About SWEETENED RICE CEREAL
Malt-O-Meal's sweetened rice cereal runs on milled rice and a combination of sugar and corn syrup, with canola or sunflower oil for texture. The carbohydrate load is heavy and there's no meaningful fiber. Protein is minimal. Four artificial dyes give it its color. Fortification with B vitamins, vitamin A, vitamin D, iron, and zinc adds nutritional coverage that the core ingredients don't provide on their own. It's a budget-friendly cereal aimed at the same shelf as name-brand sweetened rice puffs.
