Here’s what they found<\/b><\/span>
… and this is just crazy, I know, but they actually found that, if you choose NOT to serve your children cereal that is absolutely saturated in sugar and food dye … well they get less calories. <\/span>

<\/span>
Can you imagine? <\/span>Can you, like, believe it? I told you. It’s crazy, and SO very hard to believe. <\/span>But these researchers also found that kids enjoyed the other cereal just as well, and were MORE likely to add fruit to their bowls. <\/span>

<\/span>
You know what?<\/b> <\/span>
You’re kids ARE going to ask for the box with the cool bandanna’d Tiger, the psychedelic rabbit, and the Sugar-Smakin’ Frog … because they’d like to have Halloween all year round. <\/span>

<\/span>
That doesn’t mean you have to give it to them. <\/span>

<\/span>
Of course they will ask for it; they’re children<\/i>. But don’t have to say yes to your children … you really can give them foods that won’t harm them; you’re the adult. <\/i><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
