I’m sure everyone and anyone I know eats Cheerios.
It is the world’s best-selling cereal for its health claims.
Well not according to the U.S. regulators it seems.
The FDA in a warning letter posted on its website says, Cheerios packaging and Internet advertising for the toasted oats violate federal law with promises to lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer.
General Mills Inc., Cheerios maker has been ordered to fix the issues or risk product seizure.
The FDA was quoted, “We certainly don’t have any issues with the safety of Cheerios. We just believe that the labeling on this particular product has gone beyond what the science supports.”
Cheerios anyone?
