Quaker Puffed Wheat Cereal

by Pepsico

A remarkably simple cereal with just puffed wheat and vitamins—no sugar, preservatives, or artificial additives. The only concern is potential glyphosate residue from conventional wheat farming.

  • Puffed Wheat – safe · Whole wheat grain that has been heated and pressurized to create a light, airy texture. Provides fiber and B vitamins naturally.
  • Ferrous Sulfate – safe · Iron supplement commonly used to fortify cereals. Essential mineral that prevents anemia and supports oxygen transport.
  • Niacinamide – safe · Vitamin B3 in its most bioavailable form. Essential for energy metabolism and cellular function.
  • Citric Acid – safe · Natural acid that helps preserve vitamins and prevent rancidity. Derived from citrus fruits or fermentation.
  • Thiamin Mononitrate – safe · Synthetic form of Vitamin B1. Essential for carbohydrate metabolism and nervous system function.
  • Riboflavin – safe · Vitamin B2, essential for energy production and antioxidant function. Naturally occurring in whole grains.
  • Folic Acid – safe · Synthetic form of folate (Vitamin B9). Essential for DNA synthesis and red blood cell formation.
