August 14, 20196 yr Pretty fascinating look at the creation of the food industry in America, and how it exploded after WWII. The major pioneers who became some of the richest families in America- Kellogg, Heinz, Birdseye, Mars, Hershey, the whole McDonalds Bros/Ray Kroc story, Harlan Sanders, etc. Highly recommend it.

August 15, 20196 yr Watched about 20 min and all that was discussed or visually represented was Heinz “discovering” his ketchup recipe. not staying past the commercial break
August 15, 20196 yr This is a fantastic series, just as good as the Carnegie/Rockefeller one that preceded. Couple of things that stood out - I guess I should spoiler Spoiler The two guys stiffed by Hershey and Mars come together to make M&Ms? That is interesting. Post's daughter is a bad ass. She has the foresight to buy Birdseye, and nudges industry to manufacture and sell refrigerators to hold their product in markets and at home. That is incredible. I'm not an economist but that seems bass akwards.
