Kellogg's Corn Flakes

 

Kellogg's corn flakes started as a mistake.

 

The Kellogg brothers had some leftover wheat. To prevent it from spoiling, they boiled it, and then flattened it.

 

That tasted okay, but they wanted to make it more crunchy. So they used corn. They boiled the corn, and then flattened that into “flakes.”

 

They called them “corn flakes.” Those sold so well that the company grew and grew.

 

Today, the Kellogg's company also makes Frosted Flakes, Froot Loops, Raisin Bran, Pop-Tarts, and a bunch of other things. 


-------------------------------


Explain It

Now have your child answer a couple questions about the story:


  1. What was today's story about?

  2. How are corn flakes made?
