Post Toasties was an early American breakfast cereal made by Post Foods. It was named for its originator, C. W. Post, and intended as the Post version of corn flakes.[1][2]

Post Toasties were originally sold as Elijah's Manna[3] (c. 1904) until criticism from religious groups (and consequent loss of sales) led to a change of name in 1908.[4][5]

As of August 2016, Post Toasties are listed as discontinued on the PostFoods web site. This includes flavors Frosted Flakes, O's, and Corn Flakes.[6]
