Occasionally, I will post reviews of food products I feel fit into a healthy diet. It can be complicated and time consuming to sift through all the products on shelves to find healthier products. Drawing attention to healthier options will help make the task of changing eating habits that much easier.A new cereal has hit grocery store shelves: Fiber One Honey Clusters. This new cereal is a high fiber breakfast that claims to contain 51 percent of your daily fiber needs. It is a cereal of wheat flakes with clusters of crispy honey flavored pieces, and has 13g of fiber and 160 calories per serving (serving size 1 cup). With 280mg of sodium and 1.5 g of total fat, Honey Clusters is an attractive choice for a healthy breakfast. This is also a good choice if you have been eating low fiber sugary cereal but need a change. Add some fruit, such as a banana or blueberries, and you will have the ultimate healthy breakfast. There are a few criticisms I have of Honey Clusters. For all the fiber it contains, it does taste very sugary. Also, the ingredients list has high fructose corn syrup as an ingredient. The sugar keeps the cereal from tasting like bitter cardboard—a main complaint of other high fiber cereals but we need to keep our intake of sugar down. Overall, Fiber One honey clusters is recommended for a person interested in adding fiber to their diet just stay within the serving size to keep your sugar intake at a minimum.
