Basically, if the cereal has flakes, puffs, marshmallows, or comes in odd shapes, then it is processed. The best unprocessed cereal that I can think of is oatmeal. Cold cereals are pretty much a convenience food, with the grains being cooked and processed before being dehydrated and shipped to the market. I have had fresh-rolled oatmeal with milk. It was tasty, although I have heard tell that raw oatmeal isn't exactly the easiest food to digest.
