Kellogg Co. created a $4 million fund as part of a settlement to a lawsuit that alleged the company falsely advertised that its Frosted Mini-Wheats cereal improved kids’ attentiveness, memory, and other cognitive functions to a degree not supported by competent clinical evidence, according a website set up to handle claims.
Those who purchased the cereal between Jan. 28, 2008, and Oct. 1, 2009, may seek reimbursement for $5 per box, up to $15.
Claims are due by Nov. 28.
Kellogg stands by its advertising and denies it did anything wrong.
