	General Foods Corporation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		General Foods Corporation was a company established under that name by Marjorie Merriweather Post in 1929.
		General Foods, formerly shorthand for the General Foods Corporation, is now a brand of Kraft Foods.
		1985 - General Foods was acquired by Philip Morris for $5.6 billion, the largest non-oil acquisition ever; four years later (1989), after the even larger acquisition of Kraft Foods, Philip Morris combines the two into a company called Kraft General Foods.

		Although General Foods Corporation in the U.S. has traditionally been using palletised shipping successfully in the early years of their introduction, it was found that the quality of the wooden pallets began to deteriorate as shipping volumes grew and the pallet exchange pool expanded to include more and more of other shippers and customers.
		General Foods then evaluated the use of the disposable slipsheet in place of the wooden pallets.
		General Foods concluded that disposable slipsheets are better suited to current needs and conditions and they also believed that a substantial part of unitised shipping volume must be converted to slipsheets if the food industry is to continue to receive the benefits of unitised handling in the future.

	session 4-4
		One category of technically designed foods receiving much attention recently is that of intermediate moisture products which must be shelf-stable, ready to eat, soft to the touch, moist to the bite, acceptable in flavor and texture, satisfying, nutritious, and packagable.
		To evaluate moisture mimetic foods for acceptability a taste/texture profile panel was specifically trained to judge prototype samples against similar bars made without addition of the moisture mimetic composition.
		The foregoing are Just some examples of technically designed foods of the future which are not only for the average consumer but are also for the military and the astronaut, or aquanaut, since they fit admirably into the rigid projected requirements of stability, compactness, high caloric and nutritional value, convenience, and variety.

	Our History : Birds Eye (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Though the practice of freezing food has been traced to 1626, Birds Eye began to take shape in the early 1920s when Clarence Birdseye noticed that the fish he caught while on a trip near the Arctic quickly froze.
		General Seafood Corporation moves to Gloucester, Massachusetts, with Birdseye's latest invention: the double belt freezer.
		On March 6 in Springfield, Massachusetts, General Foods, via Birds Eye, conducts what is now called "the Springfield Experiment" in 18 retail stores to see how consumers will react to frozen foods; today, the experiment is considered the birth of retail frozen foods.

		GENERAL FOODS CORPORATION, squarely decided that the law could indeed be used to stop exploitation of children.
		Following the California Supreme Court decision the General Foods case did not go to trail, but was apparently settled in a way that obviously has not stopped General Foods (now Kraft, which is owned by Altria, which used to be called Philip Morris) or its competitors from continuing to behave in very similar ways.
		But the General Foods case is still good law, and can be cited in a wide variety of contexts, wherever its underlying principles fit, in courts around the nation, by public interest lawyers seeking to stop commercial exploitation of children.

	Birds Eye Foods : Clarence Birdseye
		Although the practice of preserving food by freezing has been traced back to as early as 1626, and the first commercial venture in producing frozen food to 1875, Birdseye is credited with developing, refining, and making the quick freezing process workable.
		Birdseye made two major contributions to the concept of freezing food-the importance of freezing food so rapidly that there would be no damage to its cellular structure (affecting taste, texture, and appearance) and freezing food in a package that could be sold directly to the consumer.
		It became obvious that considerable capital would be required to properly develop this new frozen food industry, and in June 1929, the Birdseye business, by then owned by the General Foods Company, was sold for $22 million to Frosted Foods Company, a corporation formed and owned by Postum Company and Goldman-Sachs Trading Corporation.
