This are the major players for my Sunday breakfast now. (Bacon, eggs and sausage were off getting prepped.)
Quaker oatmeal pancake mix - they're a bit chunky but it's oatmeal and I'm not a fan of oatmeal but, who can argue with 4g of fiber?
Mrs. Butterworth's sugar-free syrup - When I was a kid, we used to make our mom get us this. She always wanted to get the cheaper syrup but she never caved that is, until I walked in on her pouring cheap syrup into Mrs. Butterworth's glass container. I never did find out how long my mom had been doing this. It broke my heart but, at this age, it makes me chuckle at how devious my mom was. This particular sugar-free (SF) syrup is fantastic and, like many SF products, it tastes sweeter than the original.
Hershey's sugar-free chocolate syrup - This is one of those SF products that is milder than it's sugar-laden cousin. It's still good and a great companion to the oatmeal pancakes.
Tropicana 50 apple juice - Apple juice is my drank. It's absolutely divine when it's super cold. Unfortunately, it has so much sugar, even in its natural form. Imagine my surprise when Tropicana 50 started making APPLE JUICE. The 50 stands for 50 less sugar and calories. Just wonderful as was my blood glucose after breakfast.

Your mom is slick! I'm going to have to use that trick when I pop out a few of my own.
Apple juice beats every other beverage when super cold.
Same here. I have a great way to get any future kiddos off the pacifier as well all thanks to my devious mom.
