In this blog, we will discuss the timeline of cereal.
Cereal was invented by accident in 1877. John Harvey Kellogg and Will Keith Kellogg were experimenting with boiled wheat, as brothers do. They left a batch out overnight and returned to find it stale. They tried the same process with corn, and in turn created what we know today as Kellogg's Corn Flakes.
In 1939, sweetened cereal was born. 'Ranger Joe Popped Wheat Honnie' showed up in grocery stores, on radio and TV ads to show kids liked who liked sugar that cereal didn't have to be healthy.
In 1964, fancier cereal mixes such as 'Lucky Charms' debuted on store shelves, with fruit, marshmallows and other sweet bits mixed in.
Cereal Facts
1). Cereal is a stable crop, and it's grains are grown in greater quantities and provide more food energy worldwide than any other type of crop.
2). In 1909, The Funny Jungleland Moving Pictures Book came with the purchase of two packages of Corn Flakes.
3). The word cereal is derived from Ceres, the Roman goddess of harvest and agriculture.
4). Astronauts ate Kellogg's Corn Flakes aboard Apollo 11, which was the first moon landing. This means cereal has been to the moon.
