Cereal bars: Healthy image a myth - Which?
The image of cereal bars as a healthy snack is a "myth", according to a study by Which?
The consumer group found all but one of the 30 bars it analysed were high in sugar, with more than half containing over 30% sugar.
One bar, Nutri-Grain Elevenses, contained nearly four teaspoons - more than in a small can of cola and 20% of the recommended daily allowance.
Other snacks it analysed were found to be high in fat and saturated fat.

Might as well serve Cocoa Puffs, or Count Chocula!
My favorite breakfast isn't sweet. Oatmeal, Cream of Wheat, good ol' eggs n sausage w/ toast, bacon and scrambled.
Screw those candy bars.
Although I do like doughnuts and coffee.
