It is illegal to sell corn flakes on Sunday.

Status: Historical / Repealed

The Law Explained

This is a classic remnant of American 'blue laws' designed to strictly observe the Sabbath. Selling certain manufactured goods, including secular cereals like corn flakes, was considered inappropriate for a day of rest. While you could buy basic staples, Kellogg's finest was strictly a weekday treat.
