bran flakes

Husky breakfast flakes

Bran flakes are a breakfast cereal made from the outer husks of wheat or oat grains, pressed into flat flakes.

They're marketed as a high-fiber, healthy option: I switched to bran flakes to get more fiber in my diet.

The cereal is typically eaten with milk, sometimes with fruit added.
