Larry and Connie about to enter
Kellogg's "Cereal City, USA" museum.
It is a simulation of the area's major tourist
attraction when Larry and Norm
were in school: the visitors' tour through
Kellogg's Battle Creek cereal plant.
The famous tours were halted many years ago by
OSHA,
and Kellogg's built this replica in 1998.
Tony the Tiger officially
welcomed Connie, who enjoyed the graphic arts
rooms
and rested on a forklift at the end of the
factory tour.
Whoville props used in the new
Grinch movie were on display in the lobby of the
replica of Battle Creek's main movie theater of
the past, the Bijou.
In a giant kitchen inside the Bijou, W. K.
Kellogg and C. W. Post actors discuss
the history of the cereal industry.
At the exit is a replica of another Battle
Creek landmark from our youth:
Sullivan's Ice Cream shop.
