regular cheerios or honey nut cheerios?

I wanted to start letting DD eat some Cheerios, but I only buy the honey nut cause they are good.  I know babies can't have honey, but what about honey flavored things?  I don't mind buying the regular Cheerios for her, but if I can give her what I already have that would be great.  Which can she have?

Regular. She doesn't need the sugar.

There was a sale on Cheerios at HEB this week. The big boxes came out to less than $1.50 with the hanging coupon if I remember correctly. That might end today though. ANd you have to buy multiple boxes, but it was a good deal.

This.  The concern about raw honey is that it can contain (I think?) botulism.  I'm thinking that's not a concern in a cooked item like cheerios, but I still wouldn't give them to her because of the sugar.

Dittos the previous posters...

9g of sugar in the honey nut variety, 1g in regular. The honey nut cheerios also have "natural almond flavor" in them...I don't know if that qualifies as almonds or not, but I'd be careful introducing nuts of any kind to her before a year.

Ditto the others.  Plus, the honey nut are sticky.

My doc said no honey nut cheerios before a year, which surprised me because he gave the ok on pretty much everything else.

I gave my kids Honey Nut before a year.  Not every time, because the others are right.  It does have more sugar.  But those things are good

It doesn't matter, either one. Our doc said no need to be concerned about PB before a year old anymore.
