INGREDIENTS
What is the source of gelatin in your products?
Gelatin, which is used in some of our products to provide texture, is derived from either beef or pork. Products containing pork gelatin include Kellogg cereal products with marshmallow additives (i.e., Kellogg's® Marshmallow Froot Loops cereal and Kellogg's Smorz® cereal) and all varieties of Kellogg's® Rice Krispies Treats® Squares. Products containing beef gelatin include all varieties of Kellogg's® Frosted Pop-Tarts®, Kellogg's® Frosted Mini-Wheats® cereal, Kellogg's® Rice Krispies Treats cereal, and the Kellogg's® Fruit-Flavored Snacks that contain gelatin.

The information provided here is intended to act as a general guide only. We ask that you always check the Nutrition Facts on the side panel of each of our packages to determine if the product contains any ingredient(s) that you want to avoid.

You should read Shaykh al-Albani's explanation about this gelatin issue... It is very thorough and proves from a fiqh standpoint gelatin goes through a process that changes the substance derived from the animal to a different substance entirely.

Not in the Middle East. You think Kellogg's doesn't know its markets or that grocery stores in the Gulf don't know ingredients when they order? A little more credit, please.
