[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I send my child to school everyday with a healthy and balanced lunch that is cooked 80% of the time. She does not need a snack as she gets one afterschool. I do send her with a little dessert for lunch every now and then ( Those flower cookies or mini- sponge cakes from Trader Joe’s or cinnamon twists that I made for her. I am a teacher too so I know what you mean. I have 4 kids in my 2nd grade class who come to school every morning with chips, candy and a Coke. I am dead serious. I do not say anything to them because it is not my place to shame them but when they asked if my kids drink Coke the answer is no as I don’t allow soda in my house along with cereal. [/quote]

Yes, soda and breakfast cereal -- notoriously the same nutritional content.

Cereal is one of the biggest scams in the history of nutrition. It's nothing but sugar and simple carbs. Even if you buy one without added sugar, it's over-processed simple carbs that turn into glucose in your children's bloodstream super fast. Convenient? Yes. Good for them, especially if that's the entire breakfast? No. [/quote]
