Grape Nuts

Dense breakfast pebbles

Grape Nuts is a breakfast cereal made of crunchy, dense nuggets of baked wheat and barley.

Despite the name, it contains neither grapes nor nuts—the origin of the name is unclear.

The cereal is known for its hard, crunchy texture: My dentist warned me about eating Grape Nuts.
