About

It’s the late 1800s and America is in the grip of a bellyache epidemic.

In his quest to calm the nation’s bowels, Dr. Kellogg is feeding his patients a new kind of breakfast: ready-to-eat cereal.But when he refuses to exploit the full profit potential of his creations, one of his former patients seizes the opportunity to become a breakfast millionaire — much to the frustration of Dr. Kellogg’s long-suffering younger brother Will.Support us by supporting our sponsors!Privacy Policy and California Privacy Notice.
