    I'm the same Inanna. I refuse to allow my kids to go to school hyped up on sugar. i dn't care how 'uncool' I am. I do buy a small pack of Coco Pops as a treat on school holidays though.
    I was never allowed coco pops or fruit loops as a kid - in fact, only recently (i'm 33) did I taste a dry cocopop - didn't like it either. I was allowed to have nutrigrain, rice bubbles or cornflakes though, all options I will not give to my children (i don't think!)

    Doubt my kids will ever get fruit loops while in my house. DD2 is allergic to some food colourings...no thanks!

    Fruity Bix. Do you know that the wild berry fruity bix have as much sugar as Coco Pops??? Yep, its true, as I shocking found out while munching on a bowl of them! But SHHHHHH don't tell Shel. I'm always on at her about my cereal choioces being healthy and her's being unhealthy!!!!! Oh dear! LMAO!

    Fruit loops and roll ups are a huge bug bear of mine. GRRRRR, neither of them resemble ANY type of fruit I know of. Actually, neither even TASTE like a fruit.
