A California business man tried to
find some food combination that
would not overload the stomach in the
morning, but that would produce
energy.
He writes:
For years I was unable to find a
breakfast food that had nutrition
enough to sustain a business man
without overlooking his stomach,
causing indigestion and kindred all

Being a very busy and also a very
nervous man, I decided to give up
breakfast altogether. But luckily I
was induced to try Grape-Nuts.
