Popsicle
Wait till you discover this company’s incredible history! When an 11-year-old Oakland, California boy left his drink outside overnight with a stick in it, he devised the Popsicle recipe. When he returned to grab it, he saw that the water inside had frozen solid. When Francis Epperson was an adult, he made it public. Joe Lowe bought the rights to the song when it became an instant smash for him. After that, the man regretted his actions and acknowledged that he had deteriorated in the intervening years. Good Humor purchased the popsicle in 1989 while it was still a subsidiary of Unilever. As a result, it is now a subsidiary of the parent firm that owns the other brands, which is English-Dutch.
Purina
Purina began feeding farm animals in 1894 when George Robinson, William H. Danforth, and William Andrews founded the company. Their invention became a financial success by accident. Despite the fact that Nestle is better known for its food than its pet food, it purchased Purina in December 2011 for $10.3 billion. Purina and Friskies PetCare, the company’s pet food division, merged, prompting this decision. On the other hand, Purina is still a household name in the United States and worldwide.
