Workers at a Kellogg Co. plant in Ohio are looking to unionize -- representing a potential new labor headache for the maker of Rice Krispies and Eggo waffles.

The Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco, and Grain Millers International Union, known as the BCTGM, filed a petition for representation with the National Labor Relations Board on behalf of workers at the plant on Tuesday. The facility, located in Zanesville, Ohio, makes faux meat products under Kellogg’s MorningStar Farms label.
