It's interesting how though some of these places have been around for so long, there are some products that have only been released recently. Cherry Coke, Toaster Strudel, and a Blizzard (started at Dairy Queen) have only been around since 1985!

Anything in my fridge has been around longer than you'd think... Some of it may have developed simple language skills. Near the back.

These were all really interesting, love the history that went along with the products, great job! BTW, the Pillsbury Doughboy's name is "Poppin Fresh" I had a plushy of him when I was young..so cute!

It’s funny to watch an old Little Rascals episode seeing the Tabasco label still looks about the same.

Working in the grocery retail sector fot nearly twenty years, you get an affinity with all of the foods, brands, and ingredients. I knew a lot of these brands histories, but learned a few new ones too.

Kikkoman was founded in 1603!

I like the other narrator too, but christ people, there's nothing wrong with this one. People give her too much hate

This channel is always the best at what they do. We wish them nothing but the best.

Fun fact: Dr Pepper is older then Coca Cola by two years

The little tangents on the other historical events occurring at the same time was super weird

I knew that hardtack was a staple of the civil war but I didn’t realize that Keebler was the manufacturer. During the 1980s my dad and I preferred Keebler graham crackers over Nabisco 😊

What the heck is the carrier pigeon side bit about?

Chili Cheese Fritos are the best snack food ever, and you can't get them in Canada. I have only ever had them while travelling in the US.

My dad used to put Tabasco sauce on everything when I was 12 years old. That has been over half a century.

Love the A Christmas Story reference! Poor little Ralphie, if only he didn't utter "the queen-mother of dirty words"!

I never knew Keebler was that old.

In the early-90's I dated a girl who was a nanny for a successful young couple who lived in the Chicago suburbs... both of them Kraft executives. They used to give us these huge manufacturer coupon books for Kraft branded foods. Not like $1-2 off garbage, but completely free items. Thousands of dollars worth. At the time I was surprised how many brands were under the Kraft umbrella. You could "buy" half of all the items in a typical grocery store. These days it's even bigger of course, with the Heinz merger.

With the exceptions of Fritos, Coca-Cola, and Kellogg's, I had no idea these brands were this old! I'd like to see a video exploring the full history of Frito-Lay, including the original mascot Frito Kid, who was popular enough to be an animatronic in Frito-Lay's Disneyland restaurant Casa De Fritos. A video on restaurants that have been around forever would also be cool, especially Jack In The Box, since although it's popular, not enough people know about it's past. Opened in 1951, with the original Jack being scary looking, it introduced a lot of novel ideas, although In N Out beat them to the drive thru concept. In the late 60s, Purina [yes, THAT Purina] bought out the chain and went crazy expanding it. In the early 70s, Jack In The Box gave Jack a redesign and a new voice: Paul Winchell, Tigger himself. They also gave Jack a cast of friends. Three of the animated ads [In The Park, Baseball, Jack In The Box Animated Commercial 1970], and three comics [How A House Makes Noise, Where Oil Comes From, How Pain Helps Us] are on KZfaq, but that's pretty much it, as there's surprisingly little info on the 70s incarnation of Jack. In the 80s, they blew Jack up, but when E Coli struck in 1993, they brought Jack back. Honestly, Jack In The Box may actually need it's own entire video, considering how interesting it's history is, which the company is sadly trying to ignore. They didn't even acknowledge the previous Jack mascot eras during the 70th anniversary in 2021!

“Bland southern food”? Clearly you’ve never been to Louisiana.

Whats all this "padding" about pidgeons ?

One thing that just occurred to me is most of these companies have never had to change their logo, and if they did, it was only a minor change. That's incredible!

Did not know Del Monte was a hotel, I figured it was a Italian family.

Got a love those random unrelated history segments to buff out runtime

I love that Pemberton made Coke as a replacement for morphine and then put fucking cocaine in the original recipe.

Very interesting video! Love learning about all these favorite foods! Seeing the dinosaur eggs oatmeal brought me back memories. Good times! ❤😊

Fun fact. The rooster on the Kellogg's cornflakes box has a name. Corny the Rooster.

SMH all this hate for corn flakes.

I already knew Tabasco has been around a long time from watching Back to the Future Part III. You see a bottle on the bar and I'm pretty sure it was added to Docs "wake up juice" lol.

King Arthur Flour Mill is the oldest. Pre-revolution war 1776.

good video

Nothing like having the food I'm currently cooking show up on the episode I'm watching haha now I'm off to eat my entire box of Kraft Mac n cheese

Another banger 🔥. Thanks for all you do ❤

I like this narrator too, it's nice to have different ppl for different videos

Tabasco might be 150 years old but it was japanese and koreans that taught me the sauce taste great on spaghetti. As if I needed more of a reason to use it on basically everything.

Ernie and his baker elves baked cookies and crackers using Mr. Keebler's recipe. They improved upon it.

Fun Fact: Martha Stewart has reported to often eat cheese slices that come in the plastic.

What do carrier pigeons have to do with Heinz ketchup? I'm confused by that tangent. Great video otherwise, miss the guy narrator.

Entenmann's is the least bad of the crappy national bakers. Like many other East Coast brands, they weren't available in California when I grew up there decades ago, I never heard of them until I moved to the Mid West.

In Canada they call Kraft Macaroni &Cheese Kraft dinner. Its very popular.

11:48. Fun fact. In Chile, rolled oats were unheard of as food for people until Quaker Oats arrived (in the early 60s, maybe?), to the point that even nowadays people call the product "quaker." I was a thin girl, and I distinctly remember a lady talking to my mum and recommending her to give me "quaker" so I became plump. My mum didn't know what "quaker" was. 😋

Everything on this list is part of my Booomer dining experience.

