Cereal Killer-Part 2
November 3, 2009
New boxes of Kellogg’s Cocoa Krispies, boast that eating that sugary cereal will boost your child’s immunity. Playing on parents fears of swine flu and other communicable diseases has not gone over well so far. Recently the city of San Francisco sent a letter to the FDA asking that the claim be proven. Kellogg’s states that by increasing the amount of vitamins A, C, & E from 10% of daily value to 25%; they have boosted immunity. Experts from Yale and NYU have both disputed these claims. It was less than 6 months ago that Kellogg’s was forced to remove unsubstantiated claims from their Mini-Wheats advertisements. click here for limerick
