Today our Topic will be Corn Flakes.All of us have eaten and enjoyed cornflakes multiple times in our life but we do not have thought that how corn flakes were made.95 % people don't know that who invented corn flakes.Even 5 of our team members haven't knowed it before one of our member told this to them.Let's talk about it.In 1894 corn flakes were made by John Harvey Kellogg.John Harvey Kellogg was an American doctor.He was also an inventor ,nutrition and businessman.
Corn Flakes was made in Michigan.Michigan is a state in United States.Corn Flakes were invented by the John Harvey Kellog and his brother.Corn Flakes were made for the patients under their supervision because some patients under their supervision eat only vegetables for vitamins and strenghth.They don't eat meat or other meat related food items because of their old caste system.John and his brother was very worried because of this issue because the vitamins present in meat are important for these patients.
If they don't take in healthy vitamins present in the meat and other meat related food items then how they will discover faster.We get thiamin , riboflavin , niacin ,vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 from meat and meat items.These vitamins are called B-Complex Vitamins.Both of these brothers was worried about their patients.They were trying to prepare a such food dish which prove healthy for these patients.This food dish should be according to their old caste system.
One day in hurry while going to 3 days research trip to the other state of US they mistakely left the boiled wheat uncovered in their room.After three days when they came back they saw that the boiled wheat become staled.Elder brother asked little brother to put the staled wheat in the bin.When he was going to put it in the bin John suddenly stopped him and asked him to put the wheat on the table.Then he put it back on the table.After this John got out of the house .
Then he goes to the park and there he started walking and thinking in his mind. This process was continued for about 2 hours.After 2 hours John came house back.After coming back he asked his little brother to flatten the wheat.His little brother flattened the wheat with the help of roller.When the wheat passed from rollers it become irregular shaped instead of flatened shape.As an experiment Dr John gave that irregular shaped wheat to the patient.
After eating this wheat the patient demanded that more.In comments patient asked that this is very tasty and i will love to have it more.After this Dr John sent the sample of that wheat to the lab to check that how much vitamins are present in it .Its checking in the lab is compulsary because it is to verify that it is not harmful to the human health and its verification is only available in laboratory.After 2 days when the report of that wheat came John was out of city.
Little brother of Dr John handled this report to the house then he put it on the table of the room of Dr John.When Dr John Harvey Kellogg reached home at night he saw this report on his table.After drinking water he opened the report and started reading it.He felt very happy after reading this that this wheat is rich in all the important vitamins which are necessary for these patients.He immidiately goes to the room of his brother and told him that good news.
They both became very happy .They also have used this same technique on maize but when his reports came from lab it has proved that it is not so good for human health.Its taste was also not good.It was also bitter in taste.After that they started making this dish with wheat and first of all named it as Granose.Afterwards as the time passed and modern time comed it was named as corn flakes.These brothers started making these corn flakes at higher level and started their company and the name of their company was Kellogg Company.
Kellogg Corn Flakes was the most earlier and popular cornflakes making company in the United States.It was the first company which started making corn flakes at commecial level. Their cornflakes became very popular in the United States.These cornflakes have been liked all over the World.Within 3 months their company became big and their corn flakes began to be supplied all over the World.This was very good for patients which relate to caste who don't eat meat because this was rich of vitamins.
After some years in 1906 when Will Keith Kellogg asked his elder brother John Harvey Kellogg to add sugar in these Cornflakes to make them sweetish . John denied and when Will Keith argued more with John he separated himself from the company.After this he started his own company and in his company he continued his old method of making corn flakes.John's company also became popular within two to three months.
The Cornflakes of these two companies became popular in the World. As the time passed some people copied their recipe and make many factories like them but haven't became as famous as them.Their companies are still on Number one in the World .
