Strange Country Ep. 71: John Harvey Kellogg

Why is there a Rooster on every box of Corn Flakes? In ep. 71 of Strange Country, co-hosts Kelly and Beth look into the life of J.H. Kellogg, his emphasis on diet and his extreme belief in total celibacy. His obsession to tamp down all sexual desire through bland foods and actual mutilation led to the creation of the corn flakes we see on the shelves today. Theme music: Resting Place by A Cast of Thousands.
