Kashi - 7 grain flakes is good and low sugar. It taste like a frosty flakes minus the frosty LOL0

I eat original shredded wheat (the large biscuits) with a little sugar substitute.
When choosing a cereal, I try to follow the old rule: Sugar can't be one of the first three ingredients.0 -
Bite size Frosted Mini Wheats are the best.0

I make my own, this is the recipe I use as well as the reason I make my own (though I was planning to make my own before that)
While i'm baking it I add honey to sweeten it up0 -

well said! You need something with sugar down later in the list. all of the cereals you listed are high in sugar (Mini Wheats too!). Kashi is usually good, but you still have to be carefull of the sugar in those as well. Plain cereals are better....like corn flakes. You can add fruit to give them more flavor.0 -
shredded wheat0

Uncle Sam original. Perfect with fruit and plain Greek yogurt.
My other fave is natures path pumpkin flax granola.0 -

I live for Rice Chex with almond milk...maybe a banana...*sigh*
I'd also strongly suggest rolled oats/steel cut oats.0 -
Special K (original) shouldn't be too bad, same with (regular) Cheerios. Raisin Bran is super high in sugar (shocked me).
Anyway, I look for cereal with protien & fiber too. Kashi cereals are excellent.0 -
I don't really pay attention to sugar, but my favorite cereals are Fiber One and Special K Protein Plus. Good stuff!!0

I second the steel cut oats. Though on days they didn't get made...Kashi.0 -

i will stick to cheerios and special k, i also have quaker oatmeal oncein a while0 -
Kashi Go Lean High Protein & Fiber. I looooove it!! 1 cup = 140 calories and it fills me up.0

What about switching to oatmeal?0
