Cheerios Protein Settlement Agreement

As part of the settlement agreement announced today, General Mills will stop adding the four grams of protein from milk to the seven grams of protein from the cereal when it states the protein content on the front panel of Cheerios Protein boxes. The words “Sweetened Whole Grain and Oat Cereal” will appear on the front of the box in a font at least 50 percent as large as the font used for the word “protein,” instead of the current, smaller font.
