The cereal aisle can be daunting. There are so many choices -- from the obviously unhealthy (sugary junk) to the healthy (think high-fiber, zero taste) to the fake healthy (like granola.) Aren't there any cereals out there that are healthy and taste good? Sure there are, but you have to become a diet detective to find one.

The key is reading the labels. Look for the first ingredient on the list -- if it's not a whole grain, put the box back where it belongs. The ideal cereal will 3g or more of fiber, a reasonable amount of sugar (I pick cereals with 10g or less per serving.)

My cereal du jour is All Bran Guardian with Psyllium -- it's maple-flavoured and tastes like it's not good for you. What your favourite cereal?
