Something to think about when eating your cornflakes

I've been browsing the Science Museum website today (still not well enough to do actual work involving braincells, so watching Buffy and webrowsing mostly)

Came across this entry on John Harvey Kellogg, which I found amusing enough to share.  It's always fascinating to watch as views change on what is/is not good for your health...

I can heartily recommend The Road To Wellville (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0111001/) which is a very amusing film set against the creation of the cornflake and is mostly set it Kellogg's sanitarium with Anthony Hopkins playing John Kellogg.

I'll keep an eye out for it.

If you want to know more about Kellogg's ideas see The Road to Wellville
