Koo Koo for Reduced Sugar Cocoa Puffs!

Cold cereal is back! For many of our Grocery Center clients out there, this is the best news one could hear. If you shop any time this month you’ll find Reduced Sugar Cocoa Puffs waiting for you on the shelves. This item has 3 grams of sugar per serving as compared to 12 grams for regular Cocoa Puffs. This product is also made with whole grain corn meal. Now, let’s not kid ourselves, this is not a health food product so if you have concerns about your sugar intake you may want to choose oatmeal instead. Of course, you can’t eat oatmeal by the handful right out of the box and you certainly won’t have any chocolaty milk to slurp up when you get to the bottom of your oatmeal bowl…
Speaking of milk, we’ve got some great soy milk products available. We are featuring the Pearl brand of soy milk in vanilla and chocolate. Pearl is made by Kikkoman; it is lactose free, high in protein and does not need to be refrigerated until it’s opened. Soy milk & Cocoa Puffs, what could be better?
