    It is quite high in sugar.

    I wouldn't consider it the best breakfast choice (not the worst either) - there are cereals on the market with no added salt or sugar. I love puffed oats - they have literally nothing added. I usually have them with non-dairy milk and fruit.

    I don't think you are going to find many boxed cereals that are "healthy" (which is a very subjective term anyway).

    The important things to consider are:

    1. Do you like them?
    2. Do they fit in your calorie goal?

    If you can answer yes to both, then have the Special K.

    I frequently eat Special K plus protein because I'm too lazy to cook some eggs in the morning and I want my protein...lol. It's tasty and a good choice with some skim milk and berries. Yum.

    The Vanilla Almond and the Oats and Honey I think it is, are my favorites.

    IMO, it's processed crap and I wouldn't call it anything other than junk. Not in my body thank you very much. :P
