FatHeadDog is many things, but not a squirrel. But that’s what some people think when I pull out a box of dry cereal and start munching. On a summer vacation with friends, I caught a few ribbings for my unusual morning, lunch and dinner snack but thanks to the nice folks at MyBlogSpark, I now have validation for my nibble habit. Did you know that ready-to-eat cereal eaters consume less fat, less cholesterol and more fiber than non-cereal eaters? According to General Mills, cereals also deliver important vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrients, making cereal a top source of key nutrients in adult’s and children’s diets.
Earlier this month, General Mills announced efforts to further reduce sugar in cereals advertised to kids under 12 to single digit grams of sugar per serving. The company has already been reducing sugar in cereals while increasing key nutrients, such as calcium and vitamin D, and providing whole grain. To kickoff General Mill’s new efforts, they’re offering $1off coupons for four of their most popular cereals, including Trix, Cocoa Puffs, Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Lucky Charms. So enjoy the $1off coupons and try General Mill’s new reduced sugar cereals while FatHeadDog gets back to munching. Free coupon, information, and giveaway have all been provided by General Mills through MyBlogSpark.
