Cornflakes were created at a sanatorium as part of a health diet.
Why it is true
At the Battle Creek Sanitarium in Michigan, the brothers John Harvey and Will Keith Kellogg accidentally left cooked wheat to stand in 1894. When they rolled it, it came out as flakes. They then tried corn, and Will founded the Kellogg's company in 1906.
