Summary

Kellogg's Raisin Bran scores 27/100. Food Democracy Now / The Detox Project 2016 testing (Anresco Laboratories) confirmed positive for glyphosate. The whole grain wheat and wheat bran provide real fiber, but the deck adds sugar AND brown sugar syrup on top of the natural fructose in raisins — a heavy total-sugar load that's often masked as 'fiber-rich breakfast'.
