Happy Birthday CHEERIOS!
The most popular cereal brand in the U.S. is Cheerios, and it turns 70 this year!
General Mills waterfront plant right here in Buffalo has been making Cheerios since 1941...you can still smell Cheerios in the air some mornings downtown.
One out of every eight boxes of cereal sold in the United States is Cheerios...and it's a great first food for toddlers.
Despite rumors though is you plant Cheerios you can't grow doughnuts!!
