    Yuk !

    "Since the March 2004 publication by the UK Consumers' Association of a list of "cereal offenders", the industry has been under pressure to reduce quantities of sugar in its products. Kellogg’s Frosties ranked in the worst 15 breakfast cereals for sugar and salt.

    In a Health Select Committee report on obesity earlier this year, MPs singled out the role of sweetened breakfast cereals in diet-related diseases"

    Do you know, I was going to say something similar! I got some Frosties not so long ago, used to be a favourite of mine.. But, along with Crunchy Nut Cornflakes, I find them unbearable sweet to the point that I can't eat them. I have a sweet tooth so this suprises me.

    No way would I feed them to a child.

    Cheap tho! :D

    Well, I have either frosties or sugar puffs for my breakfast but since they cut the sugar back I have to put sugar on them before I can eat them and it is costing me a fortune to buy sugar.

    So it is just a ploy to make you buy more sugar.

    At least you can buy 2 1kg bags from Asda for £1.50
