This morning for breakfast I had toast smothered with Hartley's Strawberry Jam... lovely.

Re: Frosted Shreddies
A have a genuine question for y'all (see, these quaint Texan modes of speech do have their uses!):
How in hell's name do you find time to eat breakfast?
Seriously, in between trying to down a pint of black coffee, shower, shave, brush my teeth and still get to work on time...
Is that why all these Yanks are eating in their cars on the way to work?

If I eat anything here it tends to be All Bran.
I can deffo taste the extra sugar, but as I used to put sugar on it at home I have convinced myself that it evens out.

theres this stuff i sometimes have called Kashi
loads of fibre, protein etc and is low fat
unfortunately the downside is that its tastes 'worse than ass' as a friend charmingly put it.
low cal tip for cereal - put splenda on it. tastes just like sugar

The best thing you can do for your body is stick to the least prosessed food you can; and it may take a while to adapt to the taste of less sugar, but after a while its ok.... I have to admit, i'm no angel, but I think for health reasons it's better to cut back than to substitute with this kind of thing. The advantage of 'natural' products is that they've been eaten for 100's of years, and we know the effects they have- better the devil you know.
just a thought!!
p.s. beer has been around for ages, so it's ok, right!!!
