A Cereal Crisis

I've run into a little problem recently. I am not sure if it is a local problem or if it is like this everywhere. David and I are not big cereal eaters, however, every now and then we like to eat a bowl of cereal. I try my best to buy cereal that is not full of sugar but this has become more and more difficult. One of the best cereals available is puffed wheat... very cheap, no sugar, and full of good stuff. I could buy a large bag (yes it came in plastic bags) for about 50 cents. The last bag I bought was earlier this summer and I noticed it was the last bag on the store shelf. Since then I have not been able to find puffed wheat or puffed rice anywhere! I have searched in no less than 20 stores and it is not to be found. Last week when I was looking yet again I decided to purchase spoonsize Shredded Wheat instead. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to find any cereal that is not loaded with sugar??? I couldn't even find shredded wheat for the longest time.... they had it but it was not the original type... they had it frosted, cinnamon, strawberry, mapel and brown sugar and vanilla creme, but it took forever for me to find a box of just plain old regualr shredded wheat. I did find a box and bought it... at $3 a box. A far cry from the 50 cent bag of puffed wheat. How sad that most cereal today is nothing but a box of sugar. I'm still on the lookout for puffed wheat!
