This petition hopes to open the eyes of women everywhere who believe that by eating Special K products they are making a healthy choice. Special K markets its products as slimming and a healthy choice becuase they are "low in fat". Special K even advocates replacing a meal or two a day with their prodcts in order to loose weight. This is unsustainable and unhealthy. Special K products are high in sugar. Their porridge for example has 11g more sugar per serving than plain old steel cut oats, Special K porridge is not lower in fat then ordinary oats (because oats basically dont contain fat!)and it has no more protien. It is however 3x more expensive than ordinary oats, which are actually better for you! In fact all their cereals contain 10g sugar minimum. That's three teaspoons full and 40 empty calories.
