 Kix (cereal) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kix, the first "puffed" cereal, was introduced in 1937 by the General Mills cereal company of Golden Valley, Minnesota.
Breakfast cereals were originally developed as baked flakes until the 1920s and 1930s, when a new technology of puffing was introduced.
The first cereal to use the new technology was Kix, created in 1937, as the pellets were expanded into small balls, though later cereals such as Cheerios used the same technology with other shapes.
