Fun Food Holidays™
March 7th, 2025 is National Cereal Day

National Cereal Day

Seeing all the brightly colored boxes of sweet cereal adorning their own aisle at the supermarket makes it difficult to appreciate that breakfast foods made from cereal grains were first marketed as a health food! Rolled oats, granola, corn flakes, and puffed rice all were seen as highly nutritious, digestible ready-to-eat breakfast foods! Celebrate science's contribution to "the most important meal of the day," with or without a prize in the box, on National Cereal Day!
