Mixing ingredients from a billion-dollar brand.

In the 1880s, a food distributor started selling a coffee blend to the the Del Monte Hotel in Monterey, California. Soon, he sold the coffee to third parties under the hotel’s name. In fiscal 2010, the privately-held corporation made a net $3.7 billion in sales. The ad for the chili sauce to the left is from the February 1, 1923 edition of the Rock Rapids (Iowa) Review.
