Luckily Charmed…

For the most part, I'm a pretty healthy eater. Aside from the occasional pat of butter, cream and bacon fat, I eat loads of greens and avoid the nasty additives… That said, I have a weakness for sugar cereals, and could eat them for breakfast lunch and dinner, and have. But as the metabolism starts slowing down, I've been trying to avoid unnecessary sugars, and especially the fake ones.
But last week, I broke down and did it. It was late, I was hungry and I was at Whole Foods, when I saw this charming bag of cereal on an end-cap and couldn't resist. Junk cereal at Whole Foods? Marshmallows and all…Well if it's at whole foods, it must be good for me, right?
With packaging this sweet, I didn't even care. Three Sister's version of Lucky Charms called Marshmallow Oaties has gone green in many ways. While they're still using plastic (and I don't see a recycle symbol on their "freshness saver bag") they're manufacturing their cereal using 100% wind-generated electricly and their marshmallows are made with natural colors from pumpkin, blueberry and carrot! Vegetables in my cereal!? Yes!!!
Overall, this was one smart design I couldn't pass up, no box, no dies, no HFCS and some damn cute illustrations to boot. Each bag features a half-zip closure, and a different pasture scene complete with windmills and different breeds of cows. Leave it to sisters…
