About General Mills Mermaid Cereal
General Mills Mermaid Cereal runs on whole grain corn, sugar, corn meal, and corn syrup, with canola oil and a trio of synthetic dyes, Red 40, Yellow 6, and Blue 1, giving it the colorful aquatic look. The grain base is real whole grain corn, but sugar dominates the carbohydrate profile with almost no fiber relative to total carbs. Fortified with a standard vitamin and mineral package. This is a novelty cereal aimed at young kids, where the colors and shapes do most of the selling.
