A guide to the staple diet of college students everywhere
Introduction
Cereal. We all eat it. Cereal is good for any time of the
day. It is the staple diet of every college student. Eating cereal
can satisfy three of the four food groups.
Here's an example:
The cereal itself already satisfies the bread group because it
is all made of oats. The milk satisfies the dairy group. If the
cereal being eaten is Fruit Loops that's a pretty healthy breakfast.
This paper is a dissertation of the food of a culture. My hope
is to help you in your quest to curb your hunger and hopefully
introduce you to some tricks of the trade.
Cereals to put you in the mood
At any time there should be at least four different kinds
of cereal in the cabinet. As people we can go through several
different moods throughout the day. To live a healthy, reduced-stress
lifestyle, we should have enough cereals to accommodate several
different moods or purposes.
Sugar cereals, such as Count Chocula or Fruity Pebbles, can
give you a quick wake up for days when you need to be on the
go quick. Sugar cereals can be an excellent choice for consumption
on days of a Mid-term. However, if you have a very active day
coming up, you may want a cereal that will provide for a sustaining
energy.
Cereals that consist mostly of complex carbohydrates rather
than sugars (simple carbos) will offer a more sustained energy
to keep you going longer through the day. Cereals such as Grape-Nuts
or Cherrios are an excellent example of this type of cereal.
For days when you are not sure what kind of day you may getting
yourself into, adding fruit to the meal by chopping a banana
or simply by pouring bowl of Raisin Bran can offer sustained
energy while the sugars or the fruit will give you an initial
kick.
Cereals with a larger mix of foodstuffs can add much to the
menu. Cranberry Almond Crunch, with its fruit and nuts, is a
well-rounded meal for just about any occasion.
