People eat by volume, not by calories, so its pretty hard to get obese by eating cereal because the bulk isn't sugar. This argument is shoddy at best.

McDonald's.. now that's some serious caloric intake.

We need to start eating breakfasts that reflect the economy: oatmeals, gruels, cabbage water.

At least she put the responsibility on the parents and didn't say the government should get involved. As much as I don't think a bowl of cereal is going to make you fat, you really have to be doing more than that to get obese which is more than just over weight its being obscenely over weight.

Overall a good idea but an overall healthy diet will do more than just cutting back on cereal.
