BEWARE OF FLAVORED OATMEAL

320. BEWARE OF FLAVORED OATMEAL Oatmeal is one of the most nutritious of cereals but unfortunately food manufacturers have managed to screw it up. Recognizing that most people have a sweet tooth, manufacturers have added all kinds of "flavorings" to regular oatmeal to make it more appealing. Unfortunately the word "flavored" is just
another term for "loaded with sugar and calories." Avoid "flavored" oatmeal or any other similarly advertised cereal. If you want flavor, add some chopped fruit, cinnamon or berries.
