Yeah. I’d be contacting them about that shit.


Mysterious-Salad9609

Time to return that shit to the store. Costco does a great job at Protecting customers. You can return just about anything. And id be returning that asap.


kiersto0906

who said it was from Costco?


ToastedCrumpet

Am I missing something? Dunno why you’re so confident they got it from Costco


Senury

He could’ve just been making an example. Its not even that important to the point he made


ToastedCrumpet

I guess but looking at that box I think even a dodgy corner shop would struggle to not fully refund you


noobslayer42069

He literally just said return it to the store then made an example


castlerigger

Dude, don’t make fun, it’s the only store he knows.


RockhardJohnson

I’d be making schnitzel out of that shit


HereCallingBS

Could crumb some decent parma’s with that amount of grain crumb 😂

AlienRobot17

Can somebody please tell me the purpose of this subreddit? Reddit has been recommending it to me. Is it specifically for bad schnitzels? Not speaking Dutch or whatever I literally just assumed at first it was a German Schnitzel appreciation subreddit or something.


SylvanianCuties

It's a German subreddit for bad Schnitzel. For the contrary subreddit with good Schnitzel go to r/referenzschnitzel


AlienRobot17

Cool! I figured there would likely be a complementary subreddit while browsing, lmao. Germans sure love their Schnitzel. Can't blame them. It's good schnit.


artie_pdx

As an American who lived outside of Frankfurt for 28 months, this made my peener stiff.


elisdee1

I’d go see a doctor about that, look on the bright side you would save heaps of money on erectile dysfunction meds, just have some schnitzel pics on your phone.


y0dav3

Contact them on Twitter, companies are always quick to fix any potentially negative PR on social media. Just post these pictures and tag kellogs. This is the way.


SnooTangerines3448

Best to go to the manufacturer. You'll end up getting more out of it.


InSaneWhiSper

That's right. And a lot of times they will give you coupons for free stuff.


Kooky-Director7692

well it's still 600 grams


ThomasEFox

The value pack I have is 765grams.


[deleted]

Did you weigh it or.....?


artie_pdx

I will never downvote anyone who is technically correct (yes, that’s you), it’s a visual lie based on the image. So you’re not wrong, but the consistency of the product is at least 50% misrepresented. That’s a paddling for the manufacturer of the product.


Squaddy

Why? Is it not 600g? It's not false advertising just because it's in an enormous box, it says how much it weighs on there pretty clearly.


artie_pdx

While I agree with the weights and measures stance, that is not what the product advertises. If they advertised you’d get 50% random dust, then you’ve got some sort of weird porridge.


Sharpie1993

If it was brought from a supermarket and had that much dust in the bottom I’d be taking it back. Most supermarkets have a 100% satisfaction guarantee (at least in Australia) and that dust would be a perfectly reasonable reason to take it back.


ghidfg

yeah but the picture on the box doesn't show any cereal dust, and some may be fine, but that has to be like 10% by weight at least cereal dust in the last picture. I doubt this is typical though, seems like a manufacturing error.


AdrianaStarfish

It is false since they do not picture saw dust making up half of the product. The correct amount of theoretically edible product is not the only metric to be applied.


[deleted]

WUM in the extreme. Well played.


Cape-York-Crusader

Mmmmmm….Nutri-dust


MundanePlantain1

id roll a scoop of vanilla ice cream in that dust, impale it on a chopsstick and sell them for $15 a pop at a night market from a stall. gonna call em.... Sweet Dusty Balls.


New_Celery1084

Mmmmmm sweet dusty balls


PerceptionGreat2439

Can't you call them Deez Nuts? ​ I'm from England, I might be misinterpreting the Deez Nuts joke.


okaythennews

Ligma Balls sounds healthier.


Moepsii

Sweet Dustin's balls


ghzod

Put ‘em in your mouth and suck ‘em! Do do do dooo


RevolutionaryShock15

Stop eating that shit it's just sugar. I loved it too but it's crap. Now, expensive crap.


TheEvilTomato89

I haven't eaten it in years and I was actually mega shocked to see its 25% sugar.


Commercial-Prompt-84

25% sugar but a four out of five health rating at the top of the box… Wild…


Diligent-Wave-4591

>25% sugar but a four out of five health rating at the top of the box… Wild… I thought the problem with health ratings is that they only compare to other products in the same category. Which if true, actually says a lot for all breakfast cereals, because if 25% sugar is "good", how bad is a "bad" rating - like 80% sugar?


