Supervalu Vs Frosted Flakes

While I stopped at my local Wal-Mart to pick up a few things I did notice that one of the items my children did like was the Kellogg’s Frosted Mini Wheat’s cereal, and as I looked a little down the isle I saw Wal-Mart’s Version called Great Value Shredded Wheat. As I took a closer look, for the first time in a while I noticed the similarities in terms how the picture was positioned on both boxes. How the look was different yet similar in an odd way. The Wal-Mart version was indeed presented as a version of the same cereal offered by Kellogg’s, but at a lower cost for those cost conscious consumers. They were placed in similar fashion further down the isle, but not to much further. It had its own sections of Great Value cereal products that

To consider this we need cost of goods sold; beginning and ending inventory. The higher the ratio or lower average days in inventory suggest that management is reducing the amount of inventory on relative to sales.

Dist. LEXIS 96108 at *7-8. The box mimics the design of health food cereal boxes, despite “sugar” and “corn syrup” being third and fourth on the ingredients list. Sabach, Exhibit A. This contrasts with Videtto v. Kellogg USA, 2009 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 43114, *7-8 (E.D. Cal. May 20, 2009), where fancifully design elements including the spelling of “Froot” and the mascot signaled that the cereal was unhealthy. Similarly, the box claims “100% nutrition.” Sabach, Exhibit A. This could be misinterpreted to mean that the cereal contains 100% of daily nutrition, like the possibility that “‘all natural ingredients’ could … be interpreted … as a claim that all the ingredients in the product were natural.” Henderson, 2011 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 41077 at *31. Dominik Sabach implies that because of these factors, “he intentionally chose “Complete Blueberry Pomegranate” over other cereals…. Based on looking at the cereal boxes, Dominik believed that … other cereals … were likely to contain greater quantities of sugar and artificial sweeteners.” Sabach at 8. Thus, this packaging is “false, misleading, and reasonably likely to deceive the public.” Id. at

Have you ever been in a rush or really late to your destination or job? What would you grab when in a rush? A scrumptious waffle or a messy pancake? I’ll make the decision for you, a waffle. Waffles are perfect for on the go situations because the divots in the waffles are perfect to keep syrup, butter and other topping in but with a messy waffle the toppings just fall off without the divots.

Kellogg’s cereal provides a variety of nutrition’s cereals that deliver the benefits of grains, and provide important nutrients like iron, B vitamins, zinc and fibre.

The big names use things like high fructose corn syrup, MSG, and phosphoric acid to replace more costly ingredients like cane sugar, real extract, and natural juice. High fructose corn syrup is an incredibly low-buck additive that gives a sweet, refreshing taste. This has opened the floodgates to large companies which are now using it for just about anything these days. This in turn lowers the cost of the final product you see on the shelves. Your body can never deplete the MSG you consume. It will build and build forever. Phosphoric acid is known to soften bones and teeth. There is little warning through advertising about the long term effects of these man-made ingredients. We need to increase awareness of the proven dangerous ingredients companies are using in their products. Our government is allowing this to happen, thus diabetes, obesity, cancer, and heart problems continue to develop amongst not only adults, but the young generation as well. These quick and easy snacks are slowly killing

Weakness- A major foreseeable weakness OMG Active Cereal may encounter is that the cereal could be perceived by the public as just another “nutritious cereal”. There are many kinds of nutritious conscious cereals in today’s market produced by several different companies. Each year, a few more of these cereals are created and placed on each and every grocer’s shelves. A weakness for our newly released cereal could be that breakfast-eating consumers will group OMG Active Cereal along with the average nourishing cereals before eating or becoming cognizant of our cereal’s fantastic features other than especially served for the teenagers.

The cereal industry is very adamant on using a differentiation strategy to make one’s brand stand out in the minds of certain people. The companies break down the public into different target markets; and then make products that will be attractive to their target markets. Companies make different brands for young kids, teenagers, adults, and people who are health conscience. Currently, there are 387 different brands of cereal sold in the United States and each family is estimated to purchase 17 different brands per year.

Description- Apple-Snap Flakes are a frosted cinnamon sugar flake cereal with real dehydrated apple chunks included. It is a new product we are starting to produce and we are expecting the cereal to hit retail stores very soon. The cereal consists first of corn flakes, frosted (think frosted flakes) and also cinnamon sugar on the flakes as well. This provides a sweet taste for the cereal, and a crunch to compliment it. The other component of the cereal is the dehydrated apple chunks. These are essentially dried apples, in the same vein as other strawberry cereals. The apples provide a slightly tangy flavor to balance out the sweetness of the flakes. Also, once the apples are in milk, they soften, creating a satisfying crunch from flakes and softness from the apples.
