This is by no means a full list (there are millions of cereals out there!) but hopefully a help to give you an idea of the iron that is added to cereals. There may also be naturally occurring iron present in cereals manufacturers do not always monitor these amounts – those noted as unfortified/do not fortify have no Iron added, however there could be iron in them that has occurred naturally.
We had a very mixed response when we approached the makers of cereals, some explaining that they do not fortify any of their cereals, some willingly offering the information and others advising to check individual packets. The same with the companies websites, some packed full of information, others not so much!

There is naturally occurring iron in some of their plant ingredients, such as oats, but the exact levels of iron depend on the specific cereal recipe. This does change over time, so we could only give readings as a guide – for up to date iron content, we would recommend individuals contact Jordans directly. [email protected]However in the meantime, here are some current examples:• Our Organic Porridge has approx. 3mg of iron per 100g• LS Almond and Hazelnut Granola approx. 2.7mg/100g• Country Crisp with Strawberries has around 2.5mg of iron per 100g (which is similar to many other varieties in the Country Crisp range because of the oat content). • The highest iron value across the UK Country Crisp recipes is Country Crisp with dark chocolate at approx. 4.3mg/100g Sainsbury’s Wholewheat Biscuits Cereal 4.5mg (per 2 biscuits) Granola, Raisin, Nut & Honey Unfortified Swiss Style Muesli, No Added Salt & Sugar Unfortified Wholegrain Malties Cereal 5.6mg (40g serving) Fruit, Nut & Seed Muesli Unfortified Multigrain Hoops Cereal 4.2mg (30g serving) Wholegrain Bran Flakes 2.1mg (30g serving) 50% Fruity Muesli Unfortified Cornflakes 2.1mg (30g serving) Wholegrain Fruit & Fibre 2.8mg (40g serving) Balance Cereal 4.2mg (30g serving) Balance With Red Fruit Cereal 4mg (30g serving) Balance Flakes Honey & Oats 3.5mg (30g serving) Rice Pops 4.2mg (30g serving) Choco Hazelnut Squares Cereal 1.2mg (30g serving) Granola, Strawberry Unfortified Granola, Tropical Unfortified Simply Granola Unfortified Raspberry & Yogurt Crisp Cereal Unfortified Maple & Pecan Crisp Cereal Unfortified Choco Hoops Cereal 2.1mg (30g serving) Granola, SO Organic Unfortified Frosted Flakes Cereal 2.1mg (30g serving) Honey Hoops Cereal 4.2mg (30g serving) Granola, Berries Unfortified Cornflakes, SO Organic Unfortified Honey Nut Cornflakes 2.1mg (30g serving) Puffed Wheat Cereal Unfortified Nutty Muesli Unfortified Swiss Style Muesli Unfortified Choco Rice Pops 3.3mg (30g portion) Triple Chocolate Crisp Unfortified Deliciously Free From Berry Granola Unfortified Deliciously Free From Cornflakes 4.6mg (30g serving) Deliciously Free From Rice Pops 4.8mg (30g serving) Deliciously Free From Choco Rice Pops 4.2mg (30g serving) Nutty Low Sugar Granola Unfortified Free From Raisin & Nut Granola Unfortified Berry Low Sugar Granola Unfortified Tesco Wheat Biscuits Cereal 4.6mg (2 biscuits) Pillows Chocolate Nut Cereal 3.0mg (30g serving) Pillows With Milk Chocolate Filling 3.0mg (30g serving) Bran Flakes 3.1mg (30g serving) Multigrain Hoops Cereal 4.2mg (30g serving) Honey Nut Cornflakes info unavailable Fruit & Fibre Cereal 4.1mg (40g serving) Frosted Flakes Cereal 4.2mg (30g serving) Malt Wheats Cereal 4.8mg (40g serving) Cornflakes 4.2mg (30g serving) Rice Snaps Cereal info unavailable advises High in Iron Choco Snaps 4.2mg (30g serving) Superberry Granola Unfortified No Added Sugar Swiss Style Muesli Unfortified Fruit & Nut Granola Unfortified Strawberry Crisp Unfortified Tesco Choco Hoops 2.3mg (30g serving) Low Fat Special Flake Cereal 4.2mg (30g serving) Honey Hoops 3mg (30g serving) Special Flake Fruit 4mg (30g serving) Fruit Nut Muesli Unfortified 50% Fruit Muesli Unfortified Crunchy Cookie Cereal 2.6mg (30g serving) Nut & Maple Crisp Unfortified Tropical Fruits Granola Unfortified Sultana Bran Cereal 3mg (per 40g serving) High Fibre Bran Cereal Unfortified Chocolate Crisp (Granola Clusters) Unfortified Honey Nut Chocolate Clusters Unfortified Multigrain Boulders 2.1mg (30g serving) Honey Nut Clusters Unfortified Strawberry & Raspberry Granola info unavailable Honey, Oats & Almonds Special Cereal 3.5mg (30g serving) Swiss Style Muesli Unfortified Nuts And Seeds Muesli Unfortified High Protein Granola Unfortified Choco Malt Wheats Unfortified Grains & Seeds Granola Unfortified Multigrain Meteors 0.8mg (30g serving) Multigrain Cosmos 0.8mg (30g serving) Lidl Lidl advised “Vitamins and minerals are only added to certain select products, such as multivitamin drinks (vitamins), sports drinks, meat substitute products (vitamin B12), plant-based dairy substitutes (calcium), margarine and iodised table salt.
