词汇 | post toasties |
词源 | Post Toasties. Charles William Post was good at choosing names for the many food products he invented, which included Postum and Grape-Nuts. However, he made a big mistake when he marketed the breakfast cereal Elija’s Manna in 1904. This biblical name appealed to few, and the cereal didn’t sell until he renamed it Post Toasties. |
