Kellogs Cornflakes were created of course by Mr Kellog, but did you know that the reason for their creation was something rather more unusual. You see, like many Americans in the 19th century, Mr Kellog was rather religious, somewhat of a puritan you might say. He believed that spicey and exciting foods could lead to an upset in the human body; it would become excitable, the passions enflamed and all sorts of strange feelings would be aroused. Thus, his cornflakes were invented to be a food that would keep the bodys levels of passion low and controlled before the days work would begin. That's right folks, Kellogs cornflakes were invented to stop you wanking. And ironically, on the front of the packet is a big fat COCK! Lovely.

Rice Krispies and Graham Crackers would also be invented to have an anaphrodisiacal quality.
