Breakfast cereals(谷类早餐食物) are popular in many countries. In the USA, they are served in nine out of ten homes. They are made from grains(谷物)such as corn, wheat and rice.
In the beginning, cereals were healthy food. In the late 1800s, some doctors in the USA made them in hospitals and gave them to their patients. However, this soon changed, and from the 19305, some companies began to add sugar to their cereals and sell them as children's food. They made a lot of money this way, but they weren't healthy food anymore. These days some children s cereals are 50% sugar

Keep More Food on the Table
It's said that in some parts of the world, people are facing the problem of hunger. So what can we do to help them? Here are some suggestions:
Cook from the fridge
Start with the fresh foods. If you have some in the fridge, use them first. Make a meal with what you have got instead of running out to the supermarket for something else.
Learn to read the labels
“Best-before” and“use-by” dates are more important. Learn to know the different periods of foods and know how to cook them in the right way. For example, black bananas are proper for baking, fresh vegetables are good in soups, and bread that is not fresh can be turned into small pieces.
Use the freezer(冷冻室)
The freezer can keep foods fresh until you are ready to cook them, and store the cooked foods until you're ready to eat them. It's also the best place for the remaining food. Mark the date of the food nearby, so it's easy to find the foods you need to eat first and you will never leave them there for too long.
Shop with a list
Plan meals ahead of time so that you know exactly what to buy. Doing this helps reduce food waste because it's possible to buy too much of a certain food and then forget to eat or cook it later.
