Hi - Yves should be good, but make sure the fat content is under 20-25% of total calories. You could have the Altoids whenever - if you have too much peppermint you'll know it because you'll get heartburn. If you don't have any problems then just have as much mint as you like.

Stir the Citrucel very vigorously - that'll help prevent the clumps. Make sure you're adding enough water, too.

I'm not sure if you could make krispy treats without any oil at all - I've never tried that. You could use just a tablespoon or so of the canola oil. You're getting soluble fiber from the rice cereal so that little bit of oil for the whole recipe should be okay. You do need to incorporate healthy fats into your diet, even in tiny amounts.

You'll have to read the marshmallow ingredients. If they have high fructose corn syrup and you're sensitive to fructose, then it's best to avoid them.
