Unusual thing occurred this morning....I opened a new, just purchased box of Kelloggs Fruit Harvest cereal and inside was a thick white web like material. Big, it was the size of the box from side to side!! At first before I opened the package it looked like there was something in there like a coupon. There also appeared to be several cocoon like objects. I didn't inspect too closely but I have never opened a box of cereal to find something like that!!

Will have to check where this is produced and distributed. I'm saving the box....outside!!

Anyone else ever see this sort of thing???

Get it out of your house!! NOW!!! It could be rice moths, they feed on cereal products, rice, flour, etc. They can get inside of anything not sealed tight in ziploc bags or tight sealing cannisters. Once they make it inside your house it can be almost impossible to get rid of them.

Whoa, that sounds very serious. Have you tried dialing customer service at Kelloggs? Website or anything. I would notify the grocery store where you bought it too - right away in case there are more like that on the shelves.
