Risk Management Activities [Abstract] | |
Risk Management Activities | ( 6 ) Risk Management Activities Many commodities we use in the production and distribution of our products are exposed to market price risks. We utilize derivatives to manage price risk for our principal ingredients and energy costs, including grains (oats, wheat, and corn), oils (principally soybean), non-fat dry milk, natural gas, and diesel fuel. Our primary objective when entering into these derivative contracts is to achieve certainty with regard to the future price of commodities purchased for use in our supply chain. We mana ge our exposures through a combination of purchase orders, long-term contracts with suppliers, exchange-traded futures and options, and over-the-counter options and swaps. We offset our exposures based on current and projected market conditions and genera lly seek to acquire the inputs at as close to our planned cost as possible. We use derivatives to manage our exposure to changes in commodity prices. We do not perform the assessments required to achieve hedge accounting for commodity derivative position s. Accordingly, the changes in the values of these derivatives are recorded currently in cost of sales in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Although we do not meet the criteria for cash flow hedge accounting, we believe that these instruments are e ffective in achieving our objective of providing certainty in the future price of commodities purchased for use in our supply chain. Accordingly, for purposes of measuring segment operating performance, certain gains and losses are reported in unallocated corporate items outside of segment operating results until such time that the exposure we are managing affects earnings. At that time we reclassify the gain or loss from unallocated corporate items to segment operating profit, allowing our operating segmen ts to realize the economic effects of the derivative without experiencing the resulting mark-to-market volatility, which remains in unallocated corporate items. Unallocated corporate items for the quarters and six-month periods ended November 27, 2016 , and November 29, 2015 included: Quarter Ended Six-Month Period Ended In Millions Nov. 27, 2016 Nov. 29, 2015 Nov. 27, 2016 Nov. 29, 2015 Net gain (loss) on mark-to-market valuation of certain commodity positions $ 3.0 $ (31.7) $ (15.9) $ (54.0) Net loss on commodity positions reclassified from unallocated corporate items to segment operating profit 14.4 35.2 23.7 62.1 Net mark-to-market revaluation of certain grain inventories 11.7 4.2 4.7 2.3 Net mark-to-market valuation of certain commodity positions recognized in unallocated corporate items $ 29.1 $ 7.7 $ 12.5 $ 10.4 As of November 27, 2016 , the net notional value of commodity derivatives was $ 164.0 million, of which $ 72.4 million related to energy inputs and $ 91.6 million related to agricultural inputs. These contracts relate to inputs that generally will be utilized within the next 12 months. In advance of planned debt financing, during the third quarter of fiscal 2016 and the first quarter of fiscal 2017, we entered into $400 million and $100 million , respe ctively , of tre asury locks due February 15, 2017 with an average fixed rate of 2.0 percent. As of November 27, 2016, the net notional value of foreign exchange derivatives was $900.0 million. The fair values of the derivative positions used in our risk management activities and other assets recorded at fair value were not material as of November 27, 2016 , and were Level 1 or Level 2 assets and liabilities in the fair value hierarchy. We did not significantly change our valuation techniques from prior periods We offer certain suppliers access to a third party service that allows them to view our scheduled payments online. The third party service also allows suppliers to finance advances on our scheduled payments at the sole discretion of the supplier and the third party. We have no economic interest in these financing arrangements and no direct relationship with the suppliers, the third party, or any financial institutions concerning this service. All of our accounts payable remain as obligations to our suppli ers as stated in our supplier agreements. As of November 27, 2016 , $560.2 million of our total accounts payabl e is payable to suppliers who utilize this third party service. |

