This Week's Culinary Quiz (Answer at the bottom of page)
Which company was the first to introduce "reduced sugar"
cereals to their sweet cereal line-up?
answer:
General Mills introduced 75% less sugar versions of Trix, Cinnamon
Toast Crunch, and Cocoa Puffs in early 2004. Kellogg's responded to
Genneral Mills by introducing 1/3 less sugar versions of Frosted
Flakes and Fruit Loops. According to the book "Cerealizing America",
the cereal industry uses 816 million pounds of sugar per year! The
major cereal companies are trying to respond to consumer demands to
live a healthier life style and are recreating their popular
breakfasts cereals using a blend of sugar and Splenda, or other
artificial non-caloric sweetners.
