As you progress in your music career you will find yourself becoming Kelloggs. You might keep coming up with new breakfast ideas, but all they want is corn flakes. (File under why I don’t make albums or tour any more). #music #cereal
@lardmotel You know why Kellogg started the cereal business? To produce food to dampen the sex drives of kids and thus stop them from masturbating. He had a clinic in Michigan to treat wayward wankers. Graham crackers were another self-abuse prevention product.

@bobcromwell @lardmotel In college, I loved to wander the library to find treasures…. One day, I saw this old book authored by a Kellogg. Breakfast cereal? I picked it up and opened it, to find a hilarious, sadistic, screed about the horrors of masturbation. And yes, breakfast cereal! A truly sick man… But reading here and there in Plain Facts for Old and Young, was also an interesting trip through old ideas about goodness and badness. Here’s a link if you’re curious.
