Puffed cereals: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category covers breakfast cereals made by puffing grains, such as rice or wheat, often coated with sugar or flavourings. Examples include puffed rice and puffed wheat. The ingredient list typically shows the main grain used, followed by sugars, oils, and flavourings. For these products, the amount of sugars is a key consideration, as many are coated. The nutrition label will show the energy content per serving, along with amounts of fat, saturated fat, sugars, and salt. Fibre content is also shown, and the presence of whole grains can be identified by checking the ingredient list; whole grains are usually listed earlier in the list if they are a significant component. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) advises that free sugars should not exceed 5% of total dietary energy. The ingredient list will also show the type and amount of added salt. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