Commercial paper is a continuing source of short-term financing. We have commercial paper programs available to us i n the United States and Europe. We also have committed, uncommitted , and asset-backed credit lines that support our foreign operations. The following table details the fee-paid committed and uncommitted credit lines we had available as of November 27, 2016 : In Billions Facility Amount Borrowed Amount Credit facility expiring: May 2021 $ 2.7 $ - June 2019 0.2 0.1 Total committed credit facilities 2.9 0.1 Uncommitted credit facilities 0.4 0.1 Total committed and uncommitted credit facilities $ 3.3 $ 0.2 In fiscal 2016, we entered into a $2.7 billion fee-paid committed credit facility that is scheduled to expire in May 2021. Concurrent with the execution of this credit facility, we terminated our $1.7 billion and $1.0 billion credit facilities. The credit facilities contain covenants, including a requirement to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 2.5 times. We were in compliance with all credit facility covenants as of November 27, 2016 . Long-Term Debt The fair values and carrying amount s of long-term debt, including the current portion, were $ 8,347.2 million and $8,049.6 million, respectively, as of November 27, 2016 . The fair value of long-term debt was estimated using market quotations and discounted cash flows based on our c urrent incremental borrowing rates for similar types of instruments. Long-term debt is a Level 2 liability in the fair value hierarchy. In January 2016, we issued €500.0 million principal amount of floating-rate notes due January 15, 2020. Interest on th e note s is payable quarterl y in arrears. We may redeem the notes if certain tax laws change and we would be obligated to pay additional amounts on the notes. These notes are senior unsecured obligations that include a change of control repurchase provisio n. The net proceeds were used to repay a portion of our maturing long-term debt . In January 2016, we repaid $250 million of 0 .875 percent fixed- rat e notes and $750 million of floating-rate notes. Certain of our long-term debt agreements contain restrictive covenants. As of November 27, 2016 , we were in compliance with all of these covenants. |

Redeemable and Noncontrolling Interests | (8) Redeemable and Noncontrolling Interests We have a 51 percent co ntrolling interest in Yoplait SAS and a 50 percent int erest in Yoplait Marques SNC and Liberté Marques Sàrl . Sodiaal International ( Sodiaal ) holds the remaining interests in each of the entities. On the acquisition date , we recorded the $904.4 million fair value of Sodiaal’s 49 percent euro-denomi nated interest in Yoplait SAS as a redeemable interest on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Sodiaal has the ability to put all or a portion of its redeemable interest to us at fair value once per year, up to three times before December 2024. We adjust the value of the redeemable interest through additional paid-in capital on our Consolidated Balance She ets quarterly to the redeemable interest’s redemption value, which approximate s its fair value. Yoplait SAS pays dividends annually if it meets certain financial metrics set forth in its shareholders’ agreement. As of November 27, 2016 , the redemption value of the euro-denominated redeemable interest was $ 801.7 million. A subsidiary of Yoplait SAS has an exclusive milk supply agreement for its European operations with Sodiaal through July 1, 2021. Net purchases totaled $ 123.5 million for the six-month period ended November 27, 2016 and $107 .6 million for the six-month period ended November 29, 2015 . On the acquisition dates, we recorded the $281.4 million fair value of Sodiaal’s 50 percent euro-denominated interest in Yoplait Marques SNC and 50 percent Canadian dollar-denominated interest in Liberté Marques Sàrl as noncontrolling interests on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Yoplait Marques SNC earns a royalty stream through a licensing agreement with Yoplait S AS for th e rights to Yoplait and related trademarks. Liberté Marques Sàrl earns a royalty stream through licensing agreements with certain Yoplait group companies for the rights to Libe rté and related trademarks. These entities pay dividends annually based on their available cash as of their fiscal year end. The third-party holder of the Class A Interests in our General Mills Cereals, LLC (GMC) consolidated subsidiary receives quarterly preferred distributions from available net income based on the application of a floating preferred return rate to the holder’s capital account balance established in the most recent mark-to-market valuation (currently $251.5 million). The preferred return rate is adjusted every three years through a negotiated agreement with the Cla ss A Interest holder or through a remarketing auction. On June 1, 2015, the floating preferred return rate on GMC’s Class A Interests was reset to the sum of three-month LIBOR plus 125 basis points. Our noncontrolling interests contain restrictive covenan ts. As of November 27, 2016 , we were in compliance with all of these covenants. |

Black-Scholes option- pricing models require us to make predictive assumptions regarding future stock price volatility, employee exercise behavior, and dividend yield. We estimate our future stock price volatility using the historical volatility over the expected term of the option, excluding time periods of volatility we believe a marketplace participant would exclude in estimating our stock price volatility. We also have considered, but did not use, implied volatility in our estimate, because trading activity in options on our stock, especially those with tenors of greater than 6 months, is insufficient to provide a reliable measure of expected volatility. Our method of selecting the other valuation a ssumptions is explained in Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 29, 2016 .

