    Well, if I still ate cereal, I would stop eating kellogg’s.

    Besides, that breakfast cereal was created because Kellogg thought that it would stop people from masturbating.

      I mean, it works though. I’m not masturbating most of the times I eat corn flakes.

      Man, I cant help but laugh at this. I give my boys advice on how to clean up after, not like they arent going to do it anyways. Even monkeys wank often using their own mouth, god bless them. Some religions have their gods wank us into existance…

      I think Kellog was a closeted homosexual pederast, why else would he spend so much time and effort thinking of teenage boys and their bits?

      W-what? I mean late 1800s I’m not too much in disbelief, but considering I didn’t find a single word of this theory mentioned in wikipedia (and there was a completely different origin story) so this kinda sounds like a moon nazi theory

        They are probably mixing up history facts with the graham cracker guy:

        The graham cracker was inspired by the preaching of Sylvester Graham, who was part of the 19th-century temperance movement. He believed that minimizing pleasure and stimulation of all kinds, including the prevention of masturbation, coupled with a vegetarian diet anchored by bread made from wheat coarsely ground at home, was how God intended people to live, and that following this natural law would keep people healthy.

        I admit the statement is a bit reductionist, but it was part of his idea that a bland diet would help with his other ideas surrounding abstinence. Most of which are rather suspect.

            Oh, he also had a “spa” that was based around “clean living”, he was very much selling both.
