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.
Hot cereals have been around a long time - like porridge, oatmeal, barley, grits and such. Cold cereals however started in New York in the mid 1800s, by a man named Jackson who mixed like bran and graham - it was hard as a rock and had to be soaked overnight to be edible (probably why it was cold cereal). It was called Granula. The one that was the BIG deal was Battle Creek Michigan.