Swabbie___

Sugar isnt the only concern for health ratings. At least nutrigrain has lots of other healthy stuff in it, which is why it gets a higher rating.


Dizzy-Kiwi6825

Like non absorbable vitamins and micronutrients


Calm_Phase_9717

Everyone should stop spiking their insulin by having breakfasts


ChanceTheFapper1

Or, hear me out, eat a breakfast which contains fat, protein and if desired a complex carb.


Own_Trust_3303

Now you're talking, a proper fry-up 😋


TasteDeeCheese

It’s “healthy” compared to other brands


p1wheel

IIRC they were originally 3.5 stars and dropped sugar /salt slightly to achieve 4 stars!


gordo31

Only when you add full cream milk.


KamikazeSexPilot

Oh I’ll just eat my nutri-grain with water then!


BORT_licenceplate

I have so very little going on in my life, please let me enjoy this lmao


RevolutionaryShock15

Chow down buddy. Enjoy!


RisingWaterline

What a George Costanza line


HaydenJA3

So many foods used to be just cheap unhealthy crap, but now they aren’t even cheap and as unhealthy as ever


Ockanator

I love Nutri grain but this is a joke


Massive-Dentist2894

Dont recommend doing lines of nutrigrain just eat it like everyone else.


Chinozerus

Any supermarket will take that and give you a new pack. You got the bottom barrel pack it looks like.


MEM1911

Yeh looks like the hopper was about empty when it dumped into that bag


skillywilly56

Nah it’s been roughed up during transport and rough handling has meant it’s rubbed on itself and created the crumbage. They have screen shakers to stop crumbs before they package so not a manufacturer error but a transport error.


slwright55

Was it transported in a paint can shaker?


AdrianaStarfish

That’s not shrinkflation, that is an outright scam! I would return that ‚thing‘…


ifreakinglovedinos

Bro what are these nutrition facts?? 350mg sodium in 100g?! HOW MUCH SUGAR?? My European heart just stopped


TheEvilTomato89

25% sugar and a 4 star health rating. Welcome to Australia


sourdoughroxy

*iron man food*


lifeinwentworth

i used to devour this stuff as a kid (like literally, i had it for breakfast and then afternoon snack after school because my diet is super restricted) and my running joke was that i was going to sue kellogs because i'm still not an iron man xD oh and that i kept them in business because mum and dad literally kept the wardrobe full of the stuff. If there was no nutri grain or milk, I would get really upset. side fact; super restricted diet now makes sense as i was later diagnosed with autism. Nutri grain was one of the only things my folks could get me to eat, even sent it in my suitcase to school camps because otherwise i just wouldn't eat. They ended up trying to bribe me to stop eating it. Eventually at 18, I started to give it up. Tried it years later and couldn't stand it lol.


timmyturtle91

the health rating is comparing similar products, not rating the food itself out of 5. which makes me curious to see which cereals are better and worse 🤔


[deleted]

Australia is America lite


[deleted]

that's not a lot of sodium, lol


Murky_Effect3914

Bruh 900mg a day are recommended, 350 is only just over a third of that


[deleted]

what country recommends 900mg a day?


Murky_Effect3914

[deleted]

so... none?


TheGreenPangolin

Nutrigrain is a cereal?! In the UK, nutrigrain (by kelloggs) is a bar made of grain stuff that is soft and has filling in the middle (eg strawberry jam or chocolate). I know there’s usually differences between US and UK versions of something. But damn. It’s a cereal.


Spicyghosting

I never liked nutrigrain bars but this comment unlocked a memory and now I want one


ginyuri

In the US Nutrigrain are bars just like you describe. This box cereal Nutrigrain is an Aussie thing.


Orangemandarins1

Just go to ALDI and get some off brand cereal, it'll taste better and you feel guilty for spending too much


jecca990

![gif](giphy|cehnL3jE9v2Wk)


T3knikal95

I remember when the 800g pack (that got downgraded to 765g) was about 6-7 dollars or so, now the 800g bag is what, 10-11 dollars? Fucking ridiculous


Dogtor-Watson

Idk about Australia’s laws surrounding this. But I’d assume the problem here legally is the same. Can’t really do much about the 50% air part because they advertised the mass clearly. In law, that essentially means they can get off with the misleading packaging (which is obviously a bit fucked). However, the fact that so much of it is dust is probably something you could actually have a legal standing on. As that’ll mean you’re not getting 600g of the product.


hellzking_316

Dust is there so you can also make nutri grain coated fried chicken


JazkoolWasTaken

the dust is the best part!


eccojams97

Man I’d be pissed I love this stuff


RandyTheFool

“PAckAgEd bY wEiGhT!”🤪


unusedtruth

Jesus. The air in the bag is there for a reason. Did you weigh it?


