During the 1930’s, Kellogg’s decided to get in the vitamin game and we can see that their ad was suggesting that their vitamins would give women such vitality, they could actually work even harder on their homes while also looking cuter for working harder. Luckily such a ridiculous message wouldn’t cut it now.
