Summary

Description
English:

In 1898, W.K. Kellogg created a process for flaking corn. Eight years later, he founded the Toasted Corn Flake Co. in Battle Creek, Michigan. Kellogg differentiated the cereal from Post Toasties by marketing it as the "only genuine Toasted Corn Flakes" and including his hallmark signature on every box and advertisement.

They can't budge it. Kellogg's Toasted Flakes is here to stay...You may be able to buy the imitation brands cheaper than Kellogg's, but isn't it good merchandising to stick with the popular brand which yields a good profit and sells quickly?...It is sold on equal terms to all retailers - no direct sales to the big fellow - no free deals - no premiums - just good quality - fair sales methods - generous advertising.
