Budget and health-conscious cereal

Savvy shoppers know healthy alternatives are often more expensive on grocery shelves, but Mom’s Best Naturals cereal line offers healthier cold breakfast cereals at budget pricing. Two new varieties, Toasted Cinnamon Squares and Honey Grahams, contain no high-fructose corn syrup, artificial preservatives, colors, flavors or hydrogenated oil, and they’re priced at 20 to 50 percent less than most natural and organic cereals. Sold in family-size 17.5-ounce boxes, they retail for $2.29 to $3.29 at Wal-Mart and Albertson’s.
