Let them eat cake

According to the research reported in this BBC news report on cereals, it'd be healthier.

(No proper control for portion size, mind you.)

I am mildly surprised that Special K, marketted to slimmers as being a healthy option, actually has more than twice the sugar content of good old cornflakes. However, the news that Coco Pops are 37% sugar by weight is no surprise to me. I do hope that no parents believe it's at all healthy for their children.

On wines

I am amused.

In Tesco currently, there are (among a large number of other ones) Ogio wines from Puglia going at a reduced price.

One of them is a Primitivo Red.
And one of them is a Zinfandel Rosé.

Hmmm.
