In this commercial it shows a boxing match between a Mini Wheat and a Cheerio. It seems unfair on the part of the Cheerio because one, the Mini Wheat was given arms and legs (since it is Kellogg's own commercial) and the Cheerio was not given any at all. Also, because the size of the Mini-Wheats was edited and increased.
At the start of the match they displayed statistics showing that "Kellogg's Frosted Mini-Wheats have double the wholegrain grams of fiber/serving as compared to the Honey Nut Cheerios which has only half the wholegrain grams of fiber/serving. Also we would like to reiterate on the fine print shown at the bottom part of the statistics:
It says "Contains 12% to 15% more of the daily value for fiber than Honey Nut Cheerios cereal. Kellogg's Frosted Mini-Wheats cereals have 5 to 6 grams of fiber (20%-24% DV) and 40g to 49g whole grain per serving; Honey Nut Cheerios cereal has 2g fiber per 28g serving (8% DV) and at least 8 grams whole grain".

Here are the actual sizes of both cereals compared to a thumb. And as you can see the Kellogg's Mini Wheats is only bigger then the Honey Nut Cheerios by about half an inch. Therefore, Kellogg's has no right to increase or edit the size of their products to make it seem bigger and more filling than others.
