How modern breakfast cereal was invented

Hi

My mans fast at typing

Why is 18 hours ago lol

No

Truuuueee

@@DyslexicMitochondria ayyy i watch your videos. nice to see you here

I mean … trolling can be fun. But this? It’s disgusting.

Ironically, hating being alive would also make you live longer.

It's all relative. Kellogg saw others enjoying themselves but he himself enjoyed not needing the same pleasures that others do. He wasn't depressed, he got his pleasure from not indulging himself like common people do.

Personally, I would rather live a short happy life than a long boring life.

Imagine saying that over-indulgence could lead to shorter lives. Oh wait, that's actually true... Kellogg was certainly a overtly religious guy with some weird notions. But he wasn't wrong about everything. The fact that his brother stabbed him in the back and sold his creation to the masses is what amazes me.

@@crowing7 He was kinda right, but he went overboard. Too much sugar is bad. Too much salt is bad. Smoking and alcohol is bad. And it's possible to get STIs from sex. So yeah, it was actually _okay_ advice coming from that time in history where humanity didn't know as much about human biology.

He would have a heart attack if he ate a lot of it too

No kidding, if he saw “Fruit Loops” he’d be screaming historically, like Raiders of the Lost Ark face melt screaming hysterically lmao

@@abemcg3803 wait till he finds out about lucky charms

@@mtnentertainment3454 if you take out the dehydrated marshmallows in Lucky Charms its basically boring cereal. Chips ahoy and cocao puffs would make him shit himself tho.

@@TopShot501st if you take the marshmallows out then it's not lucky charms any more

I'll be telling my grandkids about the great Brownie Skin Saga

It's great marketing/production strategy

I’m the viewer that gets obsessed with a new RU-vid channel every month so it works out.

You know when you do a deep-dive on a Wikipedia article, and you're like "Ooh that's interesting!", "Ohhh that's interesting", "Oh that's also interesting"? That's also Adam. The only difference is he makes videos about it. Having a journaling degree doesn't hurt either tbh

​@@BreakdancePeachAka diving into the rabbit hole.

The South had corn porridge (i.e. grits) for a long time before Kellogg ever showed up.

corn porridge (mealie pap) was also a staple in africa for pretty much as long as the transatlantic slave trade brought corn from the new world.

Corn porridge is grits right? Grits are great.

Why is it bizarre? Oatmeal is porridge made from oats, but he wanted to make porridge from corn, so why is that bizarre? That's like saying we should eat one type of fruit, or meat, or vegetable.

@@trapezius77 no I just thought that it‘s unnecessary because oats already existed.. they were that ”nasty“ food no child liked and could‘ve just eaten that instead of inventing new porridge (apparently grits existed before)

This is true

ikr soos

My opinion: they need to be frosted

So is fish!

Aye, I used to work in a restaurant that serves gluten free parmigiana and that’s how we breadcrumbed the chicken cutlets, works incredibly well

Adam Ragusea has a talent.

There are Adam Ragusea YTPs?

@@dawica Yeah, like a ton of them 😂

@@dawica Yup, and some of them are genuinely funny

hey, whats the actual meaning of YTP?

@@hecky175 RU-vid Poop

as if his ads breaks aren't seamless enough

@@rubiksstudios4584 Very true, the best in the business

BBallBreakdown has the best ad reads, Adam is definitely a close second

@@FennyWhopper Internet Comment Etiquette has the best ads, but very flow breaking.

@@FennyWhopper I disagree, watch Daniel thrasher and you’ll get the best ad reads you’ve ever seen

Kinda interesting how many English speakers pronounce ie as ei

THANK YOU

Check it out [audiofile] dict.leo.org/german-english/zwieback. However: Zwieback indeed means 'baked twice' which correctly spoken sounds like zwei [two]back[baked].

@@andreasvalentiner6554 check out the audio files you sent, it’s pronounced “zwee”

Was looking for this. Painful to listen to someone who repeatedly and with gusto pronounces a foreign word wrong when he tries to be smart and educated about it. I always wonder why people not simply listen to the audio pronunciation when they look up words anyways.

he'd also be disappointed in modern food

Good

Well John Kellog was a total nutjob.

Cheerios are the most bland thing to ever have existed.

Great.

You are talking about the (much more efficient) enzymatic process used in beer making. Driven by the enzymes especially prominent in grains like barley or rye. Adam is talking more about some sort of "brute force" chemical reaction where extended heating will cause the starches to break down eventually. Just adding to water to starch will also break the glycosidic bonds to some degree.

