What's so 'fruity' about Fruit Loops?

Question

Where does the fruit come in? Is there even fruit in them?

Answer 1

its all sugar and dye and other unhealthy things

Answer 2

its suppost to taste like fruit... i guess.

Answer 3

They contain No Fruit, hence the spelling:  "Froot Loops".  It's illegal to state (or allude) that a product contains an ingredient when it doesn't.

Answer 4

I Think They Just Smell Good

Answer 5

This is what we call a marketing ploy to make people believe that they are eating something healthy - but they really aren't! There is no real fruit in this cereal at all, it is just full of refined carbs & sugar and lots of both!!! I would advise against consuming this cereal & any others that resemble this cereal in the slightest.

Answer 6

No real fruit, so to speak, but "natural flavors" come from fruit.  I imagine it all comes from the artificial flavors.  This stuff is really bad for you.

It has no fruit....just that the food coloring in them makes them all colorful and "fruity". Does that make sense? lol
