Kellogg's is due to redesign one of their cereal boxes after a racism row erupted on social media.

The box is covered in white corn pops going about their daily business - with the exception of a brown corn pop, which is a cleaner.

Most of the characters are taking part in more enjoyable pursuits; they shop, skateboard, play arcade games and take selfies.

Science fiction and fantasy writer Saladin Ahmed was shocked to discover the 'racist' drawing while having breakfast with his son.
