Advocacy group No More Glyphosate NZ (NMGNZ) has published an open letter to food giant Sanitarium after independent testing detected glyphosate residues in selected Weet-Bix products.
According to the group, testing found measurable levels in several cereals, including Weet-Bix Multi-Grain at 0.198mg/kg and Weet-Bix Gluten Free at 3.9mg/kg. While the organisation acknowledged the results may fall within current legal food safety limits, it questioned whether compliance standards alone are sufficient for products marketed around health, wholefoods and wellbeing.
The letter argues Sanitarium has built decades of public trust through messaging focused on nutrition, natural ingredients and healthier lifestyles, and says consumers increasingly expect greater transparency around chemical residues in food. NMGNZ said the issue was not solely about legality, but about consumer expectations and corporate responsibility.
The group called on Sanitarium to disclose what measures are being taken to reduce glyphosate residues, whether suppliers are encouraged to avoid pre-harvest glyphosate use, and whether the company conducts routine residue monitoring beyond minimum regulatory requirements. It also suggested Sanitarium consider publicly releasing testing data to improve consumer confidence.
The letter comes amid growing international debate over glyphosate use in agriculture and concerns from some consumers about chemical residues in grain-based foods commonly eaten by families on a daily basis.

Feed it to the politicians
It’s not only Glyphosate, it’s also the other ingredients in NON-Kosher food items.
Compare the ingredients of Kosher items in the grocery stores versus NON-Kosher items. Read the back labels…
Kosher has very few additional chemicals and additives.
NON-Kosher is LOADED-UP with chemicals…
Can we see the Talmudic-inspired bio-chemical warfare going on here, to make us Gentiles & Goyim all sick, fat, diabetic and brain-fogged??? Throw in bio-weaponised vaccines, and you’re on your way to a speedy death via food ingrediants, chemicals, and Plandemics of simultaneous types ie Covid, Hanta, Ebola, etc.
Kosher and Halal follow the food ingredient models that have far less ingredients. Both are clearly marked, although small in labeling.
Stop buying from Zionist / Israeli food producers…
Can we please test for heavy metals also? And label gmo? Because nano technology is also very real and a grand old company like Sanitarium that has massive global market reach and big money would be a company to consider.
When will people start actually testing for this and stop calling it a conspiracy. There is an increasingly alarming list of toxins happening with food.
I would say a direct attack on our health but you know unless we test and bring it to the light how can it move from “conspiracy” to fact in the eyes of the public.
Imported wheat yes.
In NZ milling wheat ain’t senesced at ripening or the smallest fraction.
Glyph is used pre-plant to burn trash pre-drill.
Do people understand compounds are found in nature then synthetically produced? Microbes eat it up.
What about the other part of lifestyle that makes people sick?
I wouldn’t touch weetbix with the proverbial barge pole. It reminds me of particle board that has been left out in the rain too long, only less nutritious.
Sanitarium New Zealand is wholly owned by the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
The company operates as a registered charity under the New Zealand Charities Register, meaning its profits go toward the religious, educational, and community activities of the church therefore a non taxpaying entity.
