Cold cereals have revolutionized the American breakfast buffet. The mother no longer needs to cook hot cereal, eggs or meat, and children can prepare something for themselves independently before going to school. At the turn of the twentieth century, the production of cold cereals began mainly with two wonderful men whom the possibilities and gambling saw. Breakfast was not the same.

In the late 1890s, an eccentric man named John Harvey Kellogg ran a health clinic in Battle Creek, Michigan, and made a tasteless taste for his gastrointestinal patients. A few years later, his brother decided to market new products at his new company, Battle Creek Toasted Corn Flake Company, adding a little sugar to the chip recipe to make them more popular, and gave birth to a star.

Around the same time, CW Post, who was sick at the Kellogg Clinic, introduced an alternative to coffee called Postom, followed by grape grapes (which has nothing to do with grapes or nuts) and a copy of Kellogg's corn flakes, called Post-Toasts, and American breakfasts were not itself.

The men could thank a gentleman named Sylvester Graham, who had tried Graham Graham 40 years ago and marketed it to help "digestive problems." He invented the dried breakfast cereals and split them into hard shapes that needed to be soaked in milk all night, called granola (granola's father and cracker of Graham).

Utilizing this original idea, in 1898, the National Company for Biscuits (Nabisco) began producing Graham crackers based on the Sylvester Graham experiments, where it was first promoted as a "peptic" cracker for people with stomach problems; Of digestive problems even at that time.)

Fast forward and other companies were sitting and taking note. Quaker Oats acquired a method that forced the rice granules to explode and began marketing puffed rice and puffed wheat, describing them as a marvel in food science that was "the first food to be shot with weapons." (Boy, have you been fired for this day one, no? Meaning punitive);

Wheat was introduced in the 1920s and cleverly targeted athletes, declaring it the "hero's breakfast";

In the 1930s, Ralston Purina presented an early version of Wheat Chex, describing it as Shredded Ralston (looking a bit painful);

Cheerios soon appeared and will become the best-selling grain in America, worth about $ 1 billion in sales in 2015.

No one can question the ingenuity and variety of packaged dry cereals. In the past 50 years, this multibillion-dollar industry has led to multiple uses, unlimited possibilities and targeted children with clever packaging, awful names, flavors, colors and options (all of which are sugar-laden). What could be more of American corn flakes?
