- Dr. John Harvey Kellogg developed cornflakes as a food to satisfy the strict vegan diet of his Seventh Day Adventist faith.
- He was also a supporter of sexual abstinence, and since he believed that spicy or sweet foods would increase passions, he served cornflakes to the patients at his sanitarium, to lower their sex drives.
- Hard to believe Kelloggs didnt use that one in its advertising.
