Ok. What grain is in CORN flakes? I tried to be subtle.
I just said it "Rice" all i know is that i don't think its right.
Sure it is -- Rice Krispies
Also Cheerios -- oats
Just read the cereal boxes!!
Now i got you right .you are really right wow.
Most or all of the corn and wheat used in breakfast cereals made in Battle Creek is shipped from other states. Michigan primarily grows grain to feed cattle and hogs.
Michigan also grows a little beet sugar, so that is also imported from other states.
When the Kellogg Company was founded over 100 years ago, it started as a small factory to make a new kind of health food. At that time, enough grain was grown in the area, that the company didn't have to ship it from other states. As the company grew larger, it exhausted the supplies of corn, wheat, and oats close by, and had to ship it from other states to Battle Creek.
No problem! To clarify, you're asking about the types of grains that are commonly used in cereal production. There are several types of grains that are commonly used to make cereal. I'll explain how you can find this information.
1. Read the ingredient list: The ingredient list on the cereal box is a great place to start. It will usually list the main grains used. Look for terms like wheat, corn, oats, rice, barley, rye, and others.
2. Research online: If you cannot find the information on the cereal box itself, you can search for the specific cereal brand and find the ingredients on their official website or other reliable sources. Many cereal manufacturers provide detailed product information online.
3. Check cereal databases: There are websites and databases dedicated to cataloging different cereal brands and their ingredients. You can search these databases by cereal brand or grain type to find specific information about the grains used.
Remember that different cereal varieties may use different combinations of grains. Some popular grains used in cereal production include wheat, corn, oats, rice, and barley. Many cereals also contain a mix of these grains or combine them with other ingredients like nuts, seeds, and dried fruits.
If you have a particular cereal brand or grain in mind, let me know, and I can provide you with specific information on it!
