From: Independent / Undefined
Introduced in 1901


Produced by The Korn-Crisp Co. Limited.

Magazine ads from 1901 and 1902 made the following claims about this cereal:

• Large Flakes
• Clean and uniform
• Crisp Pop-Corn Taste
• Pleases Everyone
• Delicious but vitalizing
• Perfect food for athletes
• Children thrive on it
• 35% more brain and nerve food than oatmeal.

The following is text from a 1901 ad which showed pictured down the side corresponding to the copy:

This is a box of Korn-Krsip

This is the Malt
That flavors the
Box of Korn-Krisp

This is the Chap
That Likes the Malt
And the Corn in the
Box of Korn-Krisp.

These are the Parents
that raise the Chap
That likes the Malt,
As well as the Corn
Combined in the
Box of Korn Krisp.

These are the bowls
That are served every Morn
To the Chap and the Parents, to who he was born
For they relish the Malted Flakes of Corn
That make up the Box of Korn-Krisp.

Company Description: The company classification of "Independent / Undefined" is a catch-all for several cereals in our database. This category includes 1) cereals from smaller companies with a near-national distribution; 2) cereals whose manufacturer we've been unable to determine; and 3)...
