Is there a cereal without sugar, beside Grape Nuts? I did find Post Shredded Wheat without sugar. Instead it had butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) - a suspected carcinogen - added for preservation’s sake.

Who’s going to preserve our lives? BHT is in many cereals and other supposedly for-human-consmption foods. I bet the executives at the food companies don’t feed that stuff to their kids or themaelves.

I think that is one of those ingredients that has been known to cause cancer...in California but not in the rest of the states.

The BHT is in the PACKAGING if you actually read past the first bit.

Besides which, even though BHA, BHT, ETC are used, can you tell me what harm has been done since these “new, miraculous chenicals” were introduced DECADES ago?

Incidentally: I thought that FALSE ADVERTISING has been illegal since long before POST Foods existed. How do they get away with “Grape Nuts” cereal when there are NO grapes, and NO nuts contained in the box so labelled?
