From: General Mills
Introduced in 1968


According to a television advertisement:

"You may not know it, but now there's a corn flake from Total. Total Corn Flakes have twice the vitamin and mineral nutrition of Kellogg's... and they taste better too... Remember, the best corn flakes are from Total."

A cereal box in 1987 showed the first five ingredients to be degermed yellow cornmeal, sugar, salt, tricalcium and dicalcium phosphate (provides calcium) and cereal malt syrup.

Company Description: Officially created in 1928, General Mills traces it's history back to the 1860's and the ownership of two flour mills. Since then, the company has become the world's 6th largest food company - marketing to over 100 countries... Read on and see all cereals from General Mills

I still miss Total Corn Flakes. I bought them a couple of times a week. Ate them plain, in place of potato chips.

Another great cereal that some bozo executive decided to yank from the shelves. In favor of more sugary superhero or cartoon-linked cereal. Sad.

No other Corn Flake can compare to Total Corn Flakes as far as taste and nutritional value. I haven't given up hope that I will someday walk into my local supermarket and find them on the shelf. PLEASE BRING THEM BACK!
