About SWEETENED RICE CEREAL
Malt-O-Meal sweetened rice cereal in its basic form: rice, sugar, corn syrup, oil, and a short list of artificial colors and flavors. Carbohydrates account for nearly the entire macro profile, with no fiber and low protein. Blue 1, Red 40, Yellow 6, and Yellow 5 color the pieces. Standard fortification with B vitamins, vitamins A and D, iron, and zinc covers the nutritional gaps the base formula leaves. It's the store-brand version of sweetened rice puff cereals, functionally nearly identical to the more expensive national brands.
