Cheerios is a brand of breakfast cereal. Cheerios was created on June 19, 1941 and is marketed by the General Mills cereal company of Golden Valley, Minnesota, as the first oat-based, ready-to-eat cold cereal. It was called Cheeri Oats at first, later changed to Cheerios because of a trade name dispute with Quaker Oats.[1] The name fit the "O" shape of the cereal pieces. In some other countries, including the UK, it is sold by Cereal Partners under the Nestlé brand. In 2008, Cheerios released a line of Snack Mix, in Original and Cheese flavors. All Cheerios shipped to the east coast of the United States are manufactured in the General Mills plant in Buffalo, New York. In 2009 a dispute developed concerning the FDA considering Cheerios an "unapproved new drug" because of its marketing and health claims.[2]

MyoFab:

Cheerios are great for breakfast or a snack anytime of the day. Instead of a bag of chips eat some Cheerios with an apple or orange for example. Cheerios are high in fiber and low in saturated fat and cholesterol. I like Cheerios because they are hard to over eat.