The guy that invented cocacola was not in fact using sugar as a way to treat his addiction. The coke part of cocacola comes from cocaine, at the time coke was invented this was in everything from eyedrops to cough syrup for kids. while the drug is no longer in the soda the cocacola company remains the only company to be able to legally import coca leaves as they found a way to extract the flavor they want without the mind altering substances.

chocolate chip cookies history

Regarding Tobasco... My family is directly related to that family. Years ago, there was a disagreement regarding putting the family name on the sauce. We compromised and said they need to change the spelling. Man, I could be hot sauce royalty if my family wasn't so stubborn.

Best channel on KZfaq 🎉

Consider a Episode on Restaurant chains started by celebrities, Johnny Carson’s, Mahalia Jackson’s. Lots of Short Lived possible subjects….

Why not randomly pair Lincoln with any number of brands that existed in his day? Did he have a particular liking for cookies? And, no, Keebler was not a national brand in those days. It was part of a network of bakers and the brand itself would have likely been regional at first. Lincoln was long gone before Keebler became a nationally recognized brand.

I really like this narrator, I don't know why everybody complains about her so much. I find the other one a bit annoying sometimes

Hahahaha 😏🤪plitthhhh!!! My states soda pop is older than coca cola....Dr.pepper will always be one of the first and better tasting cola's lol😂

Coca Cola was founded in Georgia and Pepsi in NC but the headquarters is in NY

Enjoyed this video! Liked the history bits--

Bonnie Tyler's song "Holding Out For a Hero" (which is awesome) was made for the Footloose soundtrack, was on Shrek 2, and also on BOTH the Super Mario Bros. and Tetris film soundtracks.

A video about Cereal and how boxes have changed over time and free gifts to nothing at all in the box

The oatmeal surprise me the most

I am surprised that you make no mention of Joseph Augustus Biedenharn. The person first credited to Bottle Coca Cola in 1894.

I have never really liked the sour taste of Tabasco...

Great Dukes of Hazard car horn at the end! My younger brother was named after Luke Duke from that show.

A+ video! Like a cool American food odyssey!

Here in Australia only Heinz i grew up with is the tin and jar foods, eew coca-cola, Oat cereal we only have Uncle Tobys, Kellogg's, Kraft is o.k. and corn flakes LOL so bad... And most of these foods have never seen here in Australia

Really want some keebler E. L. Fudge cookies now.

Coca-Cola wins me over Pepsi any day. I know there are cheaper options, but Coke, Heinz ketchup and French's Yellow mustard will always be staples in my poor-ass life.

Don’t forget that Karl Benz created the first ICE automobile in 1886 too!

you left out the reason coca cola was invented to help him overcome his morphine addiction. the VERY reason its called coke.

Tabasco on fried potatoes and over easy eggs, yum

Entenmann's Crumb Cake is the best 😛

Both narrators are awesome. Video quality is great too. Always look forward to watching them.

Here's a unique story: x According to Mashed, Queen Elizabeth used to eat the same breakfast everyday: Kellogg's Corn Flakes. x In 2022, Kellogg's introduced Queen Flakes to celebrate Queen Elizabeth's historic run.

I would humbly like to ask what the music track at 16:57 is called. It's a wonderful beat and the "Shazam" app couldn't find the name of it - as usual.

From the history I know, Tabasco was mass produced for the WW2 era. Food was bland and weak, therefore Tabasco was a easy way to make the food edible. That’s how Tabasco rally came into the mainstream, because so many vets came back to America with an appetite for Tabasco

I love the video but how dare anyone disrespect the Frito!

LOVE this lady narrator!

Fascinating!

Picked the wrong flavor for oatmeal, everyone I know feels stuck with the peaches and cream at the end of the box lol

I honestly have never thought this and I'm 33. Its pretty well known most of everything has been arounmd forever and owned by the same handful of companies

Mentioning the rough riders cuisine without mentioning them getting dysentery.

wtf was that pigeon tangent?

Yeah great narration the other guy just gets me hooked every time.

She has a nice voice I can listen to her all day.

Do one on the history of chili

Young keanu reeves selling corn flakes❤

"Bland southern food." That's quite the oxymoron.

Yum Entmands black and white donuts 🍩 😋

Man when was the last time you had some Heinz green ketchup?! 😏

At 3:03 they spelled Heinz wrong

Enjoy the content, people! Be grateful she isn't AI! Honesty, I like her and believe she is from the Mental Floss List Show. Love not hate, please!

Kraft didn't come up with velveeta. It was one guy trying to make cheese that would melt better.

U left out they put cocaine in Coca-Cola back then

That clip at 7:55 is from the "Mean" Joe Greene Coke commercial (1979: "Hey Kid, Catch!"). That is a classic commercial!

Kraft Foods began in Stockton Illinois.

Most of the food that I actually eat our brands that have been around for us around 200 years

Much like Eddie, Forest Gump is in fact is just as edible as that guy who went missing a year back.

Oooo cool

I didn't realize that "Mean Joe Green" commercial was so famous, there is a Family Guy clip about it!

Ah yes, the best food; carrier pigeons

Dr Pepper is a year older than Coke.

That Marcia Brady in the Pillsbury commercial?

Macandcheese rules

awesome 😊

Is it possible that our narrator is Stevie from Good Mythical Morning!?!

not a single one of these were around longer than I thought.
