Last year the Food and Drug Administration made itself fodder for late-night comedy when it warned the manufacturer of Cheerios against boasting about some of the cereal's health benefits. "We have determined [Cheerios] is promoted for conditions that cause it to be a drug," the FDA said in a letter to General Mills.

It's funny but scientists make claims all the time about the benifits of Coffee and red wine. I guess it's a good thing the companies that sell them already have an in with the FDA.

In China one of the most popular brands was/is Great Health. Cigs are supposed to be good for all that ails you.
