    Maybe $8 for a box is too much?

        Also 90% of cereals are just carbs and sugar. They’re more of a junk-food than a breakfast.

    Breakfast has been touted as the most important meal but it’s treated like it’s dessert. It’s hollow, unfulfilling calories and even muesli or nut/berries doesn’t help because it’s more sugar on top of sugared carbs.

      Breakfast has been touted

      Advertised. It’s all been marketing.

    The price keeps getting higher, the box is getting smaller, and I need to pay almost twice as much to not directly give myself diabetes. Noty

    I’ve never liked cereal or milk. Savory breakfast is where it’s at.
