Reply to TIL the BBC released a 'Green Book' in 1949 to define comedy guidelines. Among some of the banned topics were jokes about fig leaves and vulgar use of the word 'basket'. by morecharts

Reminds my of when I was a child. My parents never used "n-------" except to say "Brazil nuts" since that was the only phrase for them at the time.

Reply to TIL Kellogg's Corn Flakes were invented by accident. A batch of wheat based dough was left out overnight by accident, started to ferment, so Will Kellogg decided to roll it to see if this would squeeze the water out. Instead, they got wheat flakes.

Your description sounds like wheat flakes were invented by accident, but not corn flakes.
