BIG CEREAL IS THE BIGGEST CULPRIT

Thanks to the work of the Environmental Working Group, we know that Big Cereal companies are knowingly promoting and selling oatmeals, cereals and bars that contain glyphosate. Many of these products are marketed toward kids, the most vulnerable group affected by glyphosate.

OUR LATEST RESULTS (MARCH 2022)

In our latest voluntary third-party test, < 0.01 mg/kg of glyphosate (NONE) was found in our oat-based mueslis, both conventional and organic. The US's acceptable daily intake is 1.75 milligrams per kilogram of bodyweight per day.
