About Grape Nuts
Grape-Nuts is one of America's most iconic breakfast cereals, created in 1897 by C.W. Post, a former patient of the famous Battle Creek Sanitarium who was inspired to create health-focused foods to rival those of Dr. John Harvey Kellogg. With over 125 years of heritage, Grape-Nuts remains a beloved choice for those seeking a nutritious, satisfying start to the day. Despite its curious name, Grape-Nuts contains neither grapes nor nuts - the name reportedly came from C.W. Post's belief that "grape sugar" (glucose) formed during baking, combined with the cereal's distinctively nutty flavour. Made from whole grain wheat flour and malted barley flour, the unique double-baking process creates incredibly crunchy, dense nuggets that are virtually impossible to spoil. Grape-Nuts has a remarkable history of adventure. Its lightweight, compact, and incredibly shelf-stable nature made it the food of choice for expeditions - including the 1953 Mount Everest ascent by Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay, who took Grape-Nuts for efficient, nutritious energy as they became the first climbers to reach the summit. It was also a component of World War II jungle rations. Compare Grape-Nuts prices across UK supermarkets with Grocefully.