Retirement and Postemployment Benefits [Abstract] | |
Retirement and Postemployment Benefits | (14) Retirement and Postemployment Benefits Beginning in fiscal 2017, we changed the method used to estimate the service and interest cost components of the net periodic benefit expense for our U.S. and most of our international defined benefit pension, other postretirement benefit and postemployment benefit plans. We adopted a full yield curve approach to estimate service cost and interest cost by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used to determine the benefit obligation to the relevant projected cash flows. This method provides a more precise measurement of service and interest costs by correlating the timing of the plans’ liability cash flows to the corresponding rate on the yield curve. Previously, we estimated service c ost and interest cost using a single weighted-average discount rate derived from the yield curve used to measure the benefit obligation at the beginning of the period. This change does not affect the measurement of our benefit obligations related to these plans. We have accounted for this change prospectively as a change in accounting estimate beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The change in methodology resulted in a decrease in service and interest cost of approximately $17 million in the thr ee months ended November 27, 20 16 and approximately $34 million in the six-month period ended November 27, 2016 compared to what our costs would have been under the previous method. We expect this change to result in a reduction in our service and interest cost of approxi m ately $68 million for fiscal 2017 compared to our previous methodology . The fiscal 2017 reduction in our net periodic benefit expense as a result of this change in methodology is partially offset by a reduction in our weighted-average expected rate of ret urn on plan assets for our principal defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans in the United States to 8.25 percent as a result of asset changes that decreased investment risk in the portfolio.

Business Segment Information [Abstract] | |
Business Segment Information | (15) Business Segment Information We operate in the consumer foods industry. We have three operating segments by type of customer and geographic region as follows: U.S. Retail; International; and Convenience Stores and Foodservice . Our U.S. Retail segment reflects business with a wide variety of grocery stores, mass merchandisers, membership stores, natural food chains, drug, dollar and discount chains, and e-commerce grocery providers operating throughout the United States. Our product categories in this business segment are ready-to-eat cereals, refrigerated yogurt, soup, meal kits, refrigerated and frozen dough products, dessert and baking mixes, frozen pizza and pizza snacks, grain, fruit and savory snacks, and a wide variety of organic products including meal kits, granola bars, and cereal. Our International segment consists of retail and foodservice businesses outside of the United States. Our product categories include ready-to-eat cereals, shelf stable and frozen vegetables, meal kits, refri gerated and frozen dough products, dessert and baking mixes, frozen pizza snacks, refrigerated yogurt, grain and fruit snacks, and super-premium ice cream and frozen desserts. We also sell super-premium ice cream and frozen desserts directly to consumers t hrough owned retail shops. Our International segment also includes products manufactured in the United States for export, mainly to Caribbean and Latin American markets, as well as products we manufacture for sale to our international joint ventures. Reven ues from export activities and franchise fees are reported in the region or country where the end customer is located. In our Convenience Stores and Foodservice segment , our major product categories are ready-to-eat cereals, snacks, refrigerated yogurt, fr ozen meals, unbaked and fully baked frozen dough products, and baking mixes. Many products we sell are branded to the consumer and nearly all are branded to our customers. We sell to distributors and operators in many customer channels including foodservic e, convenience stores, vending, and supermarket bakeries in the United States. Operating profit for these segments excludes unallocated corporate items, gain or loss on divestitures, and restructuring, impairme nt, and other exit costs. Unallocated corporate items include corporate overhead expenses, variances to planned domestic employee benefits and incentives, contributions to the General Mills Foundation, asset and liability remeasurement impact of hyperinfla tionary economies, restructuring initiative project-related costs, and other items that are not part of our measurement of segment operating performance. These include gains and losses arising from the revaluation of certain grain inventories and gains and losses from mark-to-market valuation of certain commodity positions until passed back to our operating segments. These items affecting operating profit are centrally managed at the corporate level and are excluded from the measure of segment profitability reviewed by executive management. Under our supply chain organization, our manufacturing, warehouse, and distribution activities are substantially integrated across our operations in order to maximize efficiency and productivity. As a result, fixed assets and depreciation and amortization expenses are neither maintained nor available by operating segment. Our operating segment results were as follows: Quarter Ended Six-Month Period Ended In Millions Nov. 27, 2016 Nov. 29, 2015 Nov. 27, 2016 Nov. 29, 2015 Net sales: U.S. Retail $ 2,521.3 $ 2,761.9 $ 4,853.1 $ 5,293.1 International 1,103.3 1,157.2 2,233.1 2,356.2 Convenience Stores and Foodservice 487.5 505.8 933.8 983.5 Total $ 4,112.1 $ 4,424.9 $ 8,020.0 $ 8,632.8 Operating profit: U.S. Retail $ 615.4 $ 600.4 $ 1,209.8 $ 1,230.1 International 105.9 136.2 205.9 253.2 Convenience Stores and Foodservice 109.1 102.8 201.8 182.6 Total segment operating profit 830.4 839.4 1,617.5 1,665.9 Unallocated corporate items 19.0 71.5 101.4 154.6 Divestitures loss (gain) 13.5 (199.1) 13.5 (199.1) Restructuring, impairment, and other exit costs 29.0 61.3 87.9 121.4 Operating profit $ 768.9 $ 905.7 $ 1,414.7 $ 1,589.0 |

