    Aren't those chocolate cheerios great? I put crushed almonds on top of mine...increases the fiber and protein.

    Chocolate cheerios, never heard of it until now.
    Hate to burst bubbles, but they taste good because of sugar content.

    They have 9 grams of sugar per 3/4 cup serving.

    Multigrain cheerios have 6 grams of sugar per 1 cup serving
    which would be 4.5 grams of sugar per 3/4 cup serving.

    Normal cheerios have 1 gram of sugar per 1 cup serving.
    Which would be .75 grams of sugar per 3/4 cup serving.

    So Chocolate cheerios have:
    - TWICE the amount of sugar than multigrain cheerios
    - TWELVE times more sugar than regular Cheerios.

    To Compare, Chocolate cheerios have the same sugar content as Froot Loops.
    12grams of sugar per 1 cup.

    It's the choices we make.

    Yes, it is all about the choices we make, but for a snack I will take all the sugar because they are YUMMY !!! Besides, these are WAY better tasting than fruit loops; they're chocolate for petes sake !

    Yes, PB2 is powdered peanut butter. You can find it at some stores along with www.bellplantation.com. All you do is mix the powder with a little bit of water and waaa laaa, peanut butter. After eating the PB2 I tried Jiffy not too long ago and could not stand the taste of Jiffy.

    2 tablespoons has 52 calories compared to Jiffy at 190

    I take it you put this in there for me. ******* 1 Gram less sugar? Wow. *******

    Chocolate cheerios have 9 grams sugar for 3/4 cup serving (Serving size is 27grams)
    Total Raisin Bran have 19 Grams sugar for serving (Serving is 55 grams)

    Total Raisin Bran at least has natural sugar with the Raisin's.... :tongue:

    I won't respond back anymore, the only reason I wrote in this Topic, is alot of people on MFP, like to see good healthy foods when we are ALL trying to lose weight.

    I was informing people, about how much sugar is in that cereal and there's healthier cereals.

    I have found the Chocolate Cheerios in Walmart and Kroger, also seen a commercial for Giant Eagle.
