From: Kellogg's


When mornings grow crisp, send 'em off to school feeling o-boya! Give em' substantial Corn-Soys!

Kellogg's Corn-Soya Shred Cereal was introduced as "New Grand Flavor - New Great Food - Twin Treat!"

An ad describing the cereal read as follows:

"Mother! Never before a cereal kile Kellogg's new Corn-Soya! Tops in breakfast cereals for body-building protein! And it's ready to eat! Sweet, rich toasted shreds!

Especially good for children! Corn-Soya is a flavorful blend of high-energy corn with high-protein soya. We all need protein. But children need it even more - to build fine strong bodies!

When mornings grow crisp, send 'em off to school feeling "o-boya"! Give em' substantial Corn-Soys! In family-sized packages."

In the mid-1950's, Corn Soya was promoted with the description, "high-protein for man power."

Company Description: Kellogg's was originally founded as the Battle Creek Toasted Corn Flake Company in 1906. The company's founder Will Keith Kellogg is credited with inventing corn flakes along with his brother John Harvey Kellogg. The company was renamed the Kellogg Company in 1922...

It was my favorite breakfast by far. I, too, will be 80 this year and would really like to enjoy it again.

Too Bad Corn Soya is no longer. It was my favorite, along with Krumbles.

In 1977, I wrote to Kellogg's and asked that it be returned to the inventory. They advised that they had no plans to bring it back. Too bad. Today I can't have sugar. I would have loved to have it.

This was our favorite cereal in the 50s when we lived in the midwest. We never saw it again after we left there and came East, but we have never forgotten it. If they bring it back, I will probably eat cold cereal again!

Agree with all above comments. I can still remember what it tasted like. There has been nothing like it since. Bring this back!

I've never forgotten my grandfather introducing me to this cereal back in the early 50's. Really wish it was still available. I loved it and it was all I'd eat for breakfast.
