through, with little difference between the two kinds of cereal nutritionally, but of the two, the cereal which came top in most categories is &ndash; <strong>Corn Flakes.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Corn Flakes contain slightly fewer calories, are slightly higher in protein, and contain 1g of fiber, whereas Rice Krispies don&rsquo;t contain any.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In contrast, Rice Krispies are slightly lower in sugar and sodium, and like Corn Flakes, they don&rsquo;t contain any fat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So it all comes down to which one you like best because there&rsquo;s little difference between the two, but hopefully, the data in this article can help you decide which is best for your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure
