Corn Flakes - Originally Manufactured by Kellogg's

Corn flakes are a popular breakfast cereal originally manufactured by Kellogg's through the treatment of maize (Corn) by accident on August 8, 1894.

W.K. Kellogg and his brother Dr. John Harvey Kellogg create the world's first toasted cereal flakes at the Battle Creek Sanatorium. And they name it Granose, where 'Gran' meant grain and 'Ose' is a scientific suffix that suggested pre-digestion. Soon, word spreads rapidly about this deliciously nourishing new product.
