About

World War II is in the rearview mirror, and breakfast cereal is on the brink of a new calorific era. Post Cereals decides to break from its healthful past and start sugar coating its cereals. It’s a move that leaves Kellogg’s and General Mills in a quandary: should they follow Post’s lead or stick to their nutritional traditions?But sugary cereal isn’t the only new challenge the cereal giants are wrestling with.

And this TV and sugar boom is going to put children at the heart of the cereal business.Support us by supporting our sponsors!Zoom - Visit Zoom online, set up a FREE account, and try the most affordable and most reliable video communications solution on the market.
