Actually Kellogg’s is called “Kellogg’s” not
In every case it’s correct to say “Kellogg’s”. Why? Because the man who founded “Kellogg’s” was called John Harvey Kellogg. As the cereal brands were therefore originally (John Harvey) Kellogg’s brand, the name of the company is “Kellogg’s” not “Kellogg’s's” or “Kelloggs’s”.
In the case of his name ending in an S, it would be “Kelloggs’ “, not “Kelloggs’s”, anyway.
good point John!!! not sure about the rest of these comments, frustrated teachers with too much time on their hands perhaps??? If in doubt don’t use any punctuation or lots of it! Isn’t that the fashion now??????????????????????????????????????/
how about “flavored in his mouth” I didn’t know that things were flavored in your mouth, I figured they are flavored before you put them in your mouth!
i no this is not the point of the site i am a first time looker and am shocking at spelling and grammer lol so i obviously missed all the valid points u have all picked up on lol but did any one else notice on the 2nd line “good fresh milk”? ………..i mean apposed 2 what exactly lol……bad sour milk ? wat else u goni put in cerial… plus how many time did they say kelloggs corn flakes ano its an add but by the end of it i hated corn flakes lol
cheers guys ps i think its a fail cause its a shit add lol honey nut all the way!! xxx
I give up. (“who’s” is correct, as is “Kellogg’s”).
depending on your preference, it could be Kellogg’s Corn Flakes havehad. Though it is a brand name and could be read either way.
Or it could also be the fragment “Both young and old!”
- needs an oxford comma after “thin”
- “has had” should be “have had”
“More that 50 years…”
“That” instead of “than”
Fail: “more that 50 years…”
Fail: capitalization of “50 years… Both young and old!”
Not fail: I’d prefer a serial comma after “thin,” but that’s a stylistic choice. See, e.g., http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_comma
The phrase “flavored in his mouth” is grammatically correct, but it’s a strange sentence construction.
Unless they’re omitting something from quoted material, the ellipses at the end should be a period.
Comma after ‘good’
last line – apostrophe in “Kellogg’s” should be just “Kelloggs”.
and why do they need 3 period stops at the end of the sentences?
HA Ronny – it’s taken me 3 reads to notice the “that” instead of “than”!! good spot!
Good on Ronny!!
Also, corn flakes really aren’t that good.
What are the corn flakes like before he puts them in his mouth? Soggy, thick, and flavorless?
YOU GUYYYYS, it’s “This is how THESE FLAKES, ….” get it? These FLAKES! As in BLOKES, or idiots!
Kellogg’s is called “Kelloggs’s”. So the final “Kellogg’s” (and arguably the other two) should actually be, “Kellogg’s'”, or strictly “Kellogg’s's”.
An easy one; they spelt ‘flavoured’ wrong.
@James
Which can also be written “Kelloggs’s” yet be correct.

is it that fact that the “young man” has a bow tie and looks old?

Appetizing with a z? Or am I the only one who finds that weird?
@mike
“Appetizing” is the Americanised way of spelling “appetising” and is grammatically correct.
@Mart
no it’s just that it’s spelled the american way
I think the only really blatant error is “More that 50 years”. It should say than, not “that”.
@Mart
Well, in America, it’s spelled “flavored”. It is spelled correctly. The spelling just depends on where one lives, I guess.
lmao guys it says “more that 50 years” should be “more than 50 years.” how hard was that?
it says young man, than boy?????
@Molly
yes i got that to your right good job lol
Um, ‘more that 50 years’… it should be THAN people!!! and flavoured is spelled correctly if you’re speaking british english.
This whole conversation is full of geeks. Why waste your time on this terrible site?
how about “flavored in his mouth” I didn’t know that things were flavored in your mouth, I figured they are flavored before you put them in your mouth!
That’s a good one. It says that Kellogg’s has had an (appetizing “power over people” for many years). That’s quite some power!
I kind of thing he has too many fingers…
**think
@robyn
How can 50 years be both young and old?
UMMM I think everyone should stop commenting and realize once and for all that the error is: “for more that 50 years”. THAN, not that. The end.
The fail is that they are flavored in his mouth. sounds like a fail to me