Well, where is the name from? I'm guessing british isles because that's the only place I see "kill" becoming "kell"

Huh, growing up I always had honey milk when sick but never considered to have it as breakfast, interesting

My name is Giovanni Giorgio, but everybody calls me Giorgio.

What is honey milk?

@@TheSlavChef jojo

I had some that I found at the back of my cabinet, it was double sealed but still years old; perfectly delicious.

I feel like you're referring to the sanitarium Lml

Well, to be fair, they do load breakfast cereals up with lots of vitamins. Probably better for you than bacon and eggs.

Eggs in the morning are pretty healthy! A nice scramble without much oil is pretty much pure protein. We can agree that the bacon is probably not the best choice tho xD

I grew up in the US and never ate breakfast cereal. We usually had whole wheat toast with jam, or yogurt. On the weekends, eggs.

@@oaktree__ That's sort of surprising. Breakfast cereals are often eaten on weekdays because they're very quick to prepare for breakfast before going to work or school.

@@kenmore01 yeah, but there are other more healthier sources of vitamins such as, fruits and veggies

Especially because WE didn't have to pay it🙃

@@MrDick-kz8qc what?

@@logixplayz8615 Our forefathers ate the desexualizing cereals for us

But I like Corn Flakes..

@@Sheriff_K Modern corn flakes are the result of Will Kellogg adding sugar and salt, so no worries we good!

Your mother's son? So you?

Huh

@@pseudonym8082 or their brother

Your mother's son. Lol

Wtf lol

You underestimate my oral fixation.

I literally eat handfuls of dry plain unsweetened oatmeal sometimes.

Alternatively, the solution is to just overeat.

Sometimes you want to just have something to eat or more specifically something to chew on so as long as it's not inedibly bland people will still eat a lot

Mr Kellog would probably agree :)

Sometimes being sick will do that to ya. It's better to just have plain food.

I used to eat with marmalade, or with margarine, with or without cheese. Great dipped in tea or hot chocolate.

no chicken soup?

@@fcr8409 Yes, but Zwieback was more common

@@MrBuschi531 i guess they didnt have ginger+garlic+oregan+carrot+chicken to make it....

Jesus has died for our sins. We all die, our body dies. But our souls are eternal. You have to choose now where you want to live after this. Either with God or without Him and His love. We are sinner, by nature. Who hasnt lied ? Stolen ? Have sex before mariage ? Hasnt raised his/her voice at his parents even once ? Even if you dont, have you ever thinking on doing this ? Jesus said even on our thought we sins. That is only a part of 10 commandements. We all have break God law. And the "sanction" for it his death. Eternal death. Thats why God, promise if Him or us doesnt guard His commands He will come, suffer and die for our sins. And God is not a liar, He has made it. Jesus has died so we can live, eternally. Trust and believe in Him, His life, his death, his resurection; Repent/regret/turn away from your sinful nature with all your heart ask for forgiveness; Accept Christ as your Lord and Savior; Receive the Holy Spirit, be born again by the True living God; And live everyday with Him, obey Him, pray and be Holy like Him. God has made us in His image. A spirit, the Holy Spirit, a soul, the Glory if God, a body, Jesus Christ. This is the Good news of salvation, not by our action, but by grace we are saved Be saved today. May God bless you all

I agree. My parents were born and raised in Scandinavia (Sweden and Denmark), so I was raised with knækbrød. I would get anxious if I ran out and I live in Canada. It's kind of funny that a 100% rye knækbrød doesn't compete with the flavour of the topping, but 100% rye rugbrød does compete.

Yea good idea

he answered a similar question in one Q&A, he's not that good at making burgers

@@mislovelover31 oh i didn't know that , thanks for clearing that up , but still i think he can do one , most recipes online aren't so easy to make at home and i sometimes struggle with doneness sometimes His sauce of choice could be interesting

Check out J. Kenji Lopez-Alt's Food Lab blog. Lots of good burger techniques there.

@@FreeBroccoli great! Thanks

What if it doesn't

@@tyocre1433 I don't know, at this point I've pretty much given up counting

@@antoniososa2798 understandable

I ate boiled chicken gizzards today

You generally don’t reach out to sponsors, they reach out to you. Even if his relationship with that company is such that he can reach out, which is rather rare, they’re under no obligation to take him up on it.

@@kaitlyn__L I know, I know, it just would've fit.

