My breakfast is really peachy, with some apricots thrown in too.
I have recently started eating special k peach and apricot for my breakfast, why well because I thought I really did ought to try and eat a bit healthier and this would be better than my toast and marmalade or honey.
I bought my 375g packs for £2.78 at Tesco They are often on special offer . BOGOF or buy 2 together cheaper than seperatly '
Per 100 g has 373 kcal, 1gram fat
The ingredients
Rice, Sugar, Wheat (Whole-wheat, Wheat Flour), Wheat Gluten, Sweetened Freeze Dried Fruit (6%)(Peach, Apricot, Sugar), Dried Skimmed Milk, Defatted Wheat germ, Salt, Barley Malt Flavouring, Vitamin C, Niacin, Iron, Vitamin B6, Riboflavin (B2), Thiamin (B1), Folic Acid, Vitamin D, Vitamin B12.
For those with allergies it contains milk, wheat and barley.

So sat at my pine table in the kitchen for breakfast I open the peachy coloured packet with a big red K .On the packet there is a fat guideline and info about a body fat challenge,
I pour some cereal into a bowl. I can smell its a little fruity. Some golden brown flakes (a little like corn or bran flakes) fall into my bowl. Along with the rice and wheat flakes fall a good proportion of dried peach and apricot pieces. I eat mine with out milk; some people prefer milk with theirs.. I sometimes eat a plain ior vanilla yoghurt with mine.
I taste a flake or two they are crunchy and a little sweet The dried fruit pieces are quite large and certainly taste of the fruit, Now I am finding this cereal a bit too sweet so I add some ordinary bran flakes to my bowl. Yes that's better the sweetness is not so intense now. I get the flavour but it's not so sweet so I have added about ¼ pack of bran flakes and mixed them in .I like special k with peach and Apricots this way.
A bowlful of this made a satisfying tasty breakfast. I really ought to go on a diet properly but till then this, as a breakfast cereal is my token effort,
Special K come plain of course and there is a red berry variety, which I have also eaten.
Thanks for reading enjoy your breakfasts Mary
