General Mills' Wonderworks Keto Friendly Cereal specifically caters to keto consumers with a formula that's low in net carbs and sugar. Available in varieties like [cinnamon, peanut butter and chocolate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ghost-protein-cereal-x-cinnamon-toast-crunch), the breakfast cereals are sweetened with a blend of allulose, erythritol and stevia, so that there's only a single gram of sugar per each one-cup serving.

The keto-friendly breakfast cereals are made with ingredients like milk protein, [whey protein](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/truely-cereal), inulin, corn fiber and rice starch and they come in between 150 to 160 calories.

Since cereal, by definition, is a grain and a high-carb food, it can be challenging for those following the keto diet to find [low-carb breakfast options](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holies-cereal) that provide the comforts they're familiar with. The Wonderworks Keto Friendly Cereals even have the potential to be appetizing to people not on the keto diet.
