WK Kellogg Co had the opportunity to join Nutrition News Update last week – a conference bringing together leading dietitians who help shape the conversation about healthy choices in the media. Our Chief Wellbeing and Sustainable Business Officer, Sarah Ludmer, and her team shared how we’re working to dispel common myths about cereal and highlight its role as a modern, health-forward choice. Cereal delivers simple ingredients, protein, fiber and essential nutrients – and we’re committed to helping people see cereal the way we do: as a food that is relevant, nutritious and worth celebrating.

🌽 Corn Queen Meets Corn Flakes 🌽 At WK Kellogg Co, we believe in the power of simplicity – simple ingredients, simple joys and simple moments that bring people together. That’s why our partnership with country artist Hailey Whitters felt like a perfect fit from the start. When Hailey reached out about her upcoming Corn Queen album – an homage to her nickname and Midwestern upbringing – we knew there was magic in the making. Together, we dreamed up a limited-edition Corn Queen x Corn Flakes box, celebrating her heritage and our iconic cereal. Our partnership with Hailey has gone far beyond the box – from giveaways and behind-the-scenes photoshoots to a full social media takeover. And the response? Simply incredible. Just like Corn Flakes, this collaboration proves that when you keep things simple and authentic, you create something unforgettable.

Protein and fiber are real nutrition superheroes, and cereal brings them together in one simple bowl. Progressive Grocer explores how these two nutrients work better together to support wellness. It’s just another reason to feel good about the classic combination of cereal and milk. A bowl of cereal with milk delivers the same amount of protein as an egg, but even better because it’s also a good source of fiber – making it a powerful and satisfying way to fuel your day. Many of our cereals offer 5 grams or more of protein on their own, and we have more than 140 options that are a good source of fiber – a strong combination that helps support fullness and digestive health.

🥣 Wellness doesn’t have to be complicated. Just ask Peloton Instructor Cody Rigsby. Cody recently teamed up with Kashi to say “bye” to complicated wellness trends and “hi” to the simple nourishment of Kashi. In a recent USA TODAY feature spotlighting Cody’s approach to wellness, the article captures a sentiment we wholeheartedly support: “He's "over" the whiplash of wellness trends, and wants to set an example of simple ways for reliable results that make us feel good. He's taking this mentality into his partnership with Kashi, leaning away from habits like crash diets, feeling guilty about carbs and restrictive meal plans, and embracing intuitive, mindful routines. A bowl of simple cereal encapsulates that desire for ease, he says.” Through our collaboration with Cody and Kashi, we’re celebrating a more balanced approach to wellness.
