Special K Original Toasted Rice Cereal

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Kellogg's Special K Original Toasted Rice Cereal scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid 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.

Kellogg's Special K Original Toasted Rice Cereal lists 18 ingredients, starting with Rice, Wheat Gluten, Sugar, Defatted Wheat Germ and Salt. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Kellogg's Special K Original Toasted Rice Cereal scores worse than most cereal we have scored. A higher-scoring option in cereal is Lovebird Grain Free Honey Breakfast Cereal at 100/100.
