One big problem at the sanitarium was the patients’ diets（饮食）.The patients needed healthy diets,but it was also important for the food to taste good.Will was trying to find a good food choice（选择） to take the place of the bread,but it wasn’t going very well.Then,by accident,Will found something even better.He left some wheat（小麦） to cook too long.When it was rolled out,it formed large,thin flakes（薄片）.He tried to serve it to the patients,and they loved it！In fact,they liked it so much that they wanted breakfast flakes sent to them even after they left the sanitarium.So Will started a new business in 1884 — selling packaged breakfast flakes.Before long,Kellogg’s breakfast cereal was popular in other countries, too.Today,there are many kinds of breakfast cereal.But it all started with one man and one idea.
