Start (Multi-Grain Start) was a breakfast cereal which was produced by Kellogg's in the UK from the mid-1980s until 2018. Start was promoted as a cereal designed for improving sports performance. It was made from wheat, corn and oats and a single bowlful was said to provide a third of a human's daily vitamin RDA. It was suitable for vegetarians but not for wheat allergy sufferers. Start was discontinued in 2018, yet it is still sold in Asda as of August 2020.^{[citation needed]}
