  • Froot Loops, the colorful and sugary cereal that has become a staple of American breakfast culture, was introduced by Kellogg's in 1963. Created to appeal to children with its vibrant colors and mascot, Toucan Sam, the cereal has a surprising and complex backstory linked to the controversial history of the Kellogg family itself. The company’s founder, John Harvey Kellogg, was a 19th-century physician and nutritionist known for his strict dietary principles and controversial beliefs, including his stance on purity, diet, and health. His eccentric ideas about nutrition were initially aimed at creating foods that discouraged unhealthy eating habits and even curbed certain “undesirable” behaviors. Ironically, as Kellogg's commercialized and evolved under his brother, Will Kellogg, it shifted from health-focused products to the sugary, artificial cereals like Froot Loops that we know today. Over the years, Kellogg's has been criticized for marketing Froot Loops as a “nutritious” breakfast despite its high sugar content and artificial additives. This evolution from strict dietary ideals to colorful, sugary indulgences makes the history of Froot Loops an intriguing reflection of the brand’s complex legacy.

    Dr John Kellogg’s grave is going to turn into a magic turbine plant powering an entire city if he ever heard of his surname in a sugary breakfast box.

    The Church = Seventh Day Adventist
    Being from Battle Creek there is a lot that was untouched in this video that could make things more clear but it is understood that these things can’t necessarily be discussed openly on RUclips….

    “Problematic”…a term most often associated with modern religious fundamentalists when referring to history.

    It’s not even religious fundamentalism. It’s an insane take on Christianity that is fairly young and based on the teachings of one eccentric woman who claimed her religious ideas came directly from God.
    The term “fundamentalism” gets all sorts of strange meanings nowadays, though.
