THIS IS LITERALLY THE EXACT PROBLEM I AM HAVING. Apparently every time I eat cheerios of any kind, my stomach acts up hours later. Either if my stomach has difficulty digesting the food, or there is an ingredient in there that is making me sick, or even others. Because of this, I experienced nausea, sweating, excessive thirst, and mild dehydration. The nausea gave me a panic attack which then in term, worsened it. When I ate an orange while nauseous, my stomach decided to regurgitate it back up to my mouth (not vomiting since it wasn't completely digested) because of the fact I was nauseous due to the cheerios cereal. Then when I got in bed, I had to go to the bathroom. Regurgitated again. Now I have been avoiding this brand since it is affecting my stomach.

If you have this EVERY time you eat cheerios then Cheerios isn't the issue. It's your individual issue with the cheerios. The way it's listed makes it look like they're to blame and that's not what it is.

Hi, thank you for your comment. TIP: It is possible to get sick from cereal. Starting in late 2021, Lucky Charms food poisoning reports started to trend on our site and we got around 7,300 persons citing they got sick from it. Even the FDA initiated an investigation into it. A similar situation was related to Cheerios cereal in 2022.
