ANSWERS – Food Quiz 3

  1. Corn flakes were accidentally invented at the Battle Creek Sanitarium in 1890 by John Harvey Kellogg and his brother Will Keith Kellogg. They were trying to make granola but mistakenly flaked wheat, which they then toasted and served to their patients.
  2. The Twinkie was invented by James Dewar, a baker for the Continental Baking Company, in 1930. He named the snack cake after seeing a billboard in St. Louis for “Twinkle Toe Shoes,” which inspired the name “Twinkie.”
  3. The unique recipe of Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) consists of 11 secret herbs and spices, which Colonel Sanders famously kept under wraps, making it one of the most iconic secrets in the food industry. The exact combination of these ingredients is still unknown to the public, contributing to the chicken’s distinct and beloved flavor.
