A little about the great folks at Post Great Grains who made this awesome video and conducted the survey….

• Great Grains has nutrition you can see

• Post Great Grains brings whole foods from the field to your bowl for a nutritious breakfast you have to see to believe. 

•  Less processed ingredients like whole grain flakes from actual wheat berries, as well as real fruit and nuts, come together in this tasty and nutritious morning favorite. 

• Rather than grinding our wheat into flour and then stamping it into uniform flakes, Great Grains carefully cracks or steams the whole wheat berry, which helps to lock in full flavor and nutrients. 

• All of the varieties of Great Grains have at least 30g of whole grains per serving and are a heart healthy way to start the day.
