Raisin Bran ingredients: what's banned overseas?
Parent company: WK Kellogg Co. / Post Consumer Brands
About Raisin Bran
Raisin Bran is a popular whole grain bran flake cereal with raisins produced by both Kellogg's and Post Consumer Brands (as separate product lines). The Kellogg's version is one of the top-selling cereals in the US, marketed as a high-fiber, heart-healthy option. It is sold at virtually all US grocery chains and superstores.
Common concerns with Raisin Bran products
Kellogg's Raisin Bran contains BHT as a preservative in the packaging that migrates into the product. Both versions contain high added sugars (the raisins are often sugar-coated, adding to total sugar content). Some flavored varieties include artificial flavors. While marketed as a health food, EWG has flagged the high sugar content and BHT presence as concerns for regular consumers, particularly children.
