A breakfast cereal (or just cereal) is a packaged breakfast food. It is sometimes eaten cold, usually mixed with milk, water or yogurt, but sometimes eaten dry. Some cereals, such as oatmeal, may be served hot as porridge. Some companies promote their products for the health benefits from eating oat-based and high-fiber cereals. Cereals may be fortified with vitamins. Some cereals are made with high sugar content. The breakfast cereal industry has gross profit margins of 40-45%, 90% penetration in some markets, and steady; continued growth throughout its history.

Breakfast cereals have their beginnings in the vegetarian movement in the last quarter of the nineteenth century, which influenced members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the United States. The main Western breakfast at that time was a cooked breakfast of eggs, bacon, sausage, and beef. The first packaged breakfast cereal, Granula (named after granules) was invented in the United States in 1863 by James Caleb Jackson, operator of the Jackson Sanitorium in Dansville, New York and a staunch vegetarian. The cereal never became popular; it was far too inconvenient, as the heavy bran nuggets needed soaking overnight before they were tender enough to eat. Ferdinand Schumacher, president of the American Cereal Company, created the first commercially successful cereal made from oats; manufacturing took place in Akron, Ohio.

Cereals, grains or cereal grains, are grasses (members of the monocot families Poaceae or Gramineae) cultivated for the edible components of their fruit seeds (botanically, a type of fruit called a caryopsis) - the endocarp, germ and bran. Cereal grains are grown in greater quantities and provide more food energy worldwide than any other type of crop; they are therefore staple crops. In their natural form (as in whole grain), they are a rich source of vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, fats and oils, and protein. However, when refined by the removal of the bran and germ, the remaining endocarp is mostly carbohydrate and lacks the majority of the other nutrients. In some developing nations, grain in the form of rice, wheat, or maize (in American terminology, corn) constitutes a majority of daily sustenance. In developed nations, cereal consumption is more moderate and varied but still substantial.

In 1877, breakfast cereals were considerably more convenient, and, combined with clever marketing, they finally managed to catch on. John Harvey Kellogg, operator of the Battle Creek Sanitarium in Battle Creek, Michigan, invented a biscuit made of ground-up wheat, oat, and cornmeal for his patients suffering from bowel problems. The product was initially also named "Granula", but changed to "Granola" after a lawsuit. His most famous contribution, however, was an accident. After leaving a batch of boiled wheat soaking overnight and rolling it out, Kellogg had created wheat flakes. His brother Will Keith Kellogg later invented corn flakes from a similar method, bought out his brother's share in their business, and went on to found the Kellogg Company in 1906. With his shrewd marketing and advertising, Kellogg's sold their one millionth case after three years.

We all know cereal is without doubt the most popular breakfast in America today. However, we hear little about the history of cereal and our dependence on it for our morning nutrition kick. Okay, so knowing the history of cereal will not change your life in any dramatic way, but it is an interesting history tidbit and besides that, it could be a fun conversation piece! One hundred and fifty years ago, Americans were eating pork, beef, or chicken for their breakfasts. In the 19th century, Americans ate breakfasts heavy on the meat and light on grains and fiber. In time, those interested in eating more healthy foods began a push for all Americans to eat better.
This brought about the creation of Granula (yes, granula). This name derived from granulates, which is to form into granules or grains. In 1863 this became our first breakfast cereal and consisted of heavy nuggets made from bran, the outer husk of a grain that is removed when making flour. The cereal had to be soaked overnight before being eaten. Simply pouring milk over it was not enough to make it edible.

The cereals we eat today grew out of a health movement that began in the 1860s. Thin, baked dough served to patients in hospitals became the interest of two men, C.W. Post and W. K. Kellogg. Both men saw a business opportunity in creating a tasty, ready-to-eat morning cereal that would be as nutritious as this baked dough was. These two men started their own companies, named them after themselves and changed the way Americans ate breakfast.

In 1865, Mr. Post developed an item called Postum, a hot drink made of cereal. Two years later he developed Grape Nuts which we are all familiar with today.
Mr. Kellogg developed his first cereal in 1906 and named it Kellogg's Toasted Corn Flakes. The third largest breakfast cereal producer today is General Mills. Its claim to fame began in 1924 when it created the well-known and loved Wheaties cereal.

When cereal was first developed, it consisted of simple, flat flakes. In 1937, General Mills invented the "puffing gun" which heated grains such as rice until they puffed up into crunchy little balls. The very first "puffed" cereal to hit the marked was Kix. After Kix hit the market, a new process began to make cereal called shredding. The results were the creation of the well-known cereal, Shredded Wheat. Also incorporated was the process of extruding the flakes into pellets, which brought about the creation of cereals like Captain Krunch.

By the middle 1950's, cereal manufacturers discovered new customers -- kids. Adding sugar to cereal became popular along with prizes in the boxes and the introduction of cartoon characters such as the Trix Rabbit and Tony the Tiger. Some of the oldest cereal characters are the Rice Krispies elves, Snap, Crackle and Pop. Snap worked alone when first introduced and added to the cereal box. Crackle and Pop joined him a few years later.
