SnackSwapperThe honest verdict
Is Frosted Flakes Actually Healthy?
Frosted Flakes are corn flakes wearing a sugar coat: 13g of sugar and just 1g each of protein and fiber per bowl, before the usual second pour. That profile burns off fast and leaves you hungry by mid-morning. The frosted crunch is easy to keep while fixing the protein problem underneath it.
