It's time for a Quiz!
Per Serving, match the nutritional information with the item. All baked items are average size and made with white flour.
DISCLAIMER: I am fully aware oatmeal or toast and eggs are not nutritionally equal to M&M's. However, the majority of these items are equivalent to eating, processed white sugar, enriched white flour plus many chemicals & preservatives, with possibly a few chunks of fruit thrown in. I am not suggesting you eat Apple Pie for breakfast because nutritionally it is similar to a commonly eaten breakfast food! I am trying to open your eyes to what the majority of America is feeding their self and their children before they head off to a day of learning or work.
