I recently read about General Mills making some changes in their cereal sugar content.
Finally.
The updated products will begin to roll out in the next year apparently. There was no time line provided for reaching their goal for reducing the sugar content in 10 of its cereals.

Despite the changes, be careful, you should still read those food labels. A few tips to keep in mind.
-Lower sugar is nice; but your cereal should also be a good source of fiber as well.
-A good source of fiber should have at least 3 grams of fiber.
-Look at the serving size. The average cereal bowl holds approximately 1 1/2 - 2 cups.
-4 grams of sugar equals approximately 1 teaspoon. Keep this in mind when choosing your cereal.
What is your favorite breakfast cereal? How many grams of sugar and fiber does it have?
