Our 5 Favorite Clean Label, Lower Sugar Cereals

September 13, 2022 by Tara Dekovic

The cereal category has seen some serious changes with the growth of cleaner label and lower sugar trends.

We did some taste testing and found our top 5 favorite “healthier” cereals! We found that each brand utilizes ingredients such as starches, organic sweeteners, functional/low-calorie sweeteners and protein to create a satisfying, crunchy, and “like the real thing” end-product.
