Not even a month after Phelps issued an apology for a picture showing the Olympic swimmer smoking from a bong, Kellogg has dropped Phelps as a sponsorship. Phelps was featured on the Cover of Kellogg's Frosted Flakes and Corn Flakes. The Michigan company said that Phelps' action is "not consistent with the image of Kellogg." His contract expires at the end of the month. Phelps should have never confirmed it was him in the photo.
