About ORIGINAL SWEETENED CORN & OAT CEREAL, ORIGINAL
Cap'n Crunch Original is corn flour and sugar, sweetened further with brown sugar, and fried in palm or coconut oil to achieve that dense, jaw-scraping crunch. The texture is distinctive and intentional: the dense corn-oat pillows resist sogginess longer than most cereals. Fiber is minimal, protein is low, and the carbohydrate profile is almost entirely refined starch and sugar. Yellow 5 and Yellow 6 give the cereal its signature color. BHT is added to keep the oil fresh. It delivers exactly the sweetened crunch experience it has always promised.
