About WHEAT CEREAL, SWEETENED PUFFED
Sugar leads, then wheat, then corn syrup and honey in Post's Sweetened Puffed Wheat. Zero fat, zero meaningful fiber to speak of, and very little protein. The puffed wheat texture makes for a cloud-light cereal that goes soggy fast in milk. Caramel color gives it a warm amber hue. The fortification adds B vitamins, iron, zinc, and vitamins A, C, D, and B12, which props up an otherwise thin nutritional profile. Eat it for the taste, not the nutrition.
