    I have been to 2 different places and cannot find the cereal. Like Russ, even the shelf labels are gone. Is it still being produced?

    I love this cereal. High fiber and all natural. I have been eating it for years, and it is still readily available in Canada.

    I love this cereal. No sugar, no sodium, good flavor and more fiber than just shredded wheat. But I cannot find it in the stores lately. What's up? Aren't they making it anymore? All I could find is spoon size shredded wheat. :o(

    Where the heck is this cereal? I went to three stores this week. Even the shelf-labels are gone. What gives? Is there something I don't know and should know?!

    @BillV - The same thing happened to me this lovely morning. I nearly threw up. It was the honey-flavored shredded wheat.

    I've been eating this for years and NEVER ran across a hair.

    I was Googling "hair in Grape Nuts Flakes" when I came across your posts. Rather than burying this on the Grape Nuts Flakes page, I thought I would keep this on the "hair" page. I found a single hair coming out of a small blob of flakes. Again, a freshly opened box. This I found after feeling the hair on my lips and pulling out of my mouth. Disgruntled employee? Barber shop next to packaging station?

    This morning I opened a fresh box. I was enjoying a bowl of cereal until I found a ball of hair in my mouth, encased in one of the bite size nuggets. Their website does not have a place for comments, so here I am.
