General Mills to Reduce Sugar in Cereals

I don't think General Mills should reduce sugar in Children's Cereals. Does Coke have to change it's Coke formula? Does Hershey's have to reduce sugar in its candy bars? Parents have a variety of options for kids cereals--both higher and low sugar. Make the choice that's best for your family but don't ruin the taste for the rest of us.
