Paging Dr. John Harvey Kellogg

"Cereal would create fortunes and create multinational companies that we still know today. But Dr. John Harvey Kellogg K +0%, the inventor of corn flakes, did not care about profits. For him, cereal was not just a health food because it would improve Americans digestion. He believed a diet centered on bland foods like cereal would lead Americans away from sin. One very specific sin: masturbation."

The surprising reason why Dr. John Harvey Kellogg invented cereal

Here's wishing BenLurkin well in his struggle.

Corn flakes was too tasty in our house. Mother fed us plain puffed rice with prepared powdered milk and no sugar. BARFFFFFFFF!!!!

I still nearly cry when I think of a kind neighbor who would give us milk straight from her cow. Heaven. But that wasn’t until high school.
