Ellen G. White Estate
Sharing the Vision
Hi there! When I was boy a heard a pastor saying that he had read that the "corn flakes" recipe was given to Ellen White in vision, and she passed the recipe to Dr. Kellogs. Is that statement correct? Or is just unreal? Thank you, ___________
Dear Brother ___________,
Thank you for contacting the Ellen G. White Estate. I have never heard this claim before. After 15 years of working with the Ellen G. White Estate, I think I would have heard about something this remarkable if it were true. I searched the CD-ROM for "corn flakes" and found no reference such as this. If the story were true, I cannot imagine that Arthur L. White would have left it out of the six-volume biography of Mrs. White. I would say that your suspicions about the story are well-founded. Since we lack any written support for it, I believe you should consider it as untrue. Thanks for checking! God bless.
