in Kellogg's Rice Krispies and Corn Flakes
I understand there is an HFCS free Corn Flakes available at some HFS but I have never purchased it.

That might just mean there aren't many ingredients. Like, it could be 98% the first two ingredients, and then just a little sugar. Better, and more accurate, to go by grams per serving.

I eat puffed amaranth with unsweetened almond milk and lots of berries (frozen blueberries or strawberries). The berries give it the flavor so I don't miss the sugar too much (there's no sugar in the cereal or milk).
You could do this with any puffed cereal, puffed rice, millet, corn etc. You can find them at health food stores and they don't have added sugars.

The real problem is defining what a 'sugary cereal' is. For me any cereal that contains sugar or HFCS is a 'sugary cereal' even if it contains 2 gr/serving.

Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch is my cereal of choice for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or even as a snack! I eat it with Vanilla Soy Milk (8th Continent).

There are organic rice krispies and corn flakes made by Kellogg's but I believe they are not around much anymore. I am not sure if they didn't sell well or what the reason was but now a person has to buy actual organic crispy rice which costs more.

The person who asked the question and is looking for advice is the person who decides what 'sugary' means to her. I suppose she means lower in sugar than a cereal like captain crunch or pebbles for instance.
Quaker and General Mills products have less instances of HFCS than Post and Kellogg's.

Basically, I mean not Cap'n Crunch, Froot Loops, Lucky Charms...that sort of thing. Non-frosted cereals.

I have been looking for Organic rice crispies at 2 local big chain stores. I have yet to find them. So I guess they have discontinued them?? So far I have been eating the sugar cerals apple jacks and honey combs. But they are way to addictive and to sugary. So I might try life ceral this week which was suggested.

I can't open the supervalu file at home to find out what the status of organic kellogg's products are, but I do know that several months ago a Kellogg's rep came to our store and discontinued the two organic cereals and put something else in their place. I bought a few boxes of the marked down rice krispies and have not seen them since. I suspect Kellogg's of getting kickbacks from HFCS manufacturers.

I have found that the generic store brand corn flakes don't have HFCS (I shop at King Soopers/Kroger); I've been on a corn flakes kick lately!!
