Should have been 8 g of protein, not 9. That gives 183 calories. However, how do you know that is where the error is? :: :: My suggestion to you Roger, is not to buy boxed cereals in the first :: place. They are not the healthy food that you were made to believe. :: And how do you know that, Ig? Is the tomato that you buy at the store the healthy food that you believe it to be? The ingredient list on this product is very simple. Sure, I could be all those ingredients at the health food store, but it still takes time to mix them up, store them, etc. |
