Common questions

Is Instant Hot Cereal healthy?

Instant Hot Cereal scores 71/100 on Tallow — our clean band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Instant Hot Cereal?

Instant Hot Cereal lists 13 ingredients, starting with Whole Grain Rolled Oats, Barley, Brown Sugar, Apples and Fructose. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Instant Hot Cereal contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Instant Hot Cereal’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".
