In January, General Mills will be introducing a new ingredient to its classic Cheerios cereal: Ancient grains. Yum.
NPR reports "the new version of Cheerios will contain small amounts of quinoa, Kamut wheat and spelt along with the traditional oats." A serving of the new "Cheerios + Ancient Grains" cereal will have five grams of sugar.
The company is hoping this addition to its cereal line will help rejuvenate the brand.
A sure sign that quinoa, Kamut wheat and spelt have gone mainstream. http://t.co/E5Dazb3DVc pic.twitter.com/femHhAnt2w
