I will be traveling to China perhaps sometime soon, and was wondering about breakfast. At home, I normally eat a high-fiber wheat/bran cereal (like that pictured) with low-fat cow's milk. How available are these types of food in larger cities, such as Nanjing?

Forget the picture, I can't seem to get it loaded.

Cereals are readily available in some of the larger supermarkets like Metro, Carrefour, Walmart ane New Century. There are also a few boutique stores selling International products in some of the larger cities like Chengdu, Guangzhou, Beijing etc. Not sure about Nanjing but you could post a thread on one of the Nanjing Expat websites

Keep in mind that these will be more expensive than normal. I pay about AU Y7 for a small packet of ALLBRAN 200/250 gms

Milk is available in all supermarkets both fresh and long life.

If you're coming from the US, I gotta tell you the milk is not the same. the best milk i found is carried by carrefour and its made by nestle. Still its not the same, its creamier and tastes a little bit off, but its good substitute.
