About CEREAL, LIGHTLY SWEETENED
Whole grain wheat first, sugar second, and then a short list of flavor and color additives including Red 40 and Blue 1. Malt-O-Meal's lightly sweetened cereal in this line is nutritionally similar to the plain version: high fiber, solid protein for a grain cereal, and very low fat. The color additives are the main thing that separates this variety from the unflavored option. It fits well in a diet that wants whole grain carbohydrates with moderate sweetness.
