Generalmills Reviews

I wish they took their commitment to

I wish they took their commitment to providing safe food more seriously GMO corn and artificial colors and flavors should not be in products served to kids when we know they contribute to diseases and allergies and adhd And how can they justify putting healthier ingredients in products for other countries But I m the USA they load it up with slow killers Shameful

Product Recall

On the 19th May 2020 I also responded to a product recall after much going and growing they instructed me to dispose of the product and said that you would send me vouchers to replace the loss Over 2 months has passed and to date I still haven t received any vouchers I m not asking for compensation I am asking them to simply replace the tins of sweetcorn they told me to dispose This shouldn t be this complicated for such a large company

Nature Valley Granola Bars Complain

I ve been buying Nature Valley granola bars for a long time without complaints but i bought 3 days ago and I found a piece of black plastic gum in one of the granola bars and it was very unpleasant You have to have more safety when processing these products I hope General Mills read these reviews to improve quallity satsifaction and safety PD I Never buy them again

Found a piece of fiberglass in my kids

Found a piece of fiberglass in my kids cereal one day I called them about it and they asked me to send them proof of purchase and the scan code so they could refund me the 2 00 I spent on it Horrible quality control from these guys Watch out for them

I purchased a pack of 10 Old El Paso

I purchased a pack of 10 Old El Paso Tortillas from a New World Supermarket in New Zealand and when removing them from the packet they were so pressed together that everyone of them tore and were of no use in making tacos I returned to the supermarket and replaced them with another packet of the same brand but they too were all stuck together So I swapped them for another brand of tortillas and they were perfect I phoned General Mills to make a complaint but it was outside of their office hours and invited me to leave my name and phone number at the end of the taped message and they would call me back But at the end of the taped message the call ended without me being given the opportunity to leave my contact details and the reason for calling So the next day I phoned General Mills again and the Customer Service women made me feel like it was my fault that the tortillas had stuck together She said that all I needed to do was to microwave them for 10 seconds to loosen them Well with all the other brands of tortillas I ve bought I ve never experienced this issue and so knew nothing about microwaving them if they stick together And she obviously assumes that everyone owns a microwave The General Mills Customer Service rep said the tortillas were sticking together because they no longer use Palm Oil Well the Tortillas I ended up replacing the Old El Paso ones for Pams used Canola Oil and they didn t stick together In fact they seperated perfectly No kind gesture of a coupon with which to make another purchase of General Mills food products was offered from a company with revenue of 17 63 billion USD in 2020 in way of compensation for my troubles Disgraceful service and I will make a point of never buying from General Mills again and will also advise people to also follow suit They do not deserve the business when they really give the impression that they don t care for their customers wellbeing

Plastic baggie baked into bat

On May 22 my wife bit into a Nature Valley Sweet and Salty peanut bar and found a plastic baggie baked into the bar We contacted them immediately and as if June 4th have received no response When contacting General Mills calls are forwarded to a third party call center in the Phillipines where I am told We will send you coupons I would like to know what was in that plastic bag before General Mills added it to the recipe I was a pharmacist for over 30 years and if someone said there was something wrong with their prescription I would stop whatever I was doing and address the issue Apparently General Mills doesn t hold themselves to that high a professional standard
