shredded wheat

Fibrous breakfast biscuit

Shredded wheat is a breakfast cereal made from whole wheat that has been cooked, formed into layered strands, and baked into biscuit-shaped pieces.

The cereal has a distinctive pillow shape with a woven texture and is typically eaten with milk, often sweetened since the cereal itself contains no added sugar.

Large rectangular biscuits are the classic form, though bite-sized versions are now common.