I prefer this way. By separating the content and the sponsor, it removes the possibility of the sponsor influencing into the veracity and integrity of the content for the sake of the advert.

Who else?

As someone who's currently living in Battle Creek, I can confirm this is true.

@@abrahamalvarez8692 I live north of BC in Bedford Township.

my grandmother made us palenta in the morning when we visited. we usually had it with milk and honey, but sometimes she'd let us have it with coffee and we would feel all grown up

Oh yeah, my grandpa went to the river every early morning and fished up a few small freshwater fish, went home, fried them in oil and ate with rice and some garden herbs my grandma picked and that was breakfast.

IT’S KNOXVILLE!

"Wod fir?!"

Fun fact: Shredded wheat first publicly debuted in the 1893 World's Columbian Expo of Chicago. Mild coincidence, I assume

I'm glad someone else caught onto that

Edit: so it turns out this is a really dumb suggestion I made. But I'll leave it up rather than delete it, since there was a good conversation that came afterwards. I'm going to guess that the original German is zweiback and somehow it got mutated into zwieback in English. Official English pronunciation is "ZWEE-back" although the ancestral German side of my family is begging me to say "TSVAI-bock"

@@vinnytube1001 uhhh maybe. In modern highGerman it's "Zwieback" which I'd transliterate as 'Tsveebuck' for Americans. Zwie- and Zwei are both used in different words. Zwei just means 2 by itself. Zwie- is more of a prefix, you never see it by itself. But ye Mittelhochdeutsch and Altdeutsch were not as centrilised as modern Hochdeutsch is so they had all kinds of words. It's still kinda like that today with the different dialects of German. Language is not easy to pin down. Words do strange things.

@@Broockle Hah, thanks for that. For sure my ancestors were neither wealthy nor well educated. Probably from Rheinland-Pfalz or thereabouts, we don't know for sure. My grandparents favorite dish was Saumagen, if that helps. ;) Of course by the time I was growing up, our use of German was down to just a few words sprinkled into a 99.9% English vocabulary.

@@vinnytube1001 Saumagen xD I'm dying. I gotta look dat up. It always cracks me up just how blatantly honest the German naming conventions can be. I'm from Vienna but my Mom grew up in Rosenheim. So I grew up hearing the different words used in the different areas a lot and I'm used to explaining words from one side to the other. German's tend to get very confused when they hear Viennese xD

@@Broockle No doubt. My intuition - which I accept was wrong - about zwie/zwei being mixed up is because the sound of ei/ie are either reversed (or just different) between German and English. It trips up a lot of Americans trying to pronounce German words. Seemed totally reasonable that a misspelling could enter our lexicon (oven though it didn't).

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be soaked in something, like a bowl of milk or you dip it into the tea. I mean it just tastes like sawdust otherwise, they're not biscotti after all

Assuming that’s what I in the UK would call porridge, that’s very understandable. I didn’t even do it for weight reasons, I just got tired of being hungry so soon after eating. The only cereals I kept bothering with are Weetabix and fruit ‘n fibre because they also kept me satisfied. Bacon and eggs also keeps you going for a long time, and the fat content is generally also in the right ratio vs protein (such as weight trainers look for) to maximise absorption, and it sorta serves to replace the complex carbs as the fuel (while the protein serves as the building blocks for your body to build/repair). Where porridge is complex carbs and protein (from both the milk and the oats). I’ll usually slice a banana on top or add some berries with porridge, or Weetabix, or fruit ‘n fibre, for the quick pick me up in the morning (not to mention helping with the five a day).

I stopped eating breakfast cereal also. I wanted to avoid added sugar. Most breakfast cereals have added sugar.

I loved eating soggy ass cornflakes and my sister saw me one morning and said: "you'd probably love oatmeal you sick fuck" and i tried it and not only was it great but it also kept me full for quite some time

just eat less and move more. So as long as your diet is full of nutrients youll be fine. If your fat is made up of shit quality toxic sludge then you wont take in nutrients and feel perpetually hungry every time your body has to fall back on crap fat stores. Seasonally people gain fat for the winter and then shed most of it due spring. Holding onto same fat stores for years is a bad thing. Lots of things can go wrong. The lower your body mass (still healthy) the easier it is for the body to manage.

A high protein breakfast helps with eating a smart lunch

Im already excited

Looking forward to it^^

Who cares?

I thought it was only me, thanks for commenting on this :)

I think it's the auto focus

it probably contains something that keeps your bread more stable.

Also hope you appreciate his constant Magic Spoon sponsorships then lulz!
