Breakfast cereal

A book that affected my life is "Blue Zones American Kitchen" by Dan Buettner.  He has written about places on earth where people have managed to live unusually long lives and he has concentrated on what such people eat.  I had read some other Buettner books but while reading that one, I realized I had perhaps been too influenced by my wife.  She habitually asks what she had yesterday at a meal and seeks something different for that meal today.  In other words, she guides her eating by the concept of variety.

I read long ago that the Japanese government used the guideline of 30 different foods a day.  I realize that there are micronutrients that our bodies need and variety can help with desire for good as well as getting those nutrients.  But, I have been satisfied with the breakfast flakes in Heritage Flakes and have purchased them in cartons of 6 many times.  That cereal, from Amazon, with milk and fresh blueberries and a banana after is great.
