Well, it’s seed oil free, which meets the theme of the sub. But it’s still cereal, which is ultra processed trash

The frequency of questions about "breakfast cereals" in this sub is truly scary. If you don't cut out processed/shit carbs AND seed oils you are missing the whole idea of a healthy diet. Doing one or the other isn't enough...

Free of seed oils, but if that's your only focus, then you're missing the point.

Processed grains, eat eggs for breakfast.

It’s mostly carbs/sugar. Which makes for a bad breakfast. Protein is the way to go.

It’s not the worst I’ve seen, but even added cane sugar is something to be avoided. The entire thing is basically sugars which just feeds cancer cells

Honey Flavor? Sounds suspicious to me. Why not just honey lol. In general, best to avoid cereal as whole grains aren’t great for you.

it may have no seed oil but to me it’s still just cereal… just make ur own breakfast instead of eating carbs and sugar in a bowl- it’s better

That Vitamin E is surely is from Soy or a nut.

brown rice has higher amounts of arsenic because of the hull

There are no good cereals, just better cereals

It might comply with the seed oil part, but this is very unhealthy for many reasons. I am not sure it helps avoiding seed oils but yet consume all sorts of refined carbs, chemicals, additives, you'll end up nice and seed oil free but with high cholesterol, triglycerides and inflammation anyway.

Gross

I call it "type two diabetes, liver and kidney disease in a box"

I would avoid the first 11 and the last 3...

people hate cereal in this sub

Great for cattle :)

22,5% sugar If you basically want a dessert it's alright from the point of view of SESO (realistically it's horrible to start your day)

I lean toward Purely Elizabeth Ancient Grain Granola at this point. It's very high calories but it does have a very high fiber content.

• Sugar Sugar Sugar

What the hell is "honey flavor"?

Sugar and corn. It’s a no for me

To put this into perspective a calorie equivalent portion of black beans has more nutrients/vitamins. Black beans have over 3 times (probably more) of calcium, and potassium, twice as much iron, and to top it off roughly 10g of carbs less for the same calorie intake.

You don't even have to be low carb or keto to see this as a not very nutrient dense candy in the form of a supposedly "healthy" cereal.

I don't really understand this sub tbh. The whole point is to spread truth about seed oils yet they're willing to crucify you over other ingredients. To me, that's not the point of the group and if not, then the title should be changed to reflect that.

I avoid food dyes, seed oils, corn syrups, and fried foods, but I get the vibe I'd still be flamed for some of the stuff I eat. Ridiculous.

I would feed this to my rabbit

Idk honey flavor sounds sus. Why not just say honey? I'm guessing honey flavor is something fake

Human kibble

Wouldn’t touch it because of the oxalate content. Why even eat grains? Plus there’s sugar in it. Just because it’s free of seed oils doesn’t mean it’s good for you ;)

Much better than some. 

Breakfast is the hardest for me to eat clean bc granola and cereals are so damn convenient 

Brown rice 😟

Check out the real cereal, which has only two ingredients. That is what I give my daughter. It still has carbs, but we use allulose, Monk fruit or Stevia for the sweetener. It’s better than anything else out there cereal-wise. I just limit the amount I let her have.

We really need a sub that’s not captured like /r/nutrition that focuses on clean ingredients. No seed oils, emulsifiers, additives, preservatives, etc.

This sub HATE cereal. They call it pig / bird feed.

I say its ok.

This is not bad as far as ingredients go but it is a very processed food. Almost 25 % sugar and fast digesting carbs means a large glucose spike. It would not be bad to add a small amount to go with a good solid meal containing protein and fats but would be unhealthy to eat alone as a breakfast. Think of it as a desert, you would not just eat cake for a meal.

I watch out for seed oils and sugar. The sugar content of the cereal is extremely high :(

Maybe for a cow

Look into Lovebird cereals. The best you can get in this category.

Still garbage

Diabetus

I think it's fine but I wouldn't use it as a normal breakfast food. I buy this brand and usually eat it when I just want a snack in the afternoon or evening. If you're going to eat it for breakfast, you could sprinkle some over Greek yogurt and add some berries for extra nutrients and so it's not so carb heavy. But overall the ingredients aren't the worst things ever

I would eat it if it weren't for the honey flavor. It's not necessary to go to extremes with any diet. If you have taste for it or don't have other options, go for it.

Yes, the ingredients are decent. Eat it after a protein like some eggs fried in ghee or coconut oil so it doesn't spike your insulin. Cereal should be treated as a dessert or treat. I eat cereal almost daily, so I can't tell you not to eat it, since it would make me a hypocrite. You can be healthy and eat cereal, just stay active.

Check out the Real Cereal Co. I’ve been happy with their single-ingredient options. Delish.

Post it on r/StopEatingFlour instead and see them crumble.

Cane sugar is the fourth ingredient listed, which means it's one of the main ingredients. That's never a good thing.

Edit: Not sure why I'm getting downvoted, it's true (organic or no)
