Frosted Flakes are high in sugar, but less so compared to other popular cereals. That's... Pretty much the reason. "We're the healthiest of the worst! That makes us grrrrr-reat!"

It's like taking Corn Flakes and just pouring on sugar, which is better than your entire cereal being... sugar chunks.

Hey, they eat Wheaties!

By the way, notice Wheaties cost like, $6 fucking dollars for a small box, whereas you can get a Family size Lucky Charms for $3.

And people wonder why there is an obesity problem.

Ugh, tell me about it. God forbid healthful food was as cheap and readily available as the neverending empty calories that's sold on every goddamn corner in this country

In fairness, I used to train with an Olympian who was crazy for McDonalds breakfast.

The key issue there is that Americans dont seem to realise that sweets and cereal are not the same thing.

According mostly to their own marketing:

Wheaties is the cereal for athletes
Frosted Flakes the cereal for active kids
Special K is the weight loss cereal
Grape Nuts is for outdoorsy types
Kix is the cereal your parents buy if they hate you

No, but being Olympians they'd know its fine in moderation. Like they're not eating McD's all day every day, but a sausage n'egger every now and then is fine paired with their exercise and balanced diet. Like a cheat meal or whatever.

In the case of processed sugar specifically, if you really do intense physical training it will burn it off, while what your body doesn't burn off becomes fat.

The main risk to high sugar foods is the spiking of glucose levels in your blood, which is bad but the intense physical activity regulates it somewhat.

Because Frosted Flakes are a shit cereal. If you can't market based on taste you have two options: make a better product (they refuse for some reason) or find some other silly nonsense to make people buy it. Hence the fitness angle.

Parents tell their kids all the time that they have to eat shit that they think tastes bad (broccoli, mushrooms, whatever) under the guise that what you're sacrificing in taste you're making up to in health. So the logic is already in the kids brains and now it's easy to say "eat our bland crap that becomes mush .04 femtoseconds after it touches milk and you can be like this jacked tiger jock "

This is absolutely the reality of the situation.

Family size of Lucky Charms in my store today was $5.49. Better than 6, but not the deal you were thinking
