The Environmental Working Group (EWG) conducted a second round of testing on some of your favorite cereals and the tests revealed levels of glyphosate in the food. Several oat-based breakfast bars and cereals tested positive for this substance, which is also the same ingredient used in Round-Up. Actually, 26 of the 28 items tested had higher levels of glyphosate than what is considered safe for kids.

Some of the products include:

• Quaker Simply Granola Oats, Honey, Raisins & Almonds
• Nature Valley Granola Protein Oats 'n Honey
• Quaker Dinosaur Eggs, Brown Sugar, Instant Oatmeal
• Cheerios Toasted Whole Grain Oat Cereal
• Lucky Charms Frosted Toasted Oat Cereal with Marshmallows
