About FROSTED WHOLE GRAIN OAT CEREAL
Frosted Cheerios from the original Cheerios brand leads with whole grain oats and oat bran, which is a better start than most sweetened cereals. From there, though, sugar appears second in the list, joined by corn starch and corn syrup. The fiber content is meaningful for a frosted cereal, and the extensive vitamin and mineral fortification covers most of the standard daily micronutrients. It sits somewhere between a genuinely decent breakfast cereal and a lightly disguised sugar delivery vehicle, depending on how much you pour.
