to 16 they poured themselves 50 to 65 percent more than the serving size.
I personally find most children annoying. I can't believe I ever was one, there are very few that I enjoy. They are hyper enough without the sugar, not to mention the obesity problem with kids in America. They do not need a pound of sugar in the morning in order to kick start their day.
My advice, feed your kids some not-so-sugary cereal such as Corn Flakes and sprinkle just a little (emphasis on little) sugar on top to sweeten it up for them. Avoid Honey Smacks and Fruit Loops at all costs.
