[QUOTE="witzend, post: 547229, member: 99"] These are cereals that are very high in sugar. difficult child should look at the ingredients list. Most cereals will have some sugar in them, but it shouldn't be in the top 5 ingredients if he doesn't want a really sugary cereal. Cheerios or Special K or Corn Flakes are good unsweetened cereals. Most people buy these and put a small amount of sugar on them when they pour the bowl - less than a teaspoon. If he likes porridge, he should look for "Instant Oats" or "Cream of Wheat". He can heat some water and add that and a pinch of salt to the bowl and then sweeten as he likes. They are probably not going to want the super-sweet ones if they are used to porridge. Both "Sweetened Condensed Milk" and "Evaporated Milk" come in a can and are usually used in cooking. The recipe should usually call for one or the other. Twizzlers are much softer and sweeter than red vines. It's a matter of taste. I prefer red vines. Baking mixes are handy and cheap. They're very tasty and moist. [/QUOTE]
