Kellogg's Chocos, a popular breakfast cereal. The video, posted on Instagram by user @cummentwala_69, garnered attention as it showcased worms nestled within the chocolatey granules of the cereal.
In the video, the uploader humorously questions if the presence of worms signifies an «extra dose of protein» provided by the company.
