Culinary Quiz Answer:
Granose
Cornflakes were created commercially by Dr John Kellogg, who was also the founder of many other leading brands of cereal and also the Kellogg's cereal company. Granose, despite being very similar
to cornflakes, was not exactly the same thing. Granose, like many of Dr Kellogg's other inventions, were tasteless, and weren't too popular. After experimenting with the original recipe, Dr Kellogg finally invented cornflakes in 1902.
