Do you understand what capacitors are used for? Inductors are the electrical dual of capacitors, and so are used for similar things, except what capacitors do to voltage, inductors do to current, where capacitors would be in parallel, inductors would be in series, etc. â Phil Frost Aug 2 '13 at 14:04.
Invention of Modern Breakfast Cereal The first breakfast cereal, Granula (named after granules) was invented in 1863 by James Caleb Jackson, operator of the Jackson Sanitoriu â¦ m in Dansville, New York and a staunch vegetarian. Despite its high fiber content, the cereal never became popular.
Quaker Oats, the oldest hot cereal company, having been founded on the success of oatmeal, acquired puffed-rice technology in the early 20th century. Soon puffed cereals, stripped of fiber (it was thought injurious to digestion) and laden with sugar to induce children to eat, became the norm.
