some like it hot


some like it hot

some like it cold

sometimes it depends on the weather

some like it first thing in the morning

some last thing at night

have you ever had it at noon?


How do you like your cereal?

Crispy flakes with cold milk? Creamy oatmeal that warms you up?

Cereal has been a part of our whole lives. Prizes in the cereal box. Saving boxtops to send off for neat stuff. Did you have a superduper decoder ring? Did you make doll cradles out of the round Quaker oatmeal boxes? Were your favorite sports figures on the Wheaties boxes?

Did you know... cereal started with the American Seventh-Day Adventists. Because of their vegetarian beliefs they served thin-baked cereal dough to their patients at the Battle Creek Sanitarium, in Battle Creek, Michigan. Two men, C.W. Post and W.K. Kellogg, saw the commercial potential of the cereal and started their own businesses. The rest, as they say, is history.