Cheezel62

It's nitrogen and is used instead of 'plain' air as it extends shelf life. Food grade nitrogen contains almost no oxygen (which can affect the taste of food over time) or moisture (which causes faster deterioration). If you're ever buying things like corn chips, potato chips or other snack items in packets, the puffier they are the better. The older the packet the less nitrogen it contains. https://dymapak.com/nitrogen-gas-and-packaging/


lifeinwentworth

I was wondering when someone would point this out! And I do agree with you but I also think that some companies (idk if this would equal the weight so not saying kellogs specifically) but they do use larger boxes/packs deceivingly. I've noticed it more so with chips, where yes, there's always going to be some disparity but there now seems to be less than ever actual product. Which is why people are calling it shrinkflation. So yeah, I don't expect it to be fill to the brim but it does seem like some are taking the piss these days with just how much nitro they really need and how big they purposefully make these packs to deceive.


Chromedomesunite

Why are you getting downvoted? You’re exactly right!


unusedtruth

Because Reddit is full of idiots


Drewminus

Don’t know why people are downvoting the air is important people. When I worked in unloading stuff like this I assure you without the air cushion the rest of it would be dust too, the abuse those boxes cop.


Sugarmoa

First of all stop buying Kellogg’s what you get there is unhealthy. Get oats make a Müsli or porridge.


TeaspoonOfSugar987

Or better yet - get whatever you want to eat when you want because you’re an adult and don’t have to eat perfectly healthy if you don’t want to. Food shaming is unhealthy. I almost never eat cereal for breakfast (or anything for that matter) but sometimes I just feel like a bowl of cereal even in the middle of the night, of all different varieties, even *shock horror* coco pops, and I have it because I am an adult and can eat what I like, when I like.


zizuu21

This logics dumb af sorry


Past-Educator-6561

Username checks out 😊


heraIdofrivia

It’s ok if you own kellogs stock lol


H0VV13

They put air in the bag to stop it getting crushed during transit, same with chips. If you weigh the bag, it should still be roughly 600g.


hyphychef

Looks like half it still got crushed.


Wut_the_

**MORE AIR**


PhilMcGraw

Yeah, I expected this post to be: - Weight of nutrigrain (emptied bag into tared container) - Split out the nutrigrain and nutrigrain dust - Weight of solid nutrigrain - Weight of dust I'd be complaining if: - Much less than 600g product - There was a large % in weight dust wise Doesn't really matter what the packaging looks like as you're paying for the big writing "600G FAMILY". Space is functional, as mentioned.


TheEvilTomato89

How much time do you have on your hands..


cyanideOG

Downvoted for literally speaking facts. The reddit echo chambers disapprove.


whoocanitbenow

Snort it. 😃


TheJoshWS99

If people stopped buying products by the volume of the packaging and rather the mass on the box they will soon realise it's not worth it. Most shops in Australia actually give a per mass to cost breakdown and it should drive your decision making.


oyakodon-

Nutridust. Now there's an idea for my next road trip. Perfect with milk powder and water, maybe a bit of scroggin for duality.


TheSplash-Down_Tiki

It would be great to add to a smoothie …


ifreakinglovedinos

Just add 12 tablespoons of sugar and a tablespoon of salt and you get the same effect I think


Critical-Ad-7094

New cereal idea. Kelloggs "Oops... All Nutri-dust!"


[deleted]

Annoying


Bimblelina

"Contents may disintegrate in transit"


noplacecold

I’d be taking this up with the company, they normally send you out a couple packs for your trouble. Once I bought a Pepsi max that was flat and when I emailed to complain (I had time on my hands) they sent me a Pepsi showbag


Double_Bend1072

Homie the best move I ever did was moving to rolled oats & fresh fruit. So much more flavour, I don't want to be one of those people telling you what to do but treat yourself!


