Found a rock in my cereal

Malt O Meal - Found a rock in my cereal

Was eating the cereal, I bit down on what it felt like a rock, and almost broke my tooth. I put it to the side to keep eating as I felt as if it was a one time thing and bit another. I stopped eating and looked through and found 7 more dime sized pieces in my bowl, and 22 more in the bag before I just stopped counting and threw the bag away.

There's more fruity then coco. You wouldn't really notice the difference but I bought both. I understand the Economics of inflation but this is ridiculous

False advertisement

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Im just wondering why yall have denied my email that I sent yall? That does not look good in yalls company and will be hearing from my attorney if yall dont fix yalls mistake for false advertisement.

This is not how much cereal that should be in the bag. My kids only had enough for 2 bowels of cereal a piece and they was sad it was gone so fast.

A complement

I love Malto meal cereal. My favorite maple brown sugar, but have you ever though about making a pumpkin spice malto meal?

Just a though. Thank for your great cereal.

Dear sir's,

I've a complaint/ query,

I eat frosted flakes nearly every morning i get out of bed and am pretty used to knowing how they taste and feel, but the last bag i got( bought about 4/4 Walmart johnstown PA) was a bit different!, same great taste but seemed to have hard bits in it!, like the flakes were not properly rolled during the production process, you know!, you'd want to be careful of your fillings as you bite down on them, there were hard bits!!, and felt you could chip a tooth!

Anyway I felt i should share this with you, im sorry i can't give you batch or product codes as they are gone in trash, just where and when i bought them, you might look into it, and thank you so much for your time

Hair in brand new bag of cereal

My spouse and I were having a bowl of cereal , I got a brand new bag of cereal opened it up poured our bowels as we both started eating our cereal I took a bite and as I was chewing I felt a hair in my cereal spit out the cereal not long after my incident with the hair she had the same thing happen to her, I. Am very disgusted and worried about my health after that .

Disappointed

I have been a long time customer of the mom cereal products. Not only were they a more economical option for my large family ot 9 kids, but i loved yhe simple ingredients on most products.

For the last couple of years I have been very disappointed to see that the ingredient list includes Trisodium Phosphate, TSP. A terrible and unnecessary additive. Previous ingredients did not include it and the shelf life was just fine.

It has no place in food. It has limited the options we can choose.

View full review
Pros:
  • Better price
Cons:
  • Just like the box brands now

Preferred solution: To change back to the old ingredients.

User's recommendation: I do not recommend any products with TSP from MOM

That was one of my reasons for only buying malt o meal brand because they used to be the only one that didn't put all that crap in there. Now they're just like the rest of the brand's!
