On a board dominated by folks from Louisiana, this may be the tone deaf, cognitive dissonant post of the century.

So Dr. John Harvey Kellogg thought sex was bad and thought that certain foods, especially flavorful foods, contributed to people wanting more sex so his cure for that was for people to eat plain food like cornflakes. 

That was a boring read.


Eat cornflakes to kill your sex drive.

It's a bold advertising strategy.

Second page and not even a single mention about the yogurt enemas. The OT is slipping.

The inventor Kellogg ran a 'wellness' center up in Michigan. They made a movie about. It was a comedy-documentary-drama.

If you haven't seen it, check out the movie The Road to Wellville from 20+ years ago. It's about Kellogg's spa he had up in Michigan. It is hilarious.

Ohh I’d like to find that movie.

He’s the inventor of the phrase, “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day”, in an effort to sell more cereal.

To this day, a huge % of the population still believes it to the extent of shoving 1000+ calories down their face every morning.

It’s called The Road To Wellville and has Matthew Broderick and Dana Carvey in it.

I don’t know if it is being streamed anywhere right now.
