A leading food safety expert has branded Kellogg's Froot Loops
the worst breakfast cereal in the US - amid protests about
the ingredients in the product.

I really struggle to beleive that "Froot Loops" are anything but unhealthy.

Sure, YOU may be OK, but there are so, so, so many obese people now,
more than ever.  Obviously many people are eating a bad diet.  We
shouldn't therefore be surprised when we find that some commonly eaten
foods are not that good for you.
