Wake up and smell the plant-based breakfast cereal!
Cereal lover? You know we’ve got the details on those plant-based breakfast options! Although the cereal aisle seems to be full of an unlimited supply, not all of them are vegan. Aside from the overt non-vegan ingredients like milk, honey, and gelatin, vitamin D is a less obvious additive that may be lurking in your brekkie go-to. Vitamin D3 is often derived from lanolin, a wool byproduct, but the vegan options either utilize a vegan form of vitamin D or forgo the nutrient altogether. Now you know! So, whether you prefer fruity, kid-style cereals or plain, fiber-rich options, check out these 10 vegan breakfast cereals to start your day.
