No you don't have to buy scan brans lol, you could just have a different type of cereal that doesn't need an additional scan bran to meet the fibre quota. The thing is, for a cereal to qualify as a healthy extra, it has to have a certain amount of fibre. The 28g portion of fruit & fibre on its own does not contain adequate amounts of fibre which is why SW paired it with a slice of scan bran. So basically your HEB would be 28g fruit & fibre plus 1 scan bran. Scan brans are like ryvitas and can be bought at your SW group. Hopes this makes sense.
