Oooh, I would agree with you vagabond2. Cereals were created by Doctors and introduced in hospitals just after the depression/WW2 era for filling, and to help underfed children gain weight back (circa after the war). However, it wasn't until circa the 1950's that the sugary cereals/marketing to children as we now know it came into effect.
