annefood 8yr 30 g of sugar in the article- yikes!The kind I just ate has 6g sugar per half cup, sweetened with molasses and honey. It also has organic nuts, seeds, oats, unsweetened coconut and spices. I mix in a few spoonfuls of raw unsweetened oats, and eat it with sliced banana and almond milk. Could be better, but this one is pretty good. It's important to read the label! -
