Quaker Life cereal, Family size, Target, Maine, USA

3 years ago •reported by user-krgnr665 • details

Life cereal sent me running for the toilet 12-24 hours after consumption, this has happened TWICE from the same box! I have eaten Life for years and never had an issue until now. Apparently other cereal companies, besides General Mills, in the US are no longer safe! | Symptoms: Diarrhea
