USA, March 9, 2006:

 

Pardip Kumar of Malaysia sent us the following material which comes

from the Kellog's website at "source." The information reveals that several

of the popular snack products that appear to be vegetarian are actually not.

 

Gelatin is used to help the texture of the product and is derived

from either beef or pork. Kellogg's® Frosted Mini-Wheats® and

Kellogg's® Rice Krispies Treats® cereals contain type B gelatin, which

is derived from beef.

 

Whenever marshmallow ingredients are present in a Kellogg's®cereal

brand, the marshmallow contains type A gelatin, which is derived from pork.

Kellogg's® Krave Snack Bars also contain type A gelatin derived from

pork sources.

 

Type B gelatin is derived from beef sources and is found in the

frosting of all varieties of Kellogg's® Frosted Pop-Tarts®, Kellogg's®

Frosted Pop-Tarts® Snak-Stix, all varieties of Kellogg's®

Pop-Tarts®Pastry Swirls, and Kellogg's® Nutri-Grain® Minis with Yogurt

Icing.

 

Plain (unfrosted) Kellogg's® Pop-Tarts® do not contain gelatin.

None of the equipment that comes in contact with the gelatin in

Kellogg's®Frosted Pop-Tarts® is used in the production of the other

pastries.

 

Kellogg's® Rice Krispies Treats® Squares contain type A gelatin

in the marshmallow, which is derived from pork sources.
