Worth knowing

Oats baked in oil and sweetener: granola runs about five times the calories of corn flakes per cup. On the energy-density scale, 489 kcal per 100 g puts granola at the very high end. Fiber is the standout at 8.9 g per 100 g, which slows a portion down more than the calorie count suggests.
