Ingredients
Ingredient overview, not a full transcription: whole-grain wheat, sugar, molasses, salt, baking soda and vitamin E; added vitamins and minerals. Consult the manufacturer list.
Manufacturer allergen statement
Manufacturer statement: contains wheat ingredients. The product page explicitly says Wheat Chex is not gluten-free.
We do not infer allergen-free or gluten-free certifications from an ingredient list.
A cup is not a shared weight
The checked serving is 59 g. Keep that larger gram amount in mind when reading per-serving differences against the other two cereals in our comparison.
Use the product-specific statement
Do not rely on a search title or assumptions about the wider brand. Open the product page and the current package for the exact version you have.
No overall winner is inferred
The table records label facts. It does not establish which cereal is best for your health or promise a weight outcome.

How do I use the two nutrition columns?
The first column follows 1 cup (59g). The derived column uses an equal 100 g weight only where the source supports it. Neither amount is a prescribed portion. Read the calculation guide.
Does zero added sugar mean zero total sugar?
No. Added sugars are included within total sugars. Read both rows without adding them together, and do not turn either number into an overall health rating. Understand the two sugar fields.
What if my package looks different?
Check the exact flavor, market, package and preparation state. Follow the current physical package for ingredients and allergens. You can report a source mismatch without sending personal health information.
