About FROSTED LIGHTLY SWEETENED WHOLE GRAIN WHEAT CEREAL
Malt-O-Meal Frosted Lightly Sweetened Whole Grain Wheat Cereal builds on a solid whole grain wheat foundation, with sugar kept as a secondary ingredient. Gelatin gives the frosting its light coating, and a B-vitamin and mineral blend is added in. Fiber is genuinely high compared to most sweetened cereals, which makes sense given the wheat bran naturally present in whole grain wheat. It's positioned well between a straight bran cereal and a fully sugared kids' option.
