Corporate Responsibility is part of our essence, instilled more than a century ago by our company’s founder W.K. Kellogg.

The report is available at www.kelloggs.ca. Nutrition Kellogg is committed to providing consumers with a wide variety of great-tasting, high quality foods that can be part of a balanced diet. In the past several years alone, Kellogg has renovated hundreds of products worldwide to lower sodium, sugar and fats, and increase fibre. A cereal breakfast is a great way to start the day: - Cereal is typically low fat, nutrient dense food with many essential vitamins and minerals. And, in addition to delivering important nutrients and essential vitamins such as iron, B vitamins and zinc, cereal also delivers the important benefits of grains, including fibre. - Cereal eaters, including those who eat “presweetened cereal”, actually have healthier body weights.1 - Cereal contains less than half the sodium of many popular breakfast items, including one slice of whole wheat toast, one croissant, one medium biscuit, one English muffin, and half a bagel.2 In fact, in Canada ready-to-eat cereal only contributes about 3 per cent of the sodium in the diet. - Canadians only get half of the recommended adequate intake levels of fibre in their diets.4 Starting the day with a bowl of cereal that has at least two grams of fibre will get people on the right track to meet their recommended fibre intake for the day.
