Plot

Set in 1963 Michigan, the film follows corporate rivals Post and Kellogg’s as they race to design a cake that may revolutionize breakfast.

Based on the preceding glimpse, we can see the inside of a toaster, with its blazing heating components. Listening to Jerry Seinfeld’s voice in the background takes us to a more carefree era, the early 1960s. According to Seinfeld’s soft narration, there was a time when a hot bowl of cereal with cold, refreshing milk was the ideal accompaniment to sweet, crunchy flakes for breakfast—not a dish of avocado toast or a gourmet smoothie—but a bowl of steaming cereal.

Original History

It all started in 1963 when Michigan got involved in a tasty rivalry. Huge rivalry erupted between cereal business heavyweights Kellogg’s and Post as they vied to create the next game-changing breakfast item. Not content with only serving flakes or puffs, they dreamed of a portable pastry that would revolutionize morning rituals with its deliciousness, portability, and ease of use. There were sweet plots, high-stakes espionage, and a morning pastry that would go on to become a symbol of childhood in this epic breakfast conflict.
