Is Lucky Charms cereal healthy?
General Mills introduced Luck Charms Cereal in the 1960s, and since the federal government mandated the vitamin and mineral enrichment of flour in 1941, Lucky Charms has always been a good source of vitamins and minerals.

However, Lucky Charms does contain a fair amount of sugar, so this relatively healthy breakfast cereal may not be a good choice for everyone.
