Nesquik, also known as Nestlé Nesquik and Nesquik Cereal, is a family of breakfast cereals made by the Swiss company Nestlé, and based on the popular Nesquik product line. Nesquik is marketed by Cereal Partners under the Nestlé brand worldwide except in the US where it is marketed under the General Mills brand.
Nesquik Cereal was first introduced in the US in 1999.[1] The cereal consists of small, 1 centimetre spheres of chocolate cereal. Nesquik Cereal is most similar to General Mills' Cocoa Puffs; it is also their most direct competitor. Nesquik Cereal is made with whole-grains and is thus a whole-grain cereal.
The cereal is currently available in 43 countries.[2] In 2012, Nestlé discontinued its distribution of Nesquik Cereal from the US market for reasons unstated by the company.