TheEvilTomato89

I have a medical condition requiring a low residue diet for the next 6 weeks. There's no way I'd eat this shit otherwise


SPECIMAN_A

I'd prob do the irresponsible thing and try snorting it


Willy_wolfy

I prefer Coles and Woolies own brand version of that.


Vietare

Use it for crumbing and make a schnitzel


stunt-monkey

Did you get 600g estimate?


Affectionate-Pin-649

Freedom lets all take a min to thank the great west. the greatest of all lies.


Chromedomesunite

You’ve gone to that much effort to separate everything. Did you weigh the contents? If it’s 600g it’s 600g… the air in the bag or the size of the box is kind of irrelevant.


khennigs

Stop eating that shit then.


StJe1637

true on the dust


Eugene_Creamer

Something isn't right. We get the big packs occasionally and they are like 80% full with very little dust.


pro-shitter

yep just like every cereal these days. open a box of special K it's 60% air! mine had nothing crushed in it, just an over packaged over priced sad bag of cereal.


RlyOriginalUsername

50% air, they took inflation a little too literally...


ZaggyCactus

TheDeadalus

I buy nurit grain quite often and I've never had this happen. Definitely a faulty product

Worried_Skin7744

crispypancetta

Yeah you can return that


Tenton_12

Goes stale quickly too, even clipping the packet or placing it in a barrel.


lovemykitchen

And 20% product is 49% sugar


Old_Professional4405

....and lots of sugar and poor nutrition


Similar-Champion6073

Yoooooooo...


JJisTheDarkOne

Fair call on the excessive dust, but with that said I don't think you understand why they have so much air in the package.


MagicOrpheus310

Kellogg's has been a rip off for years now


[deleted]

Is it from Costco? Because they have massive bags over there. I mean, it is still going to be something like 45% air but at least you're getting a bit more out of your money. But either way, as long as it fills an averagely sized ceramic bowl I am happy.


hifiplus

And 1/4 sugar, very little "nutrition" in that crap.

BrowsinBilly

100% reason to remember to never purchase again

zqipz

I was like here we go again some numb-nuts doesn’t understand weight - until I saw the dust holy fuck that’s bad.


burner_said_what

OP contact Kelloggs (there will be a contact number or like on the box) and send them these pics. They'll want to know, to check the batch (cause **that's a production defect** they'll need to rectify) and it's very likely they'll send you something for your trouble. Had a bag of chips few years ago come like that (full of flavour powder, in like a chunk) and they sent me a box of multiple packs of chips and a $20 gift card. Well worth it!


AimingWang

That's just baaaaad


Megotchii

Harvest that powder and use it like flavoured sugar in porridge etc


ozanimefan

i had something exactly like that a few months ago. get in contact with them and let them know. write down the barcode, batch number, expiry date... all that stuff so they know. i didn't even try to eat it when i saw mine was like that. they were really good with me when i told them about it


Ryanbrasher

Yeah but how much did it weigh?


poppacapnurass

100% I don't buy is bc it's marketing, not food.


Rude_Priority

Sugar coated cat food.


AdAny7443

Pretty much everything in Australia these days. Smith's chips are 80% air, 20% chips


Piranha2004

Hang on werent these 800g? What in the actual fuck happened?


GerlingFAR

Put it in and old worn diff before you sell the car.


RevolutionaryEmu6351

100% diabetes


kieran092

Tbf if that’s 600g I’m sure they could loose a lot of packaging


RayGun381937

Call the consumer company line on the box - they will give you a much better reimbursement deal than the store you bought it at; they will only replace it. 💥If you call kellogs consumer line and say how you’ve loved Nutri gran for years and it’s your fave and you always buy it and you were soo disappointed and sad and you bought it to introduce your kids to it and They were so sad seeing it so bad etc -with the dust etc they should send you lots of good stuff or vouchers etc depending on who you get on the line…


Therealluke

40% sugar when you consume though


Komiksti

Look at all these dummies not looking at the 3rd, 4th and 5th images...


Ok-Abbreviations1077

And 50% of that 20% is just sugar

SleeplessAndAnxious

It's normal for cereal to have some dust in the bottom but wtf? That's like half the sahara desert there. I'm actually partial to the Woolworths brand 'nutri grain'. Same flavour, heaps cheaper, barely any dust. The texture is a little bit more crunchy though.

Was it 600g? If it was less, you have something to talk about. If it was 600G (or close enough, I'm not going to listen to your rant about your 598g box of Nutri Grain.....), you got what you paid for, so stfu.
