Before it came time to put my plan of kicking cereal to the curb into action (read more about why we're doing this), I gently warned the boys (and repeatedly, out of necessity) that we’d all have to be creative and open-minded. I tried to get them excited about eating something different and turn the whole thing into an adventure; as any parent likely knows, it’s all in how you spin it and they take their cues from us.
Once I gave them a real representation of sugar content in cereal by measuring out granulated sugar by the teaspoon, Desmond started reading labels on the boxes more actively and asking questions.
