Multi-Bran Chex
From: General Mills
Introduced in 1990


This cereal was described in early ads as "Four Bran Goodness in one Crunchy Taste... Oat Bran, Wheat Bran, Rice Bran and Corn Bran." Mult-Bran Chex was originally produced by Ralston.

A clever magazine campaign in 1991 told consumers that "If you want to eat a bran cereal that tastes like a bran cereal...", you should eat the page from the magazine in which the ads appeared. Otherwise, you should try Multi-Bran Chex.

In 1994, the first seven ingredients listed on the side panel were milled yellow corn, oat bran, wheat bran, brown sugar, sugar, rice bran and corn bran.

In 2011, these were the first seven ingredients: whole grain corn, corn meal, sugar, wheat bran, corn bran, rice bran and salt.

Company Description: Officially created in 1928, General Mills traces it's history back to the 1860's and the ownership of two flour mills. Since then, the company has become the world's 6th largest food company - marketing to over 100 countries... Read on and see all cereals from General Mills

    I'm so SAD! I've known this was out for a while - like MANY years but I keep hoping every time I go down the cereal aisle I will see it! LEGITIMATELY my favorite breakfast cereal of all time! I would eat it dry or with other cereals! If someone just happened to have like 5 or 20 boxes I will legit buy them for whatever!

    Why has this been discontinued? It makes no sense and the other Chex are terrible.

    General Mills, you killed your BEST cereal ever! Multi Bran Chex was my favorite cereal on the whole store shelf! I just want them to know that they thoroughly earned my wrath when they callously discontinued it, and I've vowed not to buy another box of General Mill's Chex ever again until they BRING MULTI BRAN CHEX BACK.
