The fine print on the front of the Vector box and its nutrition information panel explains that the advertised 13 grams of protein comes from adding 200 milliliters of skim milk to the flakes.

Cereal boxes have shown the nutritional content with milk for as long as I can remember (decades). Has something changed recently?

No blueberries in 'blueberry' cereal

Yeah, this has always been a thing, and it is frustrating.

Unless the cereal says โ€œwith ABCโ€, assume that it doesn't have it. For example, Raisin Bran WITH CRANBERRIES, has actual cranberries in it (and raisins, which is also stated on the box).

If you purchase complex cereal, check the ingredients to see if it has the nuts, fruit, sweetener you're specifically wanting. If it's not clear, assume that it's not in it.

They had to replace the dwindling two scoops of raisins with something. if you buy Kellogs vs PC brand Raisin Bran, PC has what Kellogs used to. Kellogs is now a joke.

Yeah, I've had some store brand raisin brand that are loaded with raisins. Almost too many! LOL

I don't remember the last time I bought the Kellogg's version, but I do recall being disappointed with the amount of raisins in the box.
