People are ticked that they can't find this favorite cereal Chron 1/31/2021 This box is about to become a rare find at your local grocery store. Fans of Grape-Nuts are about to blow their tops because they can’t find their favorite cereal. A nation-wide shortage of the Post Consumer Brand’s popular high-fiber cereal has led to wide-spread panic among consumers who have a penchant for its earthy flavor and gravelly texture. A message on Post’s website acknowledges the current difficulties in locating Grape-Nuts, which, by the way, contains neither grapes nor nuts, and offers its apologies to customers who are feeling the strain. Created by the company’s founder himself, C.W. Post, in 1897, Grape-Nuts has been regularly enjoyed by generations of consumers who enjoy being regular.
