name in a brokerage account) are not eligible to participate in the Plan until they become stockholders of record either by withdrawing the shares from their brokerage account and registering the shares in their own name or by enrolling in the Plan
in the same manner as a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-stockholder.</FONT> </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Participants in the Plan may elect to have the cash dividends paid on
all or a percentage of their shares of Common Stock automatically reinvested in additional shares of Common Stock. Holders of Common Stock who choose not to participate in the Plan&#146;s dividend reinvestment feature will continue to receive cash
dividends on shares of Common Stock registered in their name, as declared, by check or direct deposit. Participants may also purchase additional shares of Common Stock by making optional cash investments in accordance with the provisions of the
Plan. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Shares of Common Stock purchased by participants in the Plan may be treasury or new issue Common Stock or, at General Mills&#146; option, Common
Stock purchased in the open market or in negotiated transactions. Treasury or new issue Common Stock is purchased from General Mills at the market price on the applicable investment date. The price of Common Stock purchased in the open market or in
negotiated transactions is the weighted average price at which the shares are actually purchased. This prospectus relates to 1,750,000 shares of Common Stock. The Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol GIS, and
its closing price as of August&nbsp;11, 2017 was $56.59 per share. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A complete description of the Plan begins on page 4 of this prospectus. </P>

Administrator will furnish the name of the registered broker utilized in share transactions within a reasonable time upon written request from the participant. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>An investment in the Common Stock involves risks. Before deciding whether to purchase any shares of Common Stock, you should consider the risks discussed
below or elsewhere in this prospectus, including those set forth under the heading &#147;Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,&#148; and in our filings with the SEC that we have incorporated by reference in this prospectus.
Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also impair our business operations. </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Any of the risks discussed below or elsewhere in this prospectus or in our SEC filings incorporated by reference, and other risks we have not anticipated
or discussed, could have a material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations. As a result, the trading price of the Common Stock could decline. </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>The price of the Common Stock may fluctuate significantly, and this may make it difficult for you to sell any shares of the Common Stock when you want or
at prices you find attractive. </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The price of the Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange constantly changes. We expect that the market price of
the Common Stock will continue to fluctuate. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, the stock markets from time to time experience price and volume fluctuations that may be
unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies and that may be extreme. These fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of the Common Stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For a further discussion of risks affecting the Common Stock, see the factors set forth below under &#147;Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements&#148; and the discussion of our business and related matters set forth in the information incorporated in this prospectus by reference. </P>

of the Common Stock are reserved for issuance on the exercise of stock options and the vesting of restricted stock units and performance share units. We cannot predict the size of future issuances or the effect, if any, that they may have on the
market price for the Common Stock. Sales of significant amounts of the Common Stock or equity-related securities in the public market, or the perception that such sales will occur, could adversely affect prevailing trading prices of the Common Stock
and could impair our ability to raise capital through future offerings of equity or equity-related securities. Future sales of shares of the Common Stock or the availability of shares of the Common Stock for future sale could adversely affect the
trading price of the Common Stock. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>We can issue shares of preference stock that may adversely affect your rights as a holder of the Common Stock.

authorized to approve the issuance of one or more series of preference stock without further authorization of our stockholders and to fix the number of shares, the designations, the relative rights and the limitations of any series of preference
stock. As a result, our board, without stockholder approval, could authorize the issuance of preference stock with voting, conversion and other rights that could proportionately reduce, minimize or otherwise adversely affect the voting power and
other rights of holders of the Common Stock or other series of preference stock or that could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in our control. </P>

administratively possible (but in no event more than five trading days) after the applicable investment date, subject to any waiting periods required under applicable securities laws or stock exchange regulations. General Mills determines the source
or sources of shares used to fulfill Plan requirements and, subject to certain regulatory restrictions on the frequency with which it can change its determination, may change such determination from time to time without notice to Plan participants.
General Mills expects that generally all Plan purchases will be effected in open market transactions. The Plan Administrator will furnish the name of the registered broker utilized in share transactions within a reasonable time upon written request

open. The price of shares purchased in the open market or in negotiated transactions is the weighted average price at which the shares are actually purchased for the applicable investment date. The Plan Administrator may, in its discretion,
commingle participants&#146; funds for the purpose of purchasing shares. Because the prices at which shares are purchased under the Plan are determined as of specified dates or as of dates otherwise beyond the control of participants, participants
may lose any advantage otherwise available from being able to select the timing of their investment. Participants&#146; accounts will be credited with the number of full and fractional shares purchased, computed to three decimal places. </P>

CONSEQUENCES VARY DEPENDING ON INDIVIDUAL CIRCUMSTANCES AND MAY BE AFFECTED BY FUTURE LEGISLATION, IRS RULINGS AND REGULATIONS AND COURT DECISIONS. ACCORDINGLY, PARTICIPANTS SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE FEDERAL,
STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES OF PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN. </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><A NAME="toc401566_29"></A>UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
</B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>DIVIDEND INCOME</I></B>. Reinvested dividends are treated for federal income tax purposes in the same manner as if the participant had received
the dividends in cash on the applicable dividend payment date. Brokerage commissions and investment fees paid by General Mills on behalf of a participant are treated as taxable dividend income to the participant and reported accordingly. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Distributions will be treated as dividends for federal income tax purposes to the extent of General Mills&#146; current or accumulated earnings and profits.
Distributions in excess of General Mills&#146; current or accumulated earnings and profits will reduce a participant&#146;s tax basis in the shares with respect to which the dividend was received, and, to the extent in excess of basis, result in
capital gain. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Dividends received by a corporate participant will be eligible for the dividends-received deduction if the participant meets certain
holding period and other applicable requirements. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>COST BASIS OF SHARES</I></B>. For federal income tax purposes, the cost basis of shares (or any
fraction of a share) purchased with reinvested dividends or optional cash investments is the purchase price of the shares, plus any related brokerage commissions and investment fees treated as taxable dividend income. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This Plan assumes that each participant will use the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">first-in,</FONT> <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">first-out</FONT>
(&#147;FIFO&#148;) method when determining the tax basis of any shares sold. Participants may designate their preference for a different method of determining the tax basis of shares by identifying this preference in writing to the Plan
Administrator. Participants may designate their preference for &#147;specific identification&#148; cost basis at any time. Each participant should consult with their tax advisor regarding whether or not the &#147;average basis method&#148; is
available for some or all of the shares acquired in connection with the Plan and which tax basis methods and elections are appropriate for such participant. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>GAINS AND LOSSES FROM THE SALE OF SHARES</I></B>. Participants do not realize any taxable income when stock certificates for full shares are credited to
Plan accounts. Participants may realize gain or loss, however, at the time the shares are sold by the Plan Administrator or by the participant after withdrawal of the shares from the Plan. In addition, terminating participants will recognize gain or
loss with respect to fractional shares sold. The amount of realized gain or loss in each case is the difference between the amount the participant receives for the shares or fractional shares sold and the participant&#146;s cost basis in those
shares. This gain or loss will be capital gain or loss provided the participant holds the shares as a capital asset, which is usually the case. Any capital gain will be taxed at long-term rates if the shares are held for more than one year and at
short-term rates if held for one year or less. </P>
