For cereal, sugar and serving size are usually the fastest first checks. Fiber and ingredient style can help separate everyday breakfast options from sweeter treat-style cereals.

Before buying

  • Check whether the listed serving size matches a realistic bowl.
  • Compare sweetened cereals with other sweetened cereals before judging them against plain grains.
  • Review allergens and cross-contact statements for cereals with nuts, wheat, soy, or dairy ingredients.
