anthropos Posted July 30, 2005 Posted July 30, 2005 I read this book titled "Know it All" by Ed Zotti and I found this question. When a cereal says "fortified with iron", does that mean it has pieces of metal floating around in it. To my disbelief, it is true! The book says if "you were to run a powerful magnet through such cereal, tiny black specks will stick to the magnet." These are iron filings. Um...I bought this book from Kinokuniya, so I think it shouldn't be kidding. Is it true? The idea sounds really weird though.