New Accounting Pronouncements [Abstract] | |
New Accounting Pronouncements | (16) New Accounting Pronouncements In the first quarter of fiscal 2017, we adopted new accounting requirements for the presentation of certain investments using the net asset value, providing a practical expedient to exclude such investments from categorization within the fair value hierarc hy and separate disclosure. The adoption of this guidance did not impact our results of operations or financial position. In the first quarter of fiscal 2017, we adopted new accounting requirements which permit reporting entities with a fiscal year-end t hat does not coincide with a month-end to apply a practical expedient that permits the entity to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations using the month-end that is closest to the entity’s fiscal year-end and apply such practical expedient cons istently to all plans. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position. |

Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
Subsequent Events | (17) Subsequent Events Subsequent to the end of our second quarter, we approved restructuring actions designed to better align our organizational structure with our strategic initiatives. In connection with these actions, we expect to eliminate approximately 400 to 600 positions globally, subject to consultation with employees and employee representatives in locations as required. In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, we expect to record total pre-tax restructuring charges of approxi mately $60 to $90 million, reflecting primarily one-time, cash employee severance expenses. These restructuring actions are expected to be completed by the end of fiscal 2018. We expect to generate $70 to $90 million in savings by the end of fiscal 2018. In addition, we are currently assessing the impact of these organizational structure changes on our reporting segments and expect to begin reporting in modified segments in the third quarter of fiscal 2017. |

Share-based Compensation Arrangement by Share-based Payment Award, Options, Additional Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Share-based Compensation Arrangement by Share-based Payment Award, Fair Value Assumptions, Method Used | We estimate the fair value of each stock option on the grant date using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Black-Scholes option-pricing models require us to make predictive assumptions regarding future stock price volatility, employee exercise behavior, and dividend yield. We estimate our future stock price volatility using the historical volatility over the expected term of the option, excluding time periods of volatility we believe a marketplace participant would exclude in estimating our stock price volatility. We also have considered, but did not use, implied volatility in our estimate, because trading activity in options on our stock, especially those with tenors of greater than 6 months, is insufficient to provide a reliable measure of expected volatility. Our method of selecting the other valuation assumptions is explained in Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 29, 2016. |
