Someone fuckin' took a bag of mostly finished cornflakes out of its box, plopped it on their kitchen table, and then stuck a camera inside and made a panoramic photo of it. then stuck it on wikipedia, because...
...POV cornflakey goodness I guess???
.... I love it???

Okay so... looking at the wikipedia page for Cornflakes and...
... someone has included a 360 photo of the inside of a cornflakes bag
Why
why have they included a 360 pan around picture of the INSIDE of a cornflakes bag!? in a room????
... I mean I don't MIND because it's kinda silly and cool but... XD
@Ivafakename so basically because Dr Kellogg was a hyper-religious dip, nobody bloody remembers him, but Will Kellogg basically went on to make a hugely successful breakfast cereal company and made shittons
@Ivafakename They toasted these, and served it, and then it turns out they were SUPER friggin popular because they actually tasted pretty good. Dr Kellogg did market it hoping it would reduce dyspepsia and masturbation/sexual appetite, but uh, haha.
Then Will who was the business manager, went ahead and mass marketed it, adding sugar to make it more palatable, but then of course Dr Kellogg was pissed because "AAAAAH TEH SINNNNNNNNNINNNGGGGG".
Will didn't give two figs tho :3
@Ivafakename Sorta? But also not. basically, John Harvey Kellogg ran a sanitarium, he firmly believed spicy or sweet foods would "increase passions" or some such, but yeah the strict diet he imposed at his sanitarium was all bland foods. entirely.
His younger brother left some cooked wheat to sit out while they attended some pressing matters, so it went stale, but due to the strict budget they forced it through the rollers, wanting to obtain long sheets of dough. Instead, they got flakes.
@Ivafakename I love how cornflakes were a total accident because kellogg was a massive fundie weirdo and made branflakes to try and stop people masturbating (like I said, he was hyper religious) but some of the corn went off and they used it anyway and it turned out it was delicious so his brother went "holy crap we can make money off this instead of feeding gross bland tripe to people" and sold it against the main dude's wishes and he threw a hissy fit?
yeah i'm moving over to chitter.xyz now. Soooo go there! I'm there now.
