USA, March 9, 2006: Pardip Kumar of Malaysia sent us the following
material which comes from the Kellog's website at "source." The
information reveals that
several of the popular snack products that appear to be vegetarian are
actually
not.

Gelatin is used to help the texture of the product and is derived from
either
beef or pork. Kellogg's(R) Frosted Mini-Wheats(R) and Kellogg's(R) Rice
Krispies Treats(R) cereals contain type B gelatin, which is derived
from beef.

Whenever marshmallow ingredients are present in a Kellogg's(R)cereal
brand, the
marshmallow contains type A gelatin, which is derived from pork.
Kellogg's(R)
Krave(TM) Snack Bars also contain type A gelatin derived from pork
sources.

Type B gelatin is derived from beef sources and is found in the
frosting of all
varieties of Kellogg's(R) Frosted Pop-Tarts(R), Kellogg's(R) Frosted
Pop-Tarts(R) Snak-Stix(TM), all varieties of Kellogg's(R)
Pop-Tarts(R)Pastry Swirls, and Kellogg's(R) Nutri-Grain(R) Minis with
Yogurt Icing.

Plain (unfrosted) Kellogg's(R) Pop-Tarts(R) do not contain gelatin.
None of the
equipment that comes in contact with the gelatin in Kellogg's(R)Frosted
Pop-Tarts(R) is used in the production of the other pastries.

Kellogg's(R) Rice Krispies Treats(R) Squares contain type A gelatin in
the marshmallow, which is derived from pork sources.
