Kellogg's Special K Products - Cereals and Bars

Kellogg’s Special K has been around for more than 50 years, providing dieters with a delicious breakfast of crunchy rice and wheat flakes. And to this day, the name Special K is synonymous with diets and weight loss and is still mainly targeted at those looking to lose weight or keep their figure trim.

However, Kellogg's Special K is far too tasty to be eaten just by dieters. Children and adults of all ages have also discovered the unique taste of Special K which can be eaten as a snack at any time of day, not only breakfast.

There's even more to enjoy now because there are so many varieties to choose from. This is also great news for those following the Special K Challenge or the Special K Cereal Diet.

Special K is quite similar in calories when compared with other wheat or rice based cereals. However, it is fortified with a wide range of important vitamins and iron, so the dieter isn’t losing out on valuable nutrients while cutting calories.

Here’s a look at some of the family of Special K cereals and snack bars available in the UK right now:
