Sugar Frosted Alpha-Bits Cereal from China
Sugar Frosted Alpha-Bits Cereal is made from semolina-based letter-shaped cereals that are roasted and frosted with beet sugar for a kids' breakfast. It falls under tariff item 1904.10.90 as a prepared food obtained by the swelling or roasting of cereals, not elsewhere specified. The product's wheat content is below the 25% threshold, so it is not classified under the wheat-specific sibling items.
