    In defense of cold cereal

    Excuse me, but I like the stuff. Not the extreme sugary ones, but I don't what I'd do at 5:13 AM when I have 7 minutes for breakfast if you took away my Frosted Mini-Wheats (some sugar, but very low in sodium).

    Sardines definitely aren't the answer....

    It is useful to point out how high in sodium some of the cereals are. Check out the amount in Grape-Nuts (I've not touched them since I read the label).
