Can This Breakfast Cereal Help Save the Planet?
- js2 8y agoThere's actually more regular wheat in this cereal than Kernza. "We want to scale this and be able to find it on any grocery store, sitting on the same shelves" alongside every other cereal put out by General Mills' Cascadian Farm brand, Comings says. "You can start to be part of the solution to climate change by eating a cereal, which is just so lovely." Sigh. I guess you have to start somewhere. The Land Institute at least acknowledges the scope of the problem: "Our goal is not for it to be a small-scale, niche thing," says Lee DeHaan. "We have landscape-scale problems," and to make a real impact, perennial grains need to cover the landscape.
