Why should cereal be eaten in a balanced diet?

In a balanced diet, cereal should be eaten because it has grains in it. Grains are good for your body, and the best grain is 'whole grain'. Whole Grain is also very good for you, and provides many things for your body. Also, cereal is a breakfast food, and eating PopTarts, Toaster Struels, pancakes, and waffles aren't very good for you all the time.
