The brand started experiencing shortages in late 2020 and its Grape-Nuts Flakes cereal was also affected. The flakes should be returning to stores now and the original cereal is expected to be "fully back on store shelves" this spring, DeRock said.
Consumers USA TODAY spoke to said they can find the flakes but want the original Grape-Nuts, which the company explains in its history doesn't contain grapes or nuts but is made from wheat and barley.
Ana Sandoval, of Sacramento, California, started to wonder if the cereal was being phased out after searching for a box since December. She said she has been eating the cereal nearly every day for the last six years to help with her Mediterranean anemia.
